Walking and jogging route planning

Air Quality Router

Estimated AQI, route distance, data freshness, and daily availability come together so outdoor plans can favor cleaner routes and better hours.

  • Target AQI presets
  • Cleaner-hour planning
  • iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch

App Store links will be added after launch.

Outdoor planning

Practical AQI context for everyday movement.

Air Quality Router compares nearby route choices, checks cleaner time windows, and explains recommendation quality without treating estimated AQI as a personal exposure measurement.

Target AQI

Cleaner-air targets without alarmist language

Good 50, Balanced 75, Flexible 100, and custom 25-150 targets shape route and window recommendations, with caution when sensitive groups may benefit from lower targets.

Route ranking

Plain-language route reasons

Route cards pair estimated AQI, distance, halfway time, freshness, and signal quality with reasons such as best estimated AQI nearby or similar AQI with a shorter walk.

Cleaner hours

Outdoor windows with follow-through

Availability windows, local notifications, missed reminder catch-ups, and Calendar review keep walking and jogging routines connected to the latest route check.

Data and privacy

Freshness labels make changing air-quality data easier to understand.

Air-quality data can be recent, forecast-based, cached, or limited. Air Quality Router labels these states in plain language so recommendations stay understandable before a walk or jog.

Freshness context Recent readings, forecast estimates, cached guidance, and weak-signal states stay visible.
No ads or third-party analytics Diagnostic logs remain local unless shared manually during support.
Routine support Daily summaries, route-window reminders, Calendar review, and scheduled routes keep planning connected.
Planning notice. Air Quality Router provides estimated AQI route guidance for awareness and planning. It is not a personal exposure measurement, medical advice, emergency guidance, or a safety guarantee.
