The official BC Wildfire Service app provides up-to-date wildfire information, helping you stay informed about wildfires and wildfire-related events and conditions across B.C. 

The app can be accessed on web browser and is available for free download in the App Store and on Google Play.

Data and information within the app comes from BC Wildfire service as well as various other sources. To learn more about what agencies are responsible for specific information, review the disclaimer. Information is updated in as near real-time as possible or when the information becomes available.

The app has undergone a comprehensive redevelopment and the latest version (Version 2.2.0) was released in May 2024. The platform’s user interface has been optimized for accessibility across mobile, desktop, and tablet devices. Future enhancements will be incorporated and released in 2025.
