1. 5/5Bring web features to mobile app

   The service is fantastic so this rating is for the company and the service it provides so that I can have peace of mind and know when it is safe to open my windows and let fresh air in. The mobile app is a bit cluttered and not intuitive. I also would like to see the mobile app have the same (or better) functionality than the mobile website. Specifically, on the mobile website I can see a map of my neighborhood and it is layered with dynamic points of interest, fires, wind patterns, and a heatmap. None of this is available on the mobile app, so to get this functionality I have to keep the mobile website open and come back to it, rendering the app a lot less useful. I would also make it easier to find the nearest air quality station by allowing the user to enter an address and have the search results show nearby air quality stations so that the user can select the station they prefer to monitor in the My Air section of the app. The AirVisual Earth feature is fantastic, very evocative: it is beautiful and compelling and disheartening at the same time to be able to see air quality around the world. Thank you AirVisual team for putting this tech and service out to the world for consumption, awareness, and perhaps even reflection.

2. 5/5Seeing is Breathing

   This Healthpro Plus XE arrived the second day into of an asthma attack ~ my daughter's. She loves her cat and our house here because of circumstance has four. She is also allergic to almost every medication under the sun, has sensitive skin and is triggered by other inhalants, household, cleaners, detergents, etc. We'd slept with the windows open that night, as the temps went down to 31 just, so she could breathe. Our household air quality read : extremely harmful. We plugged the IQair unit, left to go for a country ride, then came back in . We have a strange layout to our house, but within the hour, the air quality was reduced to 17! MY DAUGHTER, FOR THE FIRST TIME, COULD BREATHE IN OUR OWN HOME!! And she continues to. The next day she was breathing easily again. I push this to the envelope. I pulled out the fantastic spray and used it right around her some bleach which I have to use for our special needs clients.. both of these are huge triggers for her. The smells were familiar and the panic set in. I have an S02 reader here. Her read was 100 still; she saw it. It was in that moment she had to begin to retrain her brain into understanding, not all smells will rob you up your breath anymore here. Thank you

3. 5/5Did my research, get it

   I have lived in China for 3 years and have a two-year old boy. Once he was born I became more interested in what all the AQI apps actually did and started researching them. AirVisual is by far the best one I have come across (having used 10+ different apps). Not only can you choose to use the US index (which I would highly recommend) you also can see which pollutants are contaminating the atmosphere at any given time. I also have a laser egg (also highly recommended) which is a portable particulate counter and the readings on my mobile device and the closest monitoring station on the app are always within +/-20 meaning they are not contradicting each other. On other apps there would often times be a 50 point+ difference between what my particulate counter read and the other random apps I was using. Also, do note that some apps do, like airvisual, have the different pollutants listed and their levels but airvisual is the only app I have found that combines that with the ability to choose the US AQI standard. My go-to app when it comes to air pollution.

4. 5/5Your AQI in an app

   This free app can help you with information and forecasting of the air quality in your area. Since the 1970’s I’ve been personally interested in my home environment mainly because 3 of my family members, my husband & 2 children have hay fever in the Spring. We installed an electronic air filter in our furnace and air conditioning system which seemed to help immensely. Fat forward another 30+ years when we discovered the AirVisual app & their small device that could monitor our indoor air quality. Yes, using an AirVisual device is an easy way to monitor and improve your own air quality in your home. I discovered that NOT opening the windows to bring in a little fresh air was bad for us. Our carbon dioxide CO2 levels were getting in a higher range and causing headaches and lethargic behaviors. Being retired and at home most of the time, this became even more important to monitor our indoor AQI. Thank you AirVisual for providing the tools and information for a healthier lifestyle. 🥰

5. 4/5Broke by iOS 18.6.1

   I updated my iOS and updated all software available then in the App Store three days ago. I tried running IQAir today for the first time since the update and it crashed. I checked for more App Store updates and IQAir released something in the last 3 days that was installed but still crashes into a zombie state on my phone. I have closed all apps, restarted my phone, tried just running IQAir and the splash screen shows then it: goes blank, disappears, returns me to my phone Home Screen, but is still running and needs to be tossed. Please try again to get it working with iOS 18.6.1 on the iPhone 15 Pro. Still not working a as of August 21 on 18.6.1, but found 18.6.2 was just released and when I installed that, this AirIQ app started working again. Maybe AirIQ 7.2.? had only been tested on iOS 18.6.2-beta when it was broken and released weeks earlier on 18.6.1. I recommend installing the U.S. EPA’s AirNow app also as an alternative option for times like this. It also has good day-by-day forecasting depending on the quality of science at your state’s environmental agency.

   Very clear and straightforward app that shows current air quality and temperature in the units of your choice. shows the forecast and what the main pollutants are. it can send push notifications when air quality is becoming poor or dangerous

4. 2/5

   maybe if you live in well known parts yes but for someone who lives in the mountains it doesn't even read my location it doesn't exist and the messages I do get are inaccurate, it says clear skies but its very foggy and bad quality in the air
