Wildfire Ready Virtual is a utility app that helps you to understand how prepared or unprepared you are for a wildfire. You can download it for free and use it to take a survey with a virtual representation of your property displayed. By answering a series of questions, the app will let you know how safe it might be.

In Wildfire Ready Virtual, users navigate their way around a virtual home and look at all the areas that might be improved from a fire safety point of view. For example, the app will ask about vents in your home through which airborne embers could enter. It asks you to make an honest assessment of your own home.

Check your wildfire preparedness

Use Wildfire Ready Virtual to explore a virtual property so that you gain a better understanding of your own safety measures against possible wildfire outbreaks. As well as a virtual tour and survey, this free utility program provides educational data about wildfires in the USA. The app raises awareness about the dangers of wildfires and the countermeasures that mitigate them.

What is the best wildfire app?

In addition to Wildfire Ready Virtual, there are numerous strong wildfire apps available to download. A good example is Bushfire Tracker: Fireguard, which monitors the progress of wildfires as they occur. Another is Firemap – Live Wildfire Map, which performs a similar function. However, this app is for preparing for outbreaks rather than checking on them.

A free app for wildfire readiness

Although there is a 3-D representation of a house in this app, it doesn't truly offer a virtual experience as its title suggests. However, it is a helpful educational tool in preparing for the dangers of wildfires.
