User Reviews

Many reviews praise Aurora Forecast for its polished look and occasional alerts, but recurring issues undermine reliability. The dominant cons are inaccurate or misleading forecasts (notably 0% when aurora is visible), stale or slow data updates (maps/3-day forecasts), and bugs affecting features like widgets and AI. Users also complain about poor support/contact options and billing problems after trials. Overall, the app can be useful when it works, but reliability and support gaps are the major drawbacks.
Pros
  • Visually attractive UI/design.
  • Alerts can be useful for aurora viewing when the app is functioning.
  • Some users find the subscription worthwhile when the app operates correctly.
Cons
  • Forecasts frequently show 0% or otherwise inaccurate probabilities, misleading users about viewing chances.
  • Data and maps fail to update or load (stale 3-day forecasts, slow loading, or old data).
  • Widgets and AI features sometimes don't work or require extra purchases/subscription.
  • Poor developer support and communication, making it hard to resolve issues.
  • Billing problems and unclear charges after trial or subscription.

While I have a full year subscription I can’t get the widgets to display. All widget say a subscription is needed. I also can’t get the AI feature to work. I have an iPhone 17 pro max that fully supports this feature but I still can’t get it. This is a handsome application but the lack of direct communication is causing a problem I have not found a way to contact the author so I’m posting the problem here.

Do not update to the new version, you will lose the long term forecast! WHY DID YOU DELETE THAT???

I’ve downloaded this app several months ago, but despite receiving alerts and clicking on them, I’ve never had the viewing map load. The “wheel” spins endlessly, asking for patience, but nothing ever loads.
