Ratings and Reviews
Bring web features to mobile app
The service is fantastic so this rating is for the company and the service it provides so that I can have peace of mind and know when it is safe to open my windows and let fresh air in. The mobile app is a bit cluttered and not intuitive. I also would like to see the mobile app have the same (or better) functionality than the mobile website. Specifically, on the mobile website I can see a map of my neighborhood and it is layered with dynamic points of interest, fires, wind patterns, and a heatmap. None of this is available on the mobile app, so to get this functionality I have to keep the mobile website open and come back to it, rendering the app a lot less useful. I would also make it easier to find the nearest air quality station by allowing the user to enter an address and have the search results show nearby air quality stations so that the user can select the station they prefer to monitor in the My Air section of the app. The AirVisual Earth feature is fantastic, very evocative: it is beautiful and compelling and disheartening at the same time to be able to see air quality around the world. Thank you AirVisual team for putting this tech and service out to the world for consumption, awareness, and perhaps even reflection.
Seeing is Breathing
This Healthpro Plus XE arrived the second day into of an asthma attack ~ my daughter's. She loves her cat and our house here because of circumstance has four. She is also allergic to almost every medication under the sun, has sensitive skin and is triggered by other inhalants, household, cleaners, detergents, etc. We'd slept with the windows open that night, as the temps went down to 31 just, so she could breathe. Our household air quality read : extremely harmful. We plugged the IQair unit, left to go for a country ride, then came back in . We have a strange layout to our house, but within the hour, the air quality was reduced to 17!
MY DAUGHTER, FOR THE FIRST TIME, COULD BREATHE IN OUR OWN HOME!! And she continues to. The next day she was breathing easily again.
I push this to the envelope. I pulled out the fantastic spray and used it right around her some bleach which I have to use for our special needs clients.. both of these are huge triggers for her.
The smells were familiar and the panic set in. I have an S02 reader here. Her read was 100 still; she saw it. It was in that moment she had to begin to retrain her brain into understanding, not all smells will rob you up your breath anymore here. Thank you
Did my research, get it
I have lived in China for 3 years and have a two-year old boy. Once he was born I became more interested in what all the AQI apps actually did and started researching them. AirVisual is by far the best one I have come across (having used 10+ different apps). Not only can you choose to use the US index (which I would highly recommend) you also can see which pollutants are contaminating the atmosphere at any given time. I also have a laser egg (also highly recommended) which is a portable particulate counter and the readings on my mobile device and the closest monitoring station on the app are always within +/-20 meaning they are not contradicting each other. On other apps there would often times be a 50 point+ difference between what my particulate counter read and the other random apps I was using. Also, do note that some apps do, like airvisual, have the different pollutants listed and their levels but airvisual is the only app I have found that combines that with the ability to choose the US AQI standard. My go-to app when it comes to air pollution.
