This really works!

I was in Iceland, hoping to see aurora’s, but it was very overcast, and I was bummed after a week that I would never see anything.
I found this app, and activated the alert system. I got an alarm, saying the odds were good, and I drove to the place they recommended. I saw one nearly instantly. I love this app, it saved my bucket list trip!!
The next day, I used the cloud cover part of the app and waited for the KP numbers to peak, and I drove somewhere near me, guided by the app’s cloud cover map. I got to see one again before I left!
Love it!!

More info please

Our friend downloaded this app on her phone when we vacationed in Norway. It seemed pretty accurate in alerting when we could see the northern lights. I have heard people say the northern lights have been seen in Montana & Wyoming, so I bought the app. No luck in these parts so far. However, I like checking the app frequently. While much of the info on the app is self explanatory, there are some color codes or items I would like explained as to their indication. I may find I have been assuming wrongly all this time. Also, some of the fonts are very small, unable to allow zooming-in and I can only read them by looking through a magnifying glass. 🌌Still hoping for an alert telling me I can see them in my part of the world 😊

Fun to use

This is a great app! You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure this app out. Everything is is very intuitive. The Pro version is nice. It only costs a one time cost of a couple of bucks and you can share the app with one other user. One you understand the legends (every section has explanations) the graphs make sense. After using the app a few times, I had every thing down pat. Plus…… NO ADS!
