VIC Fires for Positive User Reviews

✓ Thumbs upLove the app. Especially how you can view the map as a satellite image. This gives you by far a better idea as to where the fire is and potentially how devastating it can be..Legendary-1Version: 5.2.2

✓ Great app!!Great app! Clear, easy to understand and very informative! It’s great seeing how many trucks are sent and then the classification of safe/ responding/ under control is great!!.ArchmilVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Awesome AppHave been using this App for a number of years and it is awesome. Very accurate and informative..AusnobleVersion: 5.2.1

✓ UnreliableRecently this app won’t open or crashes. Suggest maybe an update is required?.1289754oashVersion: 5.3.5

✓ Vic firesVery useful. Especially on very risky days. Lots of info and very good rain radar..Chubby nurseVersion: 5.4.7

✓ INFORMATIVEI find Vic Fire App very informative with up to date details on fires. As l live close to bush land l find this info critical and either puts my mind at rest or l have to action our fire plan 🔥.Chris from The BasinVersion: 5.2.2

✓ A instructional script would be helpfulRecurved a quick response on how to select your choice of watch zones from the developers which was pleasing. To select your own individual watch zone, go to the map and zoom in on the location you wish to watch. Hold your finger on that spot and it will come up in the watch zone add screen. Select Add and your done. You can select multiple watch zones.DeserningVersion: 5.3.3

✓ Missing automatic building fire alarm call outsWould be great if we could see the fire indicator panel alarms again in this app.Wally123aVersion: 5.4.2

✓ Peace of mindAs a travelling musician, with friends all over the state, I call this app my peace of mind in the fire season. Thanks for keeping it so up to date and easy to use!!!.EmfiddleVersion: 5.3.5

✓ Reliable and clear information about ‘events’Thank goodness that this app is easy to use. The ability to provide reliable and clear information about ‘events’ which doesn’t need to reset to consistently when exiting from an incident information link, unlike the ‘State’s Emergency Service’ app. Please keep this app running as it’s fantastic..Sharkybabe32Version: 5.3.3

✓ Where is it safeIt’s a great app when traveling around Victoria through the bush to let you know if it’s safe.Outback chefVersion: 5.3.3

✓ AppI like the app loads instantly and gives me accurate up to date info. I live in Wonga Park so I’m watching and listening to it till end of March these days. Thankyou.Callaghan LVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Needs a better LegendNeeds explanation of what the different coloured shaded patches are. They aren’t mentioned on the legend. Probably it’s more obvious when there are not so very many fires. As far as I can work out, the “i” icons are each related to a shaded area but it is hard to work out which “i” goes with which patch. I initially thought the yellow patch stretching all the way up to Albury depicted the borders of a massive fire, but my relatives in the area assure me they aren’t burning, so I assume it goes with the air quality warning icon? It wouldn’t hurt to have a Help page for new users to explain the basics of how to read the map..A-PityVersion: 5.3.3

✓ AviationGreat asset too fire agency pilots opening OzRunways hopefully will see the other states added soon.B 356Version: 5.4.8

✓ Fire AppGreat app. I use it all the time. Keeps me up to date and you need that in a fire zone. Keep up the good work. David..ButstrucksVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Some map notifications missingI have set my watchzone up to include Bribie Island, Caboolture etc .. currently there are couple of fires on Bribie but nothing is showing on the map, yet on mainland its working.. is Bribie excluded from map markings and incident listings or something ?.Useless at bestVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Comprehensive and clearVicFires gives me a large amount of information in useable format. I can see what is happening around the state while restricting my notifications to just my watch zone. As a plus I also found the support to be quick and friendly..ArdeetVersion: 5.2.1

✓ Vic firesIt would have to be one of the best apps ever. For safety and security where any fires are at any given time. Thank you. Ron.Goulburn riverVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Very helpful appI use this app constantly living in a fire prone area. The information is vital to my decision to leave during high fire danger days.CeeGee28Version: 5.4.2

