Our Story:
At the height of Australia's worst-ever bushfire crisis in 2019-2020, our founder found himself nearly trapped by a devastating fire on Australia's south coast. Tragically, not everyone was so fortunate. In such critical times, key information was lacking: the direction of the fire, its intensity, when to evacuate, and the status of escape routes. Even firefighters were struggling to get a clear picture. Motivated by this experience, we created Bushfire.io with a simple goal: to provide the vital information people need to make better decisions during natural disasters. Over time, we've incorporated user feedback to make Bushfire.io the go-to platform for emergency information in Australia and beyond.

Ratings and Reviews
Great App but…
Great app and very useful but it would be great if you could create larger regions for notifications. I’m in Western Australia which is a big state, in order to cover it all I would have to create hundreds of different notification areas.
Small hiccup with the update
Crashed my phone after the update and the app wouldn’t open - just gave a white screen - deleted the app and downloaded again - seems to be back to its usual great performance
Developer Response ,
Thanks Redd. Glad you were able to get it back. No one should be without Bushfire.io! Don't hessitate to reach out at contact@bushfire.io if you have any further problems.
Regards,
Mark
Fantastic tool
I love this app, it combines just about everything you need to see. I really love that you can see the aircraft and hotspots. Weather reports on screen are sensational.
Super useful on the field and in IMT.
