This was the only app that successfully alerted us to northern light activity on our Nov 2024 trip to Iceland. Every time it sent a notification, we went outside and were able to capture some activity. None of the other apps did. Worth every penny for the subscription!

It really is very accurate and quick to update Great App It really is very accurate and quick to update
I’ve had this app for some time now. I think I downloaded it after the April 2023 event but bc I had this app I knew the aurora was coming a little b4 it was all over the TV. I don’t have the paid version and then BOOM HUGE SOMAR STORM hits and people in places that should never get to see the northern lights got to see them!! For me in the arm pit of the US(NJ) it was cloudy all the night but I was able to coordinate going outside with breaks in the clouds thanks to this app. I probably shoulda upgraded to the paid version bc fake god knows what I missed. It saved me from staying up all night the following night bc I could see that the aurora never made it lower than the Hudson Bay while it was dark near me so I just put the camera out and went to sleep!! You never know when these storms will hit but having juuuuust a little more info about it than the average person is definitely worth the download and dang it I wish I upgraded during the 5/2024 event…. Oh well I hope I’m alive the next time we get a G5 solar storm AND THAT ITS CLEAR but if I am ill have this app handy! It was fun to see 3% chance for aurora in your area and it was right!! Couldn’t see with the naked eye but the time lapse video will be burned into my memory forever! And if I ever decide to travel and see the lights I would ABSOLUTELY upgrade and pay for the service. I never review apps but felt I wanted to thank the developers of this app bc I really had a lot of use for it bc of the weather in my area!! Thank you!! FINALLY!!!!!

Wow, I'm impressed. This app is a science lesson on Auroral and solar activity and provides a ton of useful information. I'm most interested in knowing ahead of time when to head outside to see an Aurora but I also want to learn more about solar activity. Thanks for a great app!

Works great but it would be nice to be able to set the time frame for alerts. I don’t need to know during the day as they won’t be visible. Very good app! Works great but it would be nice to be able to set the time frame for alerts. I don’t need to know during the day as they won’t be visible.
