## BC Wildfire Service Reviews in Canada

### ***** "Lots of Information"
I use this app regularly and find the details on each fire super helpful. The map always loads a little slow at first, but seems to function well after the first few seconds.
-- CFC123123, 2024-08-21

### ***** "Works great!"
Lots of information and appreciate the notifications.
-- SPF 76, 2024-08-20

### ***** "Well done!"
I rely heavily on this app and the information resources it provides.

This year, my usage involved situations where I was staying in areas under Active Evacuation Alerts.

I particularly appreciated the feature that allows me to record my places of interest for push notifications.

I also tried the &quot;Save an Incident&quot; feature and found it very useful.

One suggestion I have is to consider developing a version of the app optimized for low network scenarios. I often found that when I had only one bar of signal (which was common), the app&#039;s overhead made it difficult to refresh information.

While this may be a challenging requirement, it presents an opportunity for improvement.

Overall, well done! The ongoing evolution of the app and its services is a testament to quality public service. Thank you!

### **--- "Cluttered Map is not easy to use"
iPad version. Once you tap on smoke forecast you can’t get rid of it. You have to tap Out Fires for it to go away. These tabs are in the way when you need to zoom out to read cities. It was much better before. And what’s with the Dashboard being within the app sometimes but other times it goes to a web browser? To say this is being used for safety reasons and doesn’t work is an absolute disgrace! I have to keep googling fires to see if one is near me. It’s high time you fixed it because we are in are worst part of fire season right now.
-- wickedfairyxx, 2024-08-10

### **--- "Buggy hell"
The app had a nice visual update at some point, but now it is actually even more unusable, and will randomly glitch after using the map a bit.
-- 👍🏻 Discord Fan! 👍🏻, 2024-08-10

### *---- "0 star rating"
New app sucks, how do i get old version? As a contractor with bcws this app is totally useless!
-- TH Contracting, 2024-08-10

### *---- "Do better"
This is horrible
-- LeonBrass, 2024-08-05

### *---- "Not updated adequately"
A fire in my area went from about 73 hectares to 14745 hectares overnight. There was not proper and timely updates. When you are relying on accurate information this is not this app. It could put people in danger and you could lose everything try to rely on it.
-- Not Impressed 141, 2024-07-28

### ***-- "Every year"
I’m be use this for the last 3 years.  As an older person who only used the News or websites for fire info I’m amazed at the tech. 
 The Pro’s : Once a fire is posted it is very good with updates. The evacuation orders are also immediate. The notifications are pretty instant and I enable them every spring.  Over all very cool. 
The Con’s :  Many times I’ve learned of a fire in my vicinity via  a locals FB post in a locals group page before it’s posted on the app even tho fire fighters/planes have been dispatched.  Sometimes the delay has been several hours which is concerning. Luckily most times these delays are not fires in very close proximity to dense or semi dense populated areas. But if you live in the country as I do this is cause for some concern.  
- I assume that once a fire is confirmed someone is immediately entering into some system. If that’s the case why would the app not be linked to it so that people can get the fire alert instantly as it’s entered into the BC Fire system.  It feels like it’s done separately causing the delay.  The updates - cause &amp; size can come in that few hours later as things are assessed.  But for those in the back country or very rural areas can be alerted first thing.  

Over all I says it’s a fantastic tool and having lived on an  evacuation line for most of last summer it was an EXCELLENT tool for updates.
-- vintagelifter, 2024-07-27

### ***** "Great"
Works great and the new update in the last year or so improved a lot of features
