Freezing and Crashing

2023-12-03

So far it seems to still have a lot of bugs to work out, before it runs smoothly.

Lol

2023-11-13

You lost me when you required my phone number to sign up. It’s bad enough how many spam emails I get from signing up for these kind of apps but I am not going to also let you sell my phone number. Plus bad reviews tell me FrontlineWildfireTracker isn’t worth the hassle of spam calls. I’ll just stick with cal fire.

No go

2023-12-22

Pretty useless if I can’t get it to recognize my address. Not sure why that really needs to be entered just to view a map. I would think the zip would be sufficient enough.

Map won’t work for me

2024-01-23

I’ve checked for updates. Map won’t show any of the fires. Even when I click on the updates “view on map” I can’t see the updates

I don’t exist

2024-03-17

Made an account, got the email, entered my address and, even though it auto fills to the 4 digit zip, it then say no address exists. Can’t progress.

At least they got my email address to sell.

Never accurate

2024-09-16

FrontlineWildfireTracker used to be my favorite but it’s never accurate anymore. I will get a notification that there’s a fire in my area and it’s actually been out for several days, or no notification at all. Even after updating FrontlineWildfireTracker , still not accurate.

App has stopped working

2024-09-16

FrontlineWildfireTracker worked great at first. Recently, it won’t let me add properties, won’t let me edit or delete some properties, freezes or blows out. Have asked developer for help. They answered me one time and then ignored me.

Not good!

2024-09-20

This is a pretty lousy app in the sense that he asked for too much personal information. He wants to know your email, your name, your address, and cell phone number. I imagine he wants access to your location and maybe even contacts, that part I don’t know because I stopped registering when he asked me for my cell phone number and the address. Most of these type wants to know your location. I want to have to give me information about fires in any area that I want, no just close to my house.

Worked for a couple hours.

2024-02-13

FrontlineWildfireTracker was great at first. It did as it was supposed to! Then after a couple hours, it crashed and would never open again. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. It opened once and none of the features worked in FrontlineWildfireTracker , and then it wouldn’t open again.

Not useful

2024-02-16

Half the time it doesn’t show the fire on the map. The map is horrible. I get notifications on updated fires that I follow way too often with no new updates. There’s not enough information on the map. It takes like 24 hours before fires are updated if they are even updated. It’s just kind of a waste of time. I clicked to show evacuations on the map and it doesn’t show the perimeters.

Disappointing

2024-10-17

Expected FrontlineWildfireTracker to have info on fires, nope. Only very basic, and old news at best. Very limited features

Not updated or correct information

2024-09-23

Fires are not being updated on a timely matter and some fires are not even showing up. A huge fire was near Lake Tahoe and there was zero information on FrontlineWildfireTracker about it. There was a fire very close to my my home and FrontlineWildfireTracker said it was zero% contained for over 24 hours while it was put out about two hours after it started! Some people feel they should be able to trust an app that says their going to do what they are supposed to do but not this one. How do I know which info is correct and which is wrong? Creates more anxiety for people who want to know what fires are around them.

False Alerts

2024-09-21

This just keeps giving me multiple alerts per day about a .1 acre fire that has been out for days. Deleting.

Not the best app

2024-09-21

FrontlineWildfireTracker doesn’t update frequently and isn’t always right they say there is a fire when there isn’t I would recommend using watch duty instead

Not much there

2025-02-21

Although it does notify you of a fire nearby and will list them on a map, they are not listed by name. the fire information is rarely updated. If and update is provided, you only get the fired name but it does not show you were it is.

Doesn’t like my address

2025-03-22

There is only one line for an address. I put in my street number and street then the city state and ZIP Code. As I typed, the message to put in a valid address was still there so I cannot set up an account. Shouldn’t there be a line for the street, another for the city another for the state and another for the ZIP Code?

Poor

2025-04-23

Very rarely updated, even with fires nearby.

App has a major flaw.

2024-08-01

I tried to set my address. FrontlineWildfireTracker could not find it and would not allow the suggestion drop-down menu to close. I had to choose an address from the suggestions to get it to close. Only then was I able to drop a pin in the map to give my precise location, however FrontlineWildfireTracker ignores it and now my home is in another state across the country.

I deleted FrontlineWildfireTracker and started over. This should be a pretty easy fix but I can see how it might really frustrate a new user and cause them to find an alternative app.

Good app, small problem

2024-08-23

I’ve been using FrontlineWildfireTracker for about a year now, and I’ve been happy with it so far. However, I haven’t had to remove a property until now. I added two temporary residences a bit far from home because my partner went out to a wedding in some unsafe areas and I wanted to keep an eye out for them. However, now that they’re home safe, I can’t delete either property in my list. Every time I’ve tried, the screen goes black, FrontlineWildfireTracker crashes, and the property is still in my list. My notifications are being filled up for an area that I don’t need information for anymore, unless those fires spread out my way. I would like to be able to remove the properties so that I can see notifications for my home again without having to sift through all of the unrelated ones, please.

All perfect

2024-05-05

All in all i think this is a great app. However I'd like to see a pause or stop button on the animation. Please make it easier to see how close wildfires may be approaching.

Wheres the outliness

2025-10-11

alittl hard to find the fire perimeters. update needed.

Issues With App

Thumbs Up

2024-06-25

Nothing but great things to report about FrontlineWildfireTracker. It can take awhile to get used to the map system but otherwise straight forward information.

Wildfire Protection!

2024-06-30

Extremely useful. App notifies me before I even smell smoke in the air or the sky changes color. I'm always the first in my family and friends of potential threats and updates.

I Feel Safer and More Connected

2024-06-29

My husband is a wildland firefighter and I can keep track of remote wildfires when he is away. I feel better connected to him and his safety thanks to Frontline.

Quick Quick Quick Notifications ✅

2024-06-25

More useful than other weather and governments apps. The apps notifications are quicker than "official" statements released. #1 app on my homepage.

Better than Public Service

2024-06-25

This is an absolutely bueatiful app, with some great functionality that makes it a superior replacement for local fire alerts.

One Step Ahead

2024-06-25

Living so close to a national park is always a concern for forest fires. I LOVE the Frontline app because I feel more safe, protected, and alerted about any local wildfires in my area. The interface is easy to use and the notifications are immediate.

Good update

2026-06-14

2024-06-25

great to find an app with precise and up to date information. would definitely recommend FrontlineWildfireTracker to anyone who is looking for wildfire safety and prevention tips

Concise and comprehensive

2024-06-25

Very user friendly. Offers concise fire info including local weather, your location’s danger risk, where fires are currently burning, and pertinent check lists of what to bring and things to consider in the event of an evacuation.

Awesome

2024-06-25

I've lived in Oregon since getting out of the military and every year when the seasons change from spring to summer and fall we have wildfires. We didnt have much of a notification system in effect but nowadays thanks to Frontline we have great updates and notifications for fire safety prevention. The maps are crystal clear and easy to navigate and the resources provided are ESSENTIAL for fire prevention. Try it and you will see for yourself.

WildFire Preparation

2024-06-25
