Aurora Forecast and Alerts

Features & Capabilities

Key features include short-term hourly forecasts with weather and moon illumination; long-term 3-day and 27-day forecasts; location-based probability of seeing the Northern Lights; current auroral activity derived from KP indices; solar wind data from NASA satellites; and a local-time display (not UTC) with customizable alerts by location, KP thresholds, solar wind values, or time of day.

User Reviews

Users appreciate the app for its rich aurora data and customizable alerts, plus a clean UI. However, it suffers from stability issues, data accuracy and clarity problems, infrequent updates, location-management limitations, and purchase/support problems. Overall, the concept and UI are strong, but reliability and ongoing maintenance need attention.
Pros
  • Rich aurora data including KP index, Bz, horizon/above probability, and forecasts.
  • Customizable alerts and notifications.
  • Intuitive UI and helpful visualizations of current auroras.
  • Affordable lifetime subscription provides good value.
Cons
  • Crashes and stability issues (app closes or won't stay open).
  • Data accuracy and clarity problems (cloud cover often wrong; percentages unclear).
  • Lack of updates/maintenance (not updated for long periods).
  • Location management issues (only current location by default; difficulty adding locations).
  • Purchase/subscription problems and limited support.

This app did not open for more than 5 days when it was a prime time. It doesn’t even give heads up or anything, if this was maintainence outage, to their paid customer. Such an unacceptable service level. WASTE , don’t trust this app for your once in lifetime opportunities to be missed because of their incapability. If there was -ive star I would have given that

This app was really good in the beginning but you can take see what no update in two years caused in an app. I’m sure Ann so updated would solve the issues but until that happens I’ll have to use another Aurora app. The app crashes immediately upon opening. No information can be viewed at all. I’ll be checking back for updates…. Hopefully

No longer opens. Thought it was a glitch, but its been constant for a week on an iphone 15. Perhaps the creator should update older apps instead of creating all new ones with the same features…
