Fire Watch and Alerts
Utilities
Free
Real-time wildfire alerts for your home/live location, powered by satellite detection, live maps, and reports from neighbors nearby. Know before it's too late.
Fire Watch keeps you and your neighborhood informed about wildfires before they become emergencies.
SATELLITE AND COMMUNITY DETECTION
Fire Watch combines NASA satellite hot spot data with reports from real people to build an accurate, up-to-date picture of wildfire activity near you. A single satellite detection or camera-verified report flags a possible fire. Independent confirmations from others turn it into a confirmed alert, so you get a clear signal instead of noise.
REAL-TIME MAP
See confirmed fires, potential hot spots, and official fire perimeters on one map. Tap any marker for details, including photos submitted by other users.
SMART ALERTS
Set a home location and a watch radius, then get notified the moment a wildfire is detected nearby. Choose which alerts matter to you: confirmed fires, possible fires, or a daily fire risk score based on local weather.
REPORT WHAT YOU SEE
Spot smoke or flames? Snap a photo with Spot a Fire. An on-device model checks the photo before you can send a report, so alerts stay accurate. Community confirmations help turn a single report into a trusted, broadcast alert.
TAKE IT WITH YOU
Turn on optional background location to get alerted about fires near wherever you actually are, not just your home, plus occasional "do you see it?" checks that help keep everyone's information current.
BE PREPARED
A wildfire prep checklist, evacuation resources, and a simple way to photograph your home for insurance records help you get ready before fire season arrives.
LIVE CAMERAS
Watch public wildfire cameras or add your own. An on-device model continuously checks camera feeds for signs of fire and lets you know right away.
Fire Watch is built for communities who want an early, honest picture of wildfire risk, not just another notification stream. Stay aware, stay ready, and help keep your neighbors informed too.
