15 Positive User Reviews for Pollen Wise

Dust Allergy

I really like this app and recommend it to others! For me, it's all about the "Dust" levels, as this app is the best app when it comes to information about the Dust levels in other air! This app covers more allergy alerts in several areas, such as Gras, Trees, Mold,-- which is why I recommend it to others. The other feature I love, is when I travel, it allows you to enter the city you are traveling to check on what the air quality and allergies are for that city. This is my go to app every m

Still the best pollen data available

Version 5 has had some major hiccups, with some users unable to view data. The current update seems to fix the issue for almost all users, and the developer is responsive and can assist with some workarounds if you still encounter the issue. Once resolved, everything is business as usual: PollenWise is still the best pollen information available, with counts from automated sensing stations updated multiple times a day. If you have allergies and know what you’re sensitive to, the app presents

Pay Wall

It was a pretty great app until they put everything behind a paywall. $4.99 is too much for an app like this. It’s just not worth it.

Great improvement to show High pollen time for each day

Really help me plan better. Version 5.5 brought back specific information and made it better than Version 4 by showing the High grass pollen time.

Real air quality information

It is so great to get a timely, complete and accurate assessment of air quality conditions. Better yet, specific to your part of town. A must have app for anyone with allergies or a compromised respiratory system.

So happy to have my local monitor at close status!

I am severely reactive to environmental allergens and suffer asthma attacks even after brief periods of being outside. PollenWise is the only app that lets me plan outside excursions with confidence.

Reliable accurate information

Key part is how far away your this app is from the actual testing center. In my case I’m only about a half a mile away so the information is very accurate for my particular area.

Sensor Always Far

I don’t really understand the long post from the devs on sensor distance, anywhere I go the distance is “very far.” If I’m in SoCal near LA… it’s very far. If I’m in Sonoma County (which is like a mold hot spot) still very far. Now in Sedona… very far. I just don’t know how to trust the accuracy at all and wish there was a more reliable app to track mold

This app talks a big game

…but doesn’t really deliver. The pollen counts are erratic and don’t correspond to my symptoms, the symptoms of my friends, or to what other pollen trackers say. The app claims the sensor is “very close” but refuses to disclose what that means. My guess: on the same or neighboring continent. But it gives a dust reading, which none of the others do, and that’s valuable.

Dependent on their sensors

The allergy levels are dependent on an allergist or hospital buying and installing one of their sensors. The nearest sensor to me is “very far” in Austin while I live near Houston. The weather and allergens is very different in these cities. If they had a sensor close to me, it would be my main tracker.

5 Negative User Reviews for Pollen Wise

Used to be pretty good, but…

Ruined with the new version. They got greedy, put everything useful behind a paid tier, and made it impossible to know up front what you have to pay for access. PMs and marketers really did a number on this one. I would have gladly chipped in before all the bad vibes.

New format

DON’T LIKE THE NEW FORMAT!

Always too far!

I live in an urban area yet the monitoring station is always “Far”. Perhaps the data will get better?

Used to be great

I’m actually a little sad to delete this app. It was amazing when it was first launched. But there hasn’t been a pollen sensor in my state for I can’t remember how long. A year? More than that? That’s especially frustrating, since this company is based in Utah, and I live in Utah. They can’t seem to get/maintain a sensor in the state they’re based in. Maybe the company is going under. I guess Allergy Plus will have to do. I don’t know how often they update their data. But even once a day is vast

Not so great

If there is a sensor that is nearby this app was great. However the sensor near me is gone and now the closest sensor is not close. This app is no longer useful to me
