1. 2/5Not updated or correct information

   Fires are not being updated on a timely matter and some fires are not even showing up. A huge fire was near Lake Tahoe and there was zero information on this app about it. There was a fire very close to my my home and this app said it was zero% contained for over 24 hours while it was put out about two hours after it started! Some people feel they should be able to trust an app that says their going to do what they are supposed to do but not this one. How do I know which info is correct and which is wrong? Creates more anxiety for people who want to know what fires are around them.

2. 3/5Good app, small problem

   I’ve been using this app for about a year now, and I’ve been happy with it so far. However, I haven’t had to remove a property until now. I added two temporary residences a bit far from home because my partner went out to a wedding in some unsafe areas and I wanted to keep an eye out for them. However, now that they’re home safe, I can’t delete either property in my list. Every time I’ve tried, the screen goes black, the app crashes, and the property is still in my list. My notifications are being filled up for an area that I don’t need information for anymore, unless those fires spread out my way. I would like to be able to remove the properties so that I can see notifications for my home again without having to sift through all of the unrelated ones, please.

3. 1/5Junk!!

   Latest review: I finally got the app to install, but it’s awful. It reports a fire as active that was put out the same day over a week ago. Today it reports a fire that doesn’t exist anywhere within my area, but says it’s 58 miles from me. We don’t have any active wildfires today. This app must be just something they threw together along with the services they sell. I use PulsePoint and Google Maps to get up to date fire info. I deleted the app. First review: I downloaded the app to look at Colorado fires. I can’t get registered because the app doesn’t fill in the field when I type. I attempted to contact support and ended up leaving my contact info with sales. There is no Contact Us on their website. When companies do this kind of stuff, I have no need to use them for anything!!

4. 3/5App has a major flaw.

   I tried to set my address. The app could not find it and would not allow the suggestion drop-down menu to close. I had to choose an address from the suggestions to get it to close. Only then was I able to drop a pin in the map to give my precise location, however the app ignores it and now my home is in another state across the country. I deleted the app and started over. This should be a pretty easy fix but I can see how it might really frustrate a new user and cause them to find an alternative app.

5. 1/5Now “Predicting” Fires?!

   I’ve been using Frontline Wildfire Tracker for about 3 years and I’ve noticed the poor updates, time not appearing accurate, and other issues, but today was the final straw! There is an active fire with smoke floating over my house and some ash falling, from a fire 10 miles away. But Frontline says the fire was discovered at 9:00 PM tonight, 5 hours from now, and the latest update was 9:30 PM, 5.5 hours from now. It also says the amount of area burned is 0.10 Acres, but the about 20 square miles of area covered by smoke says a different story. I downloaded a new app and immediately found out the fire is over 150 acres and growing. I just deleted Frontline Wildfire Tracker, total junk.