✓ Maree DalgleishQuick notifications & very easy to understand & read. Have recommended to many people👍.Super NarnyVersion: 5.2.2

✓ Fires in my areaI only want to know of fires in the area I choose. I don’t want to see all the fires in the state mainly being in the Melbourne area. They fill up my page and I just don’t want to know about them..Peterh543Version: 5.2.2

✓ Super helpfulI really appreciated how very up-to-date the app is with fire information! the other day when I was driving on back roads in country victoria. I saw smoke and checked the app, and realised I was heading straight for a quickly growing new grass fire..Grasshopper18Version: 5.2.2

✓ Thanku for this appIt’s a relief to have this app, thank u to all the people that update the information & are involved with this app. The information is so well presented & accessible..RelaxIngGoalVersion: 5.3.3

✓ Best fire app out of the lot.Been using this app since it was first released. Better than the Vic Emergency app! Don’t ask how this magic works, but this app shows fires before (and more accurately) Vic Emergency does. Recommended for all rural people..Very crankyVersion: 5.4.7

✓ Keeps me informedI can see what’s happening locally, and get notifications of anything nearby..PlapenVersion: 5.3.3

✓ Jay PosterinoI think this app is one of the best Fire and Emergency app I’ve ever used. Not bagging out EmergencyAUS or EmergencyVIC but this app is way better then those 2. Its very accurate and has more detail then the other ones do. Great App !.Jay PosterinoVersion: 5.2.1

✓ ReviewGreat app. Far better than the vic emergency app, quicker with up dates and much more informative. Well done.53bossyVersion: 5.4.12

✓ BrilliantGreat app - I was able to see what fires are around, how far away, and how serious. It also shows other warning like trees down and thunderstorm/asthma alert. Thanks so much.LianeMzVersion: 5.3.1

✓ Good, but requires fixesThe app is quite good, however, the ‘watch zone’ function does not work (it will delete the watch zone you enter off its list within minutes. Additionally, you cannot search for a location by entering an address, you have to search for a location in the map which is cumbersome)..BabortsVersion: 5.3.1

✓ FiresIt’s great sometime fires look closer than they are Ie today’s burn off at Briag along looked close from Munro website reassured me that it was a Burnoff.Fire consouseVersion: 5.4.2

✓ Fire appA great app keeps me on the know of all the fires for I have family in the country so it also gives me a piece of mind..Kreig734Version: 5.2.2

✓ Essential summer reading.Being able to quickly find out where nearest bushfires are gives relative peace of mind. This informative app provides all the data required to know when to stay, or go, and in the safest direction..Vagabond ArtistVersion: 5.3.3

✓ Must have appExcellent app. Great for keeping up to date on local incidents, especially on high fire danger days..Peeved PatientVersion: 5.3.3

✓ Top appWorks well, very handy and a safety net. Only one complaint, there is a yellow skin all over victoria and makes it hard to see under it..DelapanVersion: 5.4.2

✓ Great and reliableEasy to navigate clear quick and reliable information So fantastic that it has wind speeds and wind direction from weather stations across the state I don’t even bother with the other fire ready app hard to navigate and not user friendly this one’s excellent.Lil lumpkinVersion: 5.4.2

✓ Brilliant app. Reliable, informative, everything you need.All the information you need, in a fast reliable app. Far superior to fireready and vicemergency. If you want a fire app that loads well with a poor mobile signal ( typical in hilly high fire danger country), includes fire info., wind (essential), even fire hotspot info., is simple to use (I have found this critical when there are fires nearby, because you start getting stressed and have many fast decisions and actions to take), does alerts, sorting, filtering, etc., nothing beats this. I'd be happy to pay serious money for this app because I continue to depend on it. The Government apps have been more than disappointing..CountrymaniaVersion: 5.1.0

✓ CFA Victoria Fire App.This App. is very informative and up to date. Allowing you to set perimeters for your own area will hopefully give you time to leave if the need arises. Would recommend this to residents who live close to the city but amongst open forest areas..HL-DBVersion: 5.3.1
