1. 5/5App not updating

   Clicking on the inciweb tab makes the whole app shut down. Fire data does not appear to be updating. I’ve contacted the developer with no responses correcting the issues. I have noticed that all of the feedback is from a year or more ago. Edit 8/8/23: thanks for the correction. The app is working fine now, and the link to Inciweb is seamless and works nicely.

2. 2/5US “only”

   Until last summer (2023), this was the only fire-reporting app I had or needed. But in the aftermath of the wildfires in ON & QC and their severe downwind effects in the Eastern US, this app is now effectively sidelined because of the lack of coverage of Canada. I’ll be using another that does have this coverage, which tells me that the data are readily available and that the dev just needs to incorporate them. I hope that will happen, at which point I would gladly change my review to 5*s. I have two of the dev’s other apps — Snow Report and River Levels — which are great. I expect this would be as well with inclusion of Canada. 🇨🇦

3. 5/5Awesome support

   I saw something I’ve never seen before: the developer actually offering to assist a confused reviewer! I decided to chance it and bought the app. Noticed a small discrepancy and notified the developer, and he responded within the hour with professional curtesy and appreciation! The developer genuinely is concerned about his creation and how people like it and it shows! Concerning the app: fantastic link to NOAA data that is very timely and accurate! We could see the progression of the Pole Fire (Utah) and we could predict that some communities might be under threat, and then the public alerts for evacuations started coming from the local news. On the downside: the map could use a bit more detail regarding terrain, towns, and roads, as we had to translate the maps here with Google Maps to determine scale and location with surface features. How the developer can accomplish this is a bit beyond me, but would welcome to help where I can. Despite this one drawback, I must give this app 5✖️🌠🌟⭐️💫✨!

4. 3/5Missing Data

   My friend's house in Zuma beach is gone as of a few hours ago and several other friends I haven't heard back from about their homes in Malibu, TO, Agoura during the Woolsey fire on November 9, 2018. No data even showing for Malibu when much of it has already been evacuated and burned. I tried the zooming in and out. Yes, of course this app shouldn't be relied upon to save one's life. But it doesn't even show Malibu as a burn area as of 3:45pm when much of the area has already been burned. UPDATE- data seems to be coming in slowly. As of 5pm-ish data for Malibu burn area and Sta. Monica mountains is now showing. UPDATE- Also noticed air quality index isn't accurate either, maybe based on conditions without the fires. About 48 hours into the Woolsey and Hill fires still shows good-moderate all over the area. We are 50mi east of fires in Pasadena and the air out here is thick like burning tires. Can't go outside.

5. 1/5Small screen large information

   One problem I’m having is the fact that the legends and keys to the map take up at least 50%-60% of the screen making it hard to look i the surrounding area without having to fish to locations by small adjustments or zooming all the way back out and in again when on a new location. App should allow user to close the key down after reading it to show more of the map. Also there should be a method of setting up alerts. Perhaps that’s just user error but I don’t see a way of setting my location and getting an alarm if there is an approaching fire.
