I've tried so many aurora apps and they've all been terrible; this one is incredible. Thank you very much for an incredible app. I like the theme but will support and buy one in the iap store for a thank you.

This app is great, better than many other I tried. This app provides a simple "percentage" value, but also interesting measurement values, information about the forecast and explanation how to interpret them, even it is not easy to understand all of this information, it gives an interesting insight. Due to the notification feature, I was able to see an aurora - thanks very much to the developer :) I purchased a color theme to support the app.

Phenomenal app! Very clean and easy to use. The guides are very helpful and contain very useful information. The monetization couldn't be any better in Regards to the user experience and is exceptionally fair. I prefer the standard colors, but I'll probably buy a color scheme just to support the creator. No popup adds yet, which I very much appreciate! I'll be testing it in the field soon. There is no doubt in my mind that this app will prove to be a useful source of information.

This app is absolutely gorgeous. Its functions exceed that of most other apps I tested (and I had 4 Aurora apps installed), and the optical appearance is just perfekt. Even standard wise using color deficient vision colormaps. It is noticeable that the developer is extremely enthusiastic about the topic and skilled. I love the different displays about observations (NEW), Magnetometer measures, and forecasts as well as solar wind diagrams. deserves all stars out in the universe. 👌 💯 🏅

Great app, content and design wise! Any chance we could get a home screen widget with the most relevant current and/or forecast parameters? REPLY: Great, that is awesome!

Very nice interface and good app. You can decide to choose your location manually or by GPS. Lots of details, if you want, or you stick to the overview page.
