Polar apps integrates Ambee air quality data

Ambee is pleased to announce that Air Quality Index Deluxe, the iOS app built by Polar Apps, now uses Ambee's hyperlocal air quality data. The integration brings accurate, location-specific air quality insights and 4-day forecasts directly to users, helping them understand the air around them before they step outside.

According to the World Health Organization, air pollution is linked to around 7 million premature deaths each year. Access to accurate, hyperlocal information helps people make better-informed decisions in response to changing conditions.

About Polar Apps and Air Quality Index Deluxe

Polar App's Air Quality Index Deluxe

Polar Apps AS develops consumer iOS applications with a focus on clean design and dependable data. Air Quality Index Deluxe gives users a simple, intuitive view of local air quality.

Bjørn Egil Jenssen, Founder and iOS Developer at Polar Apps AS, shared his experience working with Ambee:

"Ambee has been a fantastic partner for our new AQI app. The API was straightforward to integrate, the air quality data has been excellent, and the team has been incredibly responsive and supportive throughout the process."

Why hyperlocal air quality matters for consumer apps

People increasingly expect environmental information that reflects the conditions where they are, rather than city-wide averages. Meeting that expectation requires data that is accurate, reliable, and easy to integrate.

⚠️ Challenge: For many development teams, however, sourcing, validating, and maintaining environmental datasets can become a significant engineering effort before a feature even reaches users.

Ambee removes that complexity. Through a single API integration, developers gain access to present and forecast air quality conditions, allowing them to focus on creating great user experiences instead of managing data pipelines.

As Bjørn Egil Jenssen highlighted publicly:

"Integrating Ambee's AQI data into Air Quality Index Deluxe was a smooth experience, and I've been consistently impressed by both the data quality and the responsiveness of the team."

Ambee provides hyperlocal climate intelligence across air quality, weather, pollen, wildfire, natural disasters, and environmental events from deep histories to present conditions and long-term, forward-looking forecasts.
