I live in South West Oregon & there has been a large fire in Agnest, Oregon for a couple days & wanted to find specific information on this fire & nothing. So far, not impressed
No bueno
I have driven past active fires, and gotten texts from others first. This does not report much and if it does, it’s all over. Not what I want. I could read the newspaper for more timely notification.
Fire app
I think another feature you may want to consider adding is a smoke overlay/layer and a layer to show burned areas.
Love this app though and we use it often because of where we live.
Great for quick reference.
I use this for quick yet detailed reference. Easy to use. Very satisfied.
Fire status
We have had fires active for more than a week, burned homes and towns. And they don’t show up until the fire is almost out.
What good does that do?
Helpful
Great to be able to avoid fires when traveling
Great app in my line of work
As a Yellowstone NP tour guide, it's really helpful to have information at hand. This app gives me a lot of info easily on the fires that visitors are concerned about. Thanks for job well done.
Accurate and reliable
This app works every time. The information is updated regularly. Lots of good info.
Great
Seems more up to date than other reports I get. So simple, so easy.
Great app
This gets info before a lot of the public service sites get it posted
Excellent App.
Makes it easy to find information on fires near where I live.
Informative
This app has gotten better over the years. I like that it pulls information directly from websites like Inciweb.
It would be even better if Canada were included.
Easy to use - keeps me current
Keeps me current on local fire situations. Really nice interface
When a fire is near ... it can get pretty nerve racking!
We really appreciate having an app that helps let us know how close and how contained the wild fires are to us. This summer there is one near us almost every few days :(
Great App!
Really like this app. Have tried umpteen different apps but was always disappointed by something, that is, until I found Fire Finder.
Worth 99 cents
Easy to use , covers progress on containment and app useable on my Iphone 6. The others aren't
Happy
Great app so far. Nice to have the updates and see how things are going. Pictures are nice too on done fires. I would recommend highly
Awesome fire app
I strongly recommend this fire app it can save your life🚒
Good fire finder
As a firefighter and frequent traveler it is a good way to keep up on ac I've fires in places where I travel so I can avoid congestion with emergency traffic
Could use road closure info too
So far so good. Road closure info would be very helpful along with evacuation status updates. 👍🏼
Convenient and easy way to stay informed
This is the best most convenient source to stay up to date. Love seeing all the pictures
Failed to list current fires in Oregon as of May 16th 2019
The only current fire listed is the fire in Alaska, they have failed to provide information about other fires in Oregon
Brian
As a former federal wildland firefighter firefighter, any and all sources of information is desirable.
Fair but slow on updates
Slow on updates
New fires going in Oregon and it does not show them. They are on BLM land
Not kept up to date
Does not appear to be kept up to date, so what good is it?

A tiny fraction of fires are reporting
I want to love this, but only a tiny fraction of Washington's current Forrest fires are reported in this app right now. 😥
Not worth the money
It’s not worth the money. The app works like 5 year old app that should be free! If you just search it, you’ll get the same data with more details, free of charge!
Errgh-
I am trying to find an app that will alert me to wildfires within a 50 mile radius of me. This is not that app. Can I get a refund on my purchase? Just got the app minutes ago and am already deleting it.
Not up to date. It’s a few days behinds
Not very useful when it’s not current
