This app needs much more to improve, First of all improve graphics and the performance of app, as the app is not like user friendly and doesn't eye catchy, and add more locatioms in the app.. If I minimize the app, it should know which city I had choose but it vanishes and I have to select that city or location again.. So please improve your app, so that many people can enjoy it..

This app does not show the Air quality of your current location. It is only focused on some big metro cities. Do not download, waste of time.

It's a outdated app... Each time it's displaying a different AQI that is not exactly matching with weather outside. Need improvements- 1. location map 🗺 should be there. 2. Real time AQI should be displayed... It's raining outside and your app is saying very poor weather... What the hell it is? 😜 3. Don't pick up the salary only... Please do some good work for nation... For our government employees.

Its a good app in terms of purpose. But for it to be useful more cities should be added. No South Indian cities so far. Hopefully it will be added in the future. For someone like me who is in Trivandrum, this serves no purpose for now. Good initiative overall.

Seems not being updated regularly or periodically in real time. Many a time same old data get displayed. Need optimisation for better quality and addition of more cities and more stations in available cities.

This app is a worst attempt from govt. Only four city's data are available. There is no option to choose others one. It's a very good attempt so I ask the developers to resolve this problem.

About this app

The SAFAR (System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research) is a project of Ministry of Earth Sciences, Govt. of India having distinction to develop India’s first ever Air Quality Forecasting system SAFAR for Metro cities. This is the 2nd version /Update of the MobileApp where based on the feedback and public demand, following new features are added:
(1) It has been made Multi-lingual. Languages are English, Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati –spoken in 4 SAFAR cities.
(2) An excellent feature of Voice service is added which can be listened by clicking the speaker button.
(3) The detailed advisory and precautions are added. To make it more attractive, an animated Flag boy is added who will change the color of flag based on the quality of air from Green to Maroon. The expression of boy will also change and Flag gets lifted up as Air Quality worsens.
Many of you raised an issue as to why this service is available in just 4 cities and not in other cities. I share your concern and deeply appreciate. However, expanding such services requires lot of financial resources and time. One SAFAR station requires minimum cost towards 10 AQMS, 10 AWS, super computer cost for forecast, emission inventory cost, outreach cost and so on. Depending on priority, projects are approved. We expect to expand it in future but not in near future as it stands.
