Description
This is the original TAS Fires app and is designed to provide up to date information about bush fire data in Tasmania, Australia for Android phone and tablet users.
The information is provided to you in both a searchable/sortable list and on a map to help the user understand which fires are of importance to them. The information can also be shared via social media/email and text.
It utilises data from the Tasmanian Fire Service RSS feeds on fires (https://fire.tas.gov.au), wind data from the Bureau of Meteorology (http://www.bom.gov.au) with your current location provided by the iPhone GPS. This app does NOT represent any government organisation.
Using this information the application is able to provide a list of fires showing the nearest ones first, helping you to understand your current situation.
The information is reliant on both the accuracy of the iPhone GPS and the data recorded on the TFS's website.
This application does not cache any data, so Internet access (either Wireless. 3G or LTE) is required to access the data.
Be aware that while P4G has utilised "best efforts" to provide this information to you, it is not intended to replace other sources of information on the fire situation near you. Also remember that fire and weather can change quickly.
All data is provided Copyright from the Tasmanian Fire Service and the Bureau of Meteorology.
If you use watch zones then it is possible that the application will store your current location at that time. This information is not correlated with any other user data, and can be deleted at any time. Please check the privacy policy at https://www.p4g.biz/app-privacy-policy.
This application and P4G do NOT represent the Tasmanian Fire Service or any other government organisation.

Had no trouble getting this to work properly (Samsung Galaxy 6). Makes monitoring fires really quick & simple. Set a home zone for notifications.
★★★★☆Chris Schulz· Apr 30, 2020
Really great app even if it looks a little "old". One flaw is that if you don't constantly clear your notifications in app, you get two notifications for each alert (one for the alert and one telling you that you have x notifications). Super annoying.
★★★★★Peter Baker· Apr 26, 2023
Given that it's too hard for the Tasmanian Fire service to create a fire app. And their website is useless on a phone, TAS Fires excellent.
★★★★☆Ollie Sutton· Jan 12, 2025
Could be updated for Androids more often, and actually listen to suggestions and or Emails.
★☆☆☆☆Greg Shea· Apr 17, 2022
Suddenly stopped working. Very unfortunate. It was a great app. I updated and it works now except the map
★★☆☆☆Paul Olendrowsky· Jul 8, 2025
Good for alerts but have just moved over to Samsung, and I am unable to add watch zones to it, I am unable to see the + button to add the actual watch zone.
★★☆☆☆Grant Williamson· Apr 8, 2022
Just switched over to Android (Motorola Edge 20) and downloaded this app, which I've relied on my IPhone for years - but none of the internal maps work! When setting a watch zone, viewing a single fire or all fires, the internal map just shows blank.
