Dear ‘Pollution’
I dont often arbitarily post thankyou mails, but here I go!
I have your app on my I-phone and now use it regularly. When it indicates a high level of pollution, I take more precautions – which have led to a reduction of the worse effects on my asthma.
A great app – a lifesaver!!!
Many thanks,
