The aurora borealis (or northern lights) is a spectacular natural phenomenon which can occasionally be seen in the night sky over Britain. Once seen, it is never forgotten. AuroraWatch UK is a free service offering alerts when the aurora might be visible from the UK. It is run by scientists in the Space and Planetary Physics group at Lancaster University’s Department of Physics. The AuroraWatch UK app for iOS is written, run and maintained by Neil Morton at Progress Concepts Limited, in association with AuroraWatch UK, giving you the data at your fingertips on your iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch, and delivering free real-time alerts whenever aurora is likely to be visible from the UK. Alerts are configurable within the app to different levels, so you will know when to look out for aurora wherever you are. * Receive realtime alerts direct to your device when sighting is likely. * Monitor the UK's geomagnetic activity in real-time. * See how likely it is that you may see the aurora. * View last 24 hours chart. * View map with current aurora & cloud cover. * View Shetland Cliff Cam to see any aurora. * Widget allows quick access to current activity. * Watch app allows quick access to current activity. * Watch complications. * Use Siri shortcuts to get latest status (including HomePod).}

Tonight I had a notification for a red alert but the following hour it went up even higher but I had no notification and missed it.

Alert notification proved to be hugely successful. Thanks to receiving the alert at 01:15, I managed to take the most amazing photos of the Aurora Borealis. Thank you x

fantastic app which shows you when you can see the northern lights in your area. i find it quite good and accurate. there are three or four levels of alerts which you can set your alarm too to let you know. there’s No activity, minor activity, and yellow alert then red alerts which means the aurora can be spotted in the night sky from anywhere in your part of the world. well worth having the app on your phone or tablet. highly recommended.

It’s a super useful app apart from the alerts are not configurable in enough of a fine grain. It would be super useful if I could specify what value it alerted over other than just “red”, for it to reach this far south there are a lot of red herrings before it’s worth checking the skies.

I wasn’t notified about the massive aurora last night, even though it is definitely set up right in Notification Center.
