Read environmental information on the go with NEA’s first iPhone app - myENV

NEA is proud to launch its new iPhone application on 5 July 2011 that can be downloaded from App Store for free. Known as myENV, which stands for “My Environment”, this application provides useful information on the environment to the public, such as air quality, weather information, as well as dengue clusters. They can also check on the gradings of food caterers and search for licensed pest control operators. Users can also provide feedback to NEA by sending pictures of environmental lapses which will be attended to in the same way any feedback is sent to the agency.

At the Integrated Urban Solutions Pavilion for the Singapore International Water Week 2011, visitors caught a sneak preview of the application where they could try it out on an iPad provided at NEA’s booth. Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong and our Minister Dr Vivian Balakrishnan enjoyed a first-hand experience with the application and was introduced on the key features by our CEO, Mr Andrew Tan.

Since its launch on 5 July, there had been overwhelming response from the public with more than 30,000 downloads so far. Currently, myENV is only available on iPhone. The app will be available on other platforms such as Android and iPad progressively. You can expect updates and new features such as crowd-sourcing and polls as NEA strives to leverage technology to enhance its operations.
