Description

The Utah Air application employs Utah Division of Air Quality's new air quality alert system that consists of action alerts, represented by three basic symbols that signify the voluntary or mandatory actions (e.g., carpooling, wood burning) the public needs to adhere to the current pollution levels, and health guidance, based on the EPA’s Air Quality Index (AQI) that helps determine how the highest pollution level of the day will affect people with various health conditions.

Utah residents can check into the app daily to know when not to use wood and coal burning stoves or fireplaces, the best times to exercise outdoors, or make one consolidated trip for errands based on current conditions and trends. The three-day forecast can help individuals plan ahead to adjust their travel plans or work schedule to avoid adding harmful emissions during winter inversions or during the summer Ozone season.

Lacks clarity; not user friendly.

I downloaded this to determine when I can use my fireplace. The display seems to give conflicting information, and the three-day forecast includes the current day, and the prediction for the current day (bottom of the screen) often does not match the symbol for current conditions (top of the screen).
Generally speaking, in good with technology and I am an excellent reader, but this app seems to require scientific understanding that is not common knowledge and is not explained in the app. All I really want is a simple, “Yes, you can use your fireplace now,” “voluntary restrictions are recommended,” or “No, don’t burn thing right now.”
I’m also not sure which location is nearest my home. There are several stations in my county, but most are named after I-don’t-know what. Only one station name is a city name that is familiar to me, and one location literally says, “near road,” for a county that is a major metropolis.

Buggy app

This app has become really buggy, and often crashes upon trying to open it. I keep having to delete and re-download it. The main screen frequently doesn’t accurately reflect current conditions, I always have to go to the trend charts to get a more reliable view.

Great app but please update/fix

5 stars for great app that I use all the time. I’m keeping an old iPad just for this app. It appears to no longer works on the newer iOS devices. That is why I think it starting crashing every time I try to open it on my iPhone 7 but worked fine on earlier iPhone models. PLEASE update this app to work on newer iOS devices or fix whatever bug is shutting it down immediately on the newer devices.
