Description
You used to schedule your activities according to the weather, now you can do the same with pollution!
Is it the best time to go for a run? When should I go for a walk in the park with my children? The Plume Air Report informs you in real time about the pollution level of your city and how it will evolve in the next hours. You then receive tailor-made recommendations on the best time to do your favorite activity without getting overexposed to pollution. Our users love it: “Works great! I rely on this beautifully-designed app and its notifications everyday: when pollution peaks, I avoid biking to work or dining on a terrace.”
And it works pretty much everywhere! As of now we provide over 200 cities worldwide (New-York, London, Paris, Shanghai, Beijing, New-Delhi, Tokyo...) but we keep sourcing new ones every day.
Last but not least: Receive notifications with the pollution forecast for the day, and be the first aware of a pollution peak thanks to our alerts!
Previous releases got featured by Product Hunt while Techcrunch praised our “Weather Forecasting App For Urban Air Pollution“ : “Plume Air Report strikes the right balance between providing insightful information about air pollution and not being too complicated. It’s a pragmatical approach to air pollution.”

Customer Reviews
Effective, clear, useful.
The data visualization/interface is intuitive, effective and powerful. I have not analyzed the accuracy of the data, and I am sure that in a large city such as Toulouse it might be inaccurate depending on where you are, but as far as using it as a general indicator as when to plan our outings with our infant, it's useful. I wish there were more data samplings that would allow the app to differentiate pollution levels between a secluded park and a major motorway. If this could tap into amateur data readings, that would be ideal!
Great tool-
This app provides wonderful information on air quality. This is especially helpful because I have a small daughter and want to protect her as much as possible. However, we live in a smaller city and the app only update every few hours, so it is not always reliable in real-time. It's great for a historic view of air quality. To see the typical times air quality is bad/good.
Good but not accurate in large city
The air varies from neighborhood to neighborhood in NYC so Plume is not very useful when it gives a single reading for the entire city. I do see it as useful when I visit my parents in the suburbs though as they live in an area that is that is geographically smaller.
