I found the app to be clear and easy to use. There are many sensors in the field of varying quality so yes there are different numbers as another reviewer has noted.. The app descriptions are clear that local conditions can also vary in signficant ways. It pullls together an excellent overall picture of the current Canadian fire smoke problems of late June 2023.

Easy to use app that provides you (potentially) life saving information. Too often, government apps are a cluttered mess of information that is difficult to comprehend and use quickly. This app, on the other hand, perfectly displays what you need yo know an the opening screen, and allows you to easily get additional (location based) information if you want it. More agencies need to model this app for how to get information to the public. This is what it looks like when the government works!

This App has been really helpful during the Canadian forest fires. I get real-time data all day and it even shows 3 different stations for my town.
