A mobile app that visualizes your local air pollution by converting it into an equivalent number of cigarettes smoked daily.
Shoot! I Smoke is a mobile application that converts local air pollution data into an equivalent number of cigarettes smoked per day. It uses real-time air quality measurements to help users visualize and understand the health impact of pollution in their environment through a relatable analogy.
Environmentally conscious individuals, public health advocates, and anyone interested in monitoring local air quality through an intuitive mobile interface.
It provides a unique, tangible way to comprehend air pollution by translating abstract PM2.5 data into a personal health metric, making environmental data more accessible and impactful than traditional air quality indices.
See your city's air pollution measured in daily cigarettes. iOS/Android.
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Translates abstract PM2.5 data into daily cigarette equivalents, making air pollution relatable and easier to grasp for users, as highlighted in the project's philosophy.
Built with Expo for React Native, enabling deployment on both iOS and Android with a single codebase, evidenced by availability on the App Store and Play Store.
Uses the World Air Quality Index API to provide up-to-date pollution readings for any location, enhancing data accuracy and relevance.
Leverages EAS Update for over-the-air updates, allowing minor fixes and features without resubmitting to app stores, streamlining maintenance.
The README admits the codebase has minimal tests, with only a few spec files, which increases the risk of bugs and complicates reliability for contributors.
Requires managing multiple external API keys (e.g., GEOAPIFY_API_KEY, AQICN_TOKEN) and configuration, adding overhead for developers building or customizing the app.
Relies heavily on services like AQICN and Geoapify; if these APIs change or experience downtime, the app's core functionality could break, limiting control.
