What the app adds

  • Status where you stand

    The app can use your phone's precise location, so you get the answer for the spot you are standing on.

  • Notifications

    Get a notification on your phone when burning closes where you live or on a day you registered to burn.

  • When you lose signal

    The app shows the last status it had and how old it is. An old answer is never shown as Allowed. Check in needs a connection, because we must confirm the live status.

No app? Use the website

Everything works on beforeyouburn.com in any phone or computer browser: check the status, register a burn, check in and report that it is out. You do not need to download anything.

What you can do

  • Check the burn status at your location or any address.
  • Register a burn and check in on the day.
  • Say "I'm not burning", or report that your fire is out.
  • See your fire agency's contact details and call them.

The app and the website are free, in English and Spanish.
