Watch Duty, a wildfire alert app developed in Sonoma County, has seen explosive growth following recent devastating fires in Los Angeles. The app, which provides real-time updates and information on wildfires, has gained millions of new users in the past week.
Watch Duty relies on a network of volunteer and paid monitors who track emergency radio traffic and provide crucial information to users. The app has become an essential tool for residents and first responders alike, providing critical information during fast-moving and unpredictable wildfires.
Watch Duty is free to use and is supported by donations and memberships.
