This app does NOT state that a forest protection ban is in place. THIS IS A FAIL WHEN YOU GET A FINE!!!

Definitely needs further development. I doesn't show where the active fire bans are on the Map. Just gives you the lists of the areas for each category. But once you've looked at the list and exited it won't give you the category choices again. Also once you've searched a place it won't give you the keyboard to search for another place.

This is the worst made app I've ever used! Unless!

Could very well be the worst app ever. Out of date, leggy doesn't describe it. Freezes (when it even works)... Par for anything government run or created though. Can you not just pay a third party to run this program properly?! I'd settle adds if it ran properly.

Map shows us still under a fire ban, when we're not. Ban was lifted 2 days ago. This is for Android, my dad's iPhone has updated map. Not reliable.
