#AeroHealth
AeroHealth started from a simple idea: everyone deserves to know if the air they breathe is healthy or unsafe. I was inspired by seeing news about air pollution and wildfires, and realizing that many people don’t get timely information when the air changes. I wanted to build an app that would help people check air quality quickly, wherever they are.
AeroHealth is a mobile app that shows real-time air quality readings for your location. It tells you the current Air Quality Index (AQI) and breaks down different pollutants, like dust, smoke, and chemicals in the air. If the air becomes unhealthy, the app sends you a notification so you can take care like staying inside or wearing a mask. The app also shows trends over time, so you can see how air quality changes each day.
To build AeroHealth, I used Flutter, a tool that lets you make apps for both Android and iPhone. The app collects data from online air monitoring sources as well as local sensors. I spent a lot of time making sure the app updates quickly and alerts are sent at the right time, not too many or too few. Building a simple and clear layout was important, I wanted anyone to use it easily.
Some parts were hard. Connecting to different data sources and making the alerts accurate was tricky. I also needed to explain air quality in words everyone can understand, not just scientists. Making sure the app worked well on all phones took lots of testing.
I’m proud that AeroHealth gives people easy, useful information to protect their health. Testers liked how clear the notifications and graphs are. The app even offers advice, like when to avoid outdoor activities, based on your profile and the air conditions.
Next, I hope to add support for more sensor devices, add AI integration services, let users report air problems, and share updates with schools and clinics. I want to keep improving AeroHealth so even more people can stay safe and make smarter choices about their air.
