Aurora Lens
Capture the Northern Lights
$4.99
Turn your iPhone into a smart northern lights camera that auto-tunes to your location. Get a 4K timelapse and a photo. Plus real-time alerts, forecasts and a live map.
Everything for the aurora chasers in one app: an aurora optimized camera, forecast with smart alerts to track the auroras, and a live aurora map.
Seeing the northern lights is a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Aurora Lens makes sure you keep it forever - even the auroras too faint to see with your own eyes.
Rest your phone on a tripod or any steady surface, press the shutter, and Aurora Lens captures a 4K timelapse of the aurora over the next few minutes. No manual settings, no photography experience required.
Smart calibration
The moment you press record, Aurora Lens reads your local aurora forecast and tunes the camera to conditions automatically - so you get the best possible capture whether the sky is glowing or barely stirring.
Features
• A fluid 4K timelapse video, saved straight to your Photos
• Real-time aurora alerts, including active storms
• Aurora forecasts for your location
• A still frame from your session
• A live aurora forecast map for your location
• An Apple Watch companion to start, stop, and monitor from your wrist
What you'll need
A tripod or a steady surface to rest your phone on - that steadiness is what keeps the stars sharp and the aurora smooth.
Whether you traveled across the world to chase the lights or caught them by surprise, Aurora Lens helps you capture the magic in stunning detail.
We're dreamers and aurora chasers, just like you. Aurora Lens is our way of sharing the hope of a glowing night sky with everyone who looks up and wonders.
Built with love in the PNW by Nebula AI Labs.
