iPhone
Night Cam is a night-sky camera with a free aurora forecast built in. Open it, see tonight's odds, pick a preset and shoot.
TONIGHT'S FORECAST (ALWAYS FREE)
- Aurora chance for where you are, from NOAA's live aurora model and Kp forecast
- Cloud cover for the next 12 hours
- Moon phase and brightness
- One suggestion: the preset worth opening tonight
- Optional aurora alerts, at most one a night
PHOTO PRESETS
- Stars: 16 seconds of light stacked into one clean photo. Far less grain than a single shot.
- Moon: exposed for moonlight on the telephoto lens, so you get craters instead of a white blob.
- Aurora: a short stack that keeps moving curtains crisp.
- Trails: star trails that grow as long as you leave it running.
- City: skyline and lights from the balcony or terrace.
VIDEO PRESETS
- Night: bright video at 24 fps.
- Aurora Live: quarter-second frames that show the aurora moving in real time.
- Time-lapse: one frame a second, played back at 30 fps.
BUILT FOR STANDING OUTSIDE IN THE DARK
- Each preset tells you how to hold the phone: tripod, wall or hand-held.
- A 3-second countdown and a steadiness check before long shots.
- Red night-vision mode keeps your eyes adjusted to the dark.
- Exposure is metered from your actual sky, so a lit city terrace and a dark field both come out right.
