Blueair, a leading provider of indoor air
purifiers, has released the Android version of its air pollution warning App,
giving citizens living in India’s most polluted cities a means to avoid health
threatening airborne dust and fumes.
Gathering real-time air pollution information
from a host of monitoring stations in India cities such as Delhi, Mumbai,
Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata, the Blueair Air Quality App delivers it
directly to Android mobile devices.
“The Blueair air pollution App provides
Indian smartphone users an early warning system that gives them the opportunity
to take precautions against heavily polluted air,” said Vijay Kannan, head of
Blueair India.
Noting that 90 per cent of smartphones sold in
India are powered by Google’s Android system, Kannan said the Android
App release comes at a time when millions of people are being diagnosed with
breathing and skin health issues related to pollution from cars, trucks and
buses, industrial production and construction.
The Blueair Air Quality Monitor provides hourly
updates about street level air pollution in key cities around India to help
people enhance their health and wellness. The Blueair AQ Monitor empowers
ordinary citizens to take pro-active action to avoid airborne contaminants that
may endanger their quality of life and long-term health. Easy to install and
use, the Blueair AQ Monitor rates urban air quality on a scale from zero (good)
to 500 (hazardous) – and is updated regularly throughout the day. “A major
problem has been people’s inability to detect what is in the air they are
breathing, but the Blueair air quality Android app helps address that by giving
people the chance to finally monitor how serious their air quality is in real
time and do something about it to protect their health and wellbeing,” Kannan said.
