Description
Aurora Alerts is an app designed to monitor real-time auroral activity and push alert to let you know if there may be aurora borealis (northern lights) visible tonight. Whenever you are home or away, Aurora Alerts will notify you if the possibility of seeing the northern lights exists. Main features: - short-term aurora forecast for next hour with weather conditions and moon Illumination - long-term aurora forecast for the next 3 days with weather conditions - long-term northern lights forecast for the next 27 days - show probability to see Northern Lights based on your or custom location - current auroral activity (based on observed and predicted Kp Indices from U.S. Air Force Weather Agency) - weather forecast to check visibility conditions before planning to see northern lights - solar wind data directly from the NASA satellite (wind speed, Bz, Bt and density) - unlike many other apps, it uses the local time instead of UTC Alerts: - when northern lights may be visible at current or custom location at the horizon or overhead - Kp index reaches chosen value - solar wind data reach chosen values - you can filter out alerts based on time of the day Boost your chances of viewing the northern lights!

App crashes
I bought app worked for one day now I click on it goes black back to apps will not work. Thanks for the tip off
Crashing
The app crashes whenever I try to load it. What is going on here?
Ripoff
Get billed daily for something that should last for 30 days. Even after purchasing the next day app indicates subscription expired. No more. Waste of money
Aurora alerts
It was working fine until now. Every time I open it, it crashes.
Love this app but…
I use this app exclusively for aurora info. I was using it just fine over the last few days including today then all of a sudden, it keeps crashing no matter what I do. Whats up with that?
App stopped working
App immediately crashes and closes
Great for Essential Info
I never used the alerts, so no info on that. The cloud cover information as well as the KP info were invaluable on our Alaskan trip. We had KPs of 4 and 5, but with complete cloud cover, no aurora. Rather than walking outside in sub-zero temps, I checked the KP and cloud cover % on this app - no reason to go outside if the cloud cover is over 70%. It was highly accurate for my exact location, although I did learn that the aurora doesn’t care what my app says, it shows up when and where it wants.
Information is not accurate
The information I have found has not been accurate.
App shuts down when I select long-term forecast
Just downloaded this and I’ve tried to select a long-term forecast a couple of times, and when I do, the app shuts down. Everything else on it appears to be working for the short term, I purchased the alerts and have yet to see if they’re going to work
Quit working
I updated to iPad OS 14.8 and the “long forecast” started dying 1-5 seconds after I clicked it—kicked all the way out of the app. I reinstalled the app and now it wants $1.99 again to reenable it. The “restore purchases” button does nothing and the mailbox for support requests on the website … is full. I don’t know if this is a scam or incompetence but the effect is the same for the user.
