About this app

The AIRNow Android application will provide an increasingly mobile public with real-time air quality information that people can use to protect their health when planning their daily activities

The app will allow users to get location-specific reports on current air quality and air quality forecasts for both ozone and fine particle pollution (PM2.5). Air quality maps from the AIRNow website provide visual depictions of current and forecast air quality nationwide, and a page on air quality-related health effects explains what actions people can take to protect their health at different AQI levels, such as “code orange.”

App has some good information, but the contour layer on the current maps never loads so it's impossible to get an idea of how the air quality will look over time. Sometimes, my local experience varies wildly from what they have on their site. I have switched to using their website with much better results, but would be happy to return to the app if it gets an update.

The only problem I have with this app so far is I can't see the entirety of the contents of the sidebar menu. It shows part of "Air Quality Index", and then I can't see the rest because I can't scroll. Makes me wonder what other information it has, because that's an informational option. Other than that, I haven't had problems when it comes to actually viewing my air quality. The notification system works well, but I do wish it notified me every time it crosses into the next index level.

Doesn't give real time data? I don't know. The website data is always several hours delayed. This doesn't give a time stamp of when it was last updated. Also doesn't let me see nearest monitors, and I'm in between several. Useful for doing a quick check of different places I'm traveling to though. But the website is probably easier to use, although much slower loading. And then load again to get actual monitor location data... So slow.
