I finally had a non cloudy night to see if this app works and wow, was I impressed. It told me an approximate time to head outside and within 5 minutes I spotted auroras. Definitely recommend this app.

useless app. never show the right information even when Aurora Australia is up. I was standing in front of the aurora and the app said 0% visibility 🤣

Doesn't actually alert you when the Aurora is visible in your area... missed out on a great show because the app didn't notify me. What's the point of having alert options if it doesn't actually alert you to when it's visible?

Love this app! It's an easy to use app and works with weather forecasts, app users and tracking. What's best, you can set alerts as well

Wonderfully easy to use and understand. Very accurate. I've not been bothered by ads! Definitely worth the download.

Awesome app. Free app but because it's so well put together and easy to use I bought the pro version, but this is my 4th phone and I bought pro version on the previous 3. Don't know how to recover my previous purchases. Glad to support this awesome app

114 mb of background data usage in 10h, is this a Trojan or a bug? I didn't even open the app in the last few days...

not entirely accurate. I'm in northern Ontario, it was showing Grey on here, but it was booming in pretty good. Also, they need alerts from NASA regarding CMEs to give us a heads up.

Every time I get a notification that says chances of seeing the aurora are high, I click on it, it opens the app and in the app it says chances are 0%. Useless and misleading. I'm not sure what this app is supposed to do, but I'm not getting anything out of it.

great on keeping up to date on current and future events of aura and very informative on all aspects of the sun and weather patterns like cloud coverage and stuff....very interesting and useful tool for the avid and rookie sky watchers... highly recommend this app

You really need to fix this app not sure you are doing it so we have to upgrade to the paid version but it always says 0% chance of seeing in my area even though I was looking right at it and taking photos of it and it was everywhere in my area please fix this

If you follow all the prompts this app will totally change your phone. Im normally more aware as im agreeing to stuff and this one got me. It made me download this weather now launcher that took over my homescreen and everything else. It looked like a different operating system. Pissed me off bad. I figured it out and uninstalled it. Not cool though. AT ALL!

All settings correct but didn't receive any notification. I live in the Lake District and the aurora was epic the other night, but due to no notification I was asleep and only knew about it the following day through seeing other people's photos and on the news! Very frustrating and a waste of time!

So I downloaded the app because I was headed to northern Maine and heard the lights might be visible. And they were! However I didn't get notified because little did I know the app has a "don't send notifications during the summer" checkbox that is checked by default. So I missed the event entirely. Would be better for a user to get one useless notification and have to check that box than to get no notification that would have been useful and miss a fairly rare event in the northern US

This app is awesome! The details and quality in this app is incredible & fun to explore, the ocean for example is so detailed with I'm assuming elevation was so fun to look at. Love it has live cam option, viewers photos, the sun update photos (I do wish it would give a description on what your looking at with the sun, such as the giant hole thing or the different colors between photos) Best part is its free, no annoying ads or pop-ups, ur loosing nothing downloading it.

I'm so happy with this app! It's full of intersting worldwide forecasts and live maps. You can opt in for notifications when the aurora conditions are good for that night, or within the hour, which is so cool. I do wish the app gave more local prediction data (like historical trends for the area I'm in). It would be nice to see what seasons I should plan to have outings in for my area.

i absolutely love this app. because of it I was able to catch a small glimpse of what people in the poles and surrounding areas get to see most nights. so easy to use and as far as the ads go, you can hardly notice them. thank you so much for designing and keeping this app running so people like myself who lives in MA get to prepare for a bucket list moment!!! even if you are too far to see for your own eyes its still a good app to have because of the live webcams and the pictures users share.

Extremely accurate. Not sure about the cloud cover in the map. It's unrealistic and looks horrible. The cloud percentage is also inaccurate. I just want to see the probabilities like we used to have. I know I can toggle to it to off but wish we could save our settings so the clouds do not load at all. I've used this app for years and recommend often. @toddgravenphotography on IG and FB. Thx for your help!!!

No notification. Only found out after the fact from news story that it might have been visible in my area. (Yes, all my settings are correct) Updating my review weeks later. There is indeed a chance for us to see the Northern lights where I live but yet again this app did not provide a notification even I have set it up absolutely correctly. This app is worthless. I am uninstalling.
