  • It’s nice but too many alerts

    And unclear how I’d switch to daily alerts rather than anytime the sun makes the tiniest move. You can switch the level it will alert at (am giving that a try) but not the frequency.

  • Too many ads

    I’m still trying to figure out how to read this app but while I do that, I keep getting all kinds of ads. Super annoying.

  • Need to use everyday language

    This may be a great app but the information is too technical, written by and for scientists. I don’t understand the information, even with a masters degree but not in science.

  • Some what helpful

    I like to have the opportunity to get the notifications of the possibility of seeing Aurora. But 99% of the time it’s not happening in my area so it’s kind of like a dud.

  • Malware ads - beware!

    Came up with a malware "your phone is full" fake warning malware ad. Immediately uninstalled.

  • So many ads it’s useless

    The info is there, but you’re bombarded by a ton of noisy ads at every turn. Either let me pay to opt out, or reign them in. Uninstalling this and relying on my other apps until you fix the problem. It’s just not worth the hassle.

  • Useless

    Ads pop up at very inopportune times and the data load is very buggy. It’s basically useless.

  • needs a way to opt out of ads

    Great app but no way to pay to get rid of the ads. In app purchase or pro version would be nice and would make the review a 5 star.

  • Northern Lights

    As an avid consumer of anything and everything science, especially in the field of astronomy, I truly appreciate this app. I like how pertinent details (of the Sun) which explain how the light display is produced are explained in the discussion section. The dialogue is heavy in detail, but it’s enlightening to read. The graphics depicting where the lights are predicted to display is always helpful. I’m always ready to observe the lights whenever traveling to northern Wisconsin and the app is always ready for action.

  • App run amok

    This app has gone into hyper mode - I shut off all notifications, but it still pings me with alerts (it’s 1:35am, at this moment). Help! When I do go up to the WI Northwoods, I’d love to use this, but meanwhile I need my sleep! I have no choice but to delete this.
