The higher the AQHI number, the greater the health risk and need to take precautions.

Great app to help people understand realtime air quality. Includes a tips section that suggests actions to reduce air pollution. Additional tips could include. Switch your gas stove to electricity. Switch your gas hot water tank to electricity Switch your gas furnace to a heat pump Switch your gas car to an electric car. Switch your gas fireplace to an electric fireplace

Great app, especially during wildfire season in BC! I'd greatly appreciate it if you could include the air quality sensor readings for Metro Vancouver NW and SW as the app only currently has the readings for NE and SE.

Life saving app, a must have if you have a lung disease, COPD. Set alerts for the area and the AQHI stage you want to be informed about. Easy to use and no ads.

Anne McC

Not for BC, unfortunately.

Would like to know "why" a particular area has an index value. Is it PM2.5? Forest fires? General pollution? Etc.
