Watch Duty is the only wildfire mapping and alert app powered by real people giving you real-time information vetted by trained professionals, not robots.

We aim to keep you informed and safe with real-time updates and alerts. Wildfire Tracking Features: - Push notifications about nearby wildfires and firefighting efforts - Real-time updates as conditions change - Active fire perimeters and progress - Infrared satellite hotspots from VIIRS and MODIS - Wind speed and direction - Evacuation orders & shelter information - Historical wildfire perimeters - Street and satellite maps - Air attack and air tanker flight tracker - Save locations for quick access on the map Watch Duty is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our service will always remain free of charge and free of advertising or sponsorship. You can support our mission with a $25/year membership, which grants access to special features as a token of our appreciation. Disclaimer: Watch Duty is not affiliated with any government agency.

It is crazy that an app like this didn’t exist before. The other county/state run maps are hard to understand and follow and certainly don’t alert you in real time. My husband and I found ourselves in the path of one of the LA fires and watch duty saved us and gave us peace of mind when making the decision evacuate. Thank you!

This was a lifeline during the epic LA wildfires in Jan 2025. I was tracking it constantly and it sent real time notifications which actually came before the LA County mandatory evacuation alerts hit my phone. I had to evacuate immediately when I got the mandatory evacuation orders but I was prepared thanks to this app because I was already packing my go bags and pets due to the app’s notifications. I don’t use this app much now but I was more than happy to support it by paying for a membership in order to keep all the great free features free in the future.

I find this app very reliable and much easier to read than CalFire or other options. Everyone in my neighborhood circle was checking it constantly during the January 2025 fire season.

We started using Watch Duty when the first round of fires hit LA in Jan 2025, since our daughter lives in the area. The information was frequently updated and the interface easy to use/understand. I’m most impressed that it’s run and staffed by volunteer reporters who are former fire fighters themselves, so the info is very detailed. It’s a valuable resource.

With the cutback in the National Park service, which will affect firefighting this year, I thought I would get the paid version of this app. I thought the price was OK however when I clicked membership the price I was charged was much higher. I have emailed them about this we’ll see what happens.

I was able to monitor fires for homes of immediate family members as they were working or participating in their teams or school events.
