AirCasting | Air Quality APP Download

AirCasting | Air Quality is an open-source environmental data visualization platform that empowers individuals and communities to monitor air quality in real-time using health and environmental monitoring devices like the AirBeam. The app serves as a central hub where users can collect, visualize, and share data on air pollution, contributing to one of the largest open-source databases of community-collected air quality measurements ever created.

The application offers a dual mode of operation: mobile mode allows individuals to wear the AirBeam for personal exposure tracking, while fixed mode enables users to set up the device indoors or outdoors to continuously monitor pollution levels. This flexibility makes AirCasting a versatile tool for various stakeholders including educators, city managers, and citizen scientists who are invested in clean air initiatives.

However, the app does face some criticism regarding its functionality and user experience. Users have reported issues such as connection troubles between the app and the AirBeam, and limitations in reviewing past data sessions. The developers are aware of these issues and have made efforts to resolve them through updates. Despite these drawbacks, many users appreciate the intended purpose of the app and the community-driven aspect it supports.

In summary, AirCasting is a valuable tool for anyone interested in tracking air quality and advocating for healthier environments. Its open-source nature and community focus highlight the importance of public engagement in environmental health and policy-making.

Developer Response

Please do the following: 1) Turn your AirBeam off, plug it into a computer using the original USB cable that the AirBeam3 came with and allow it to charge for at least 24 hrs. 2) Uninstall and reinstall the AirCasting app. 3) Turn your mobile device off and then back on. If after taking these steps the problem persists, please follow up via email.

You can see values if you're watching them in real time, but if you want to go look back at previous sessions you've recorded, the graph doesn't work. Also, it can't seem to find 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi so you can only use it over Bluetooth if you don't use cellular.
