I just wanted to congratulate the AirGradient team on the app they recently released. It’s really, really well done!

Thank you for the feedback @earnerd! We really appreciate it!

Is there anything you would like to see improved or added? :slight_smile:

One thing I noticed is that, within a location, the PM2.5 over time figure for 180 days does not plot correctly. It does not plot the last 6 months of data.

A couple of other small things come to mind, like dark mode, a smaller widget, and the ability to also arrange locations manually.

I’ve only just started using the app. It’s very personal, but I really don’t like the graphics. I regard the function as scientific and the UI looks childish and thus inappropriate to my eyes, just my opinion. For functionality, I really value being able to compare data to other benchmarks, so the comparison monitor feature is great from my perspective. However, unlike comparisons set on the dashboard, the app requires one to set it on every use; if it remembered this setting it would be more convenient.

I have to agree. The graphics look more like a Japanese kids game or cartoon, and the inclusion of spam, ads (even if for yourselves) and anything other than just monitor data made it a deal breaker (andthing mentioning “recommendations” is promising “spam” and I found no means to disable that nonsense). It’s already been deinstalled, as it appears to offer nothing of value beyond the web based dashboard, but a far, far, larger footprint.

Good concept, just needs work.

Hi @Tim_Bee & @tadawson, thank you so much for your honest feedback.

Currently, the dashboard remains far more powerful for scientific purposes. The app serves as an easy way for general users to quickly see the air quality data and to create awareness about air quality for the general public.

Anyway, that could be great if the app serves both audiences effectively. Your thoughts are noted. I’ll bring this up with our development team as we are constantly improving our mobile app.

Please feel free to share more opinions. That will be really helpful for us to know what our users are looking for. Thanks!
