Hasn’t been updated in years. Uses stale data now so it’s completely useless. Should be pulled from the App Store.

Worked well, but ios updates have introduced bugs where it won't update the aqi for months on end, showing old data. Developer has abandoned the project on github.

A couple years ago I could see the numbers on outdoor sensors in my area. Now I only see indoor sensor numbers. Why?

This was a great app. Unfortunately, it is no longer functional. Within the last few years the data feed stopped working, though, and stale data is permanently displayed. This is actually dangerously misleading since there is little indication of the age of the data. The developer has not updated it for years and has not responded to any issues on the repository either. Fundamentally unusable as a result.

Not sure if it’s just inaccurate or if the data isn’t updating, but even on very smoky days it’s saying that the air quality is really good. That’s just not true. Something is wrong with it and I suspect it’s been this way for at least a month.

I’ve noticed that the air quality sensors have not changed in 2+ months. They’re all reading green in my area regardless of EPA or Purple selected. Yet when checking other apps or Apple weather I’m getting health warnings with drastically different readings at the same time. I’m very upset I’ve been using this app the whole time post-fires, this is a huge health hazard to be misleading people.

This app has a map widget! Now I don’t have to consciously check; there’s just a map starting at me whenever I check my phone. This will prevent at least one asthma attack for me as smoke season begins, and probably more.

With this release, you can toggle between the default EPA air quality readings and the raw PurpleAir air quality numbers that you see on the PurpleAir web site. While the EPA numbers more accurately represent US EPA air quality, so many users have asked me about the discrepancy, I wanted to provide access to both in the app. Please keep the feedback coming!
