10 Positive User Reviews for Firesource

I like this app, but…

As a few others have mentioned, a horizontal format would be useful. I’d also like to be able to sort the active fires by distance to my location in addition to the times the fires started. Thanks for all your work on this important app.

Too hard to view fire perimeters

Things I want to know right off the bat: where are the fires, how big is the active/burned area, what direction is it moving, and what’s the air quality. While this app does have perimeter info, it’s too hard to find for each fire and should be displayed on the map by default. But I do really appreciate that the app also has air quality. I always feel like I’m fighting with the bottom menu to stay minimized, it keeps popping up and takes 1/3 of the screen. Even the minimized version of the men

App is very easy to use and linkage to external information is excellent

Need this for iPad viewing

You commented on the wrong app. This app is mediocre at best

Then they did an update and added Irwin reports. Now, I can see where a fire started and that’s it. It has been a couple of years and not only is it still not giving any important information, but the developers
