A quality-aware nearby station
The default public reading is a named PurpleAir station selected using distance, freshness, and data quality—not distance alone.

A map worth exploring
See the whole picture. Understand one place.
AirLocal keeps the stations on the map—the point is to see what is happening around you—then turns any one of them into a calm, legible story.
- 01 Dense by design, legible in usePublic station markers remain the primary layer while each provider keeps its own identity.
- 02 Freshness is part of the answerEvery reading carries its source and observation age, including honest delayed and unavailable states.
- 03 Detail when you ask for itOpen a station for history, comparisons, alerts, favorites, and sharing—without leaving the map.
Source truth
Named. Timed. Never quietly swapped.
Air quality is only useful when you know what produced the number. AirLocal keeps each source explicit instead of blending unlike readings behind one vague score.
A separate named monitor
Official current conditions and the regional outlook remain clearly labeled. AirNow never appears silently under the Nearby PurpleAir identity.
Your air, straight from the source
For PurpleAir Zen and Flex owners, AirLocal reads the sensor directly on local Wi-Fi first and preserves a real 24-hour history on the iPhone.
Designed for real life
Useful before you open it.
The calm surface is backed by deliberate behavior: honest widgets, selective alerts, direct local readings, and privacy choices you can actually understand.
Your location is for finding air—not following you.
Exact phone coordinates stay on the iPhone. AirLocal has no account, advertising SDK, cross-app tracking, or data-broker integration.
- No account required
- No ads or cross-app tracking
