    Have had this app for over a month now and absolutely love it. This app has let me keep an eye on wildfires in Northern Nevada and all over California especially in Southern Cali where my sister lives. Yes there are ads but you can chose to open or close them in the free version. Since downloading this app I can count on 1 hand how many ads I have seen. Would recommend to anyone living in an area prone to outbreaks of wildfires.

    I’ve been using this app for a couple years and love it. I live in fire country and this app provides a needed service. I do not mind seeing ads in exchange for this service. But after a recent app update, I am now seeing invasive, full-screen ads that will not allow me to exit until they have completed the 5-second countdown. This is a serious problem and they need to update it to get rid of the invasive ads. When people are looking for vital safety information, they shouldn’t be forced to watch ads. Stick to the smaller ones that show up in the corners. I’m fine with those. Your users are here to view vital safety information. We are not playing a video game. Many people don’t have 5 seconds to waste while waiting for information about wildfires. I find this unsafe and disrespectful.
