Aurora Forecast Now1.7.1 - App Store

The only aurora app that will let you know whether you can see the aurora from wherever you are - or from any location you choose - at sea or on land - anywhere in the world.

I wrote this app because I was disappointed that current aurora apps were not customised to match where I was right now. This is not just a summary of worldwide auroras, this is an aurora report customised for each location, including yours.

. This app will tell you if the aurora is visible from your location - or any other you select - right now.
. This app adjusts if your location skies may be too light - adjusts automatically for extreme locations in the North or South polar regions where the sun may not rise or set. This app warns you if the light may result in less than optimal viewing.
. Adjusts viewing data for yours or any location you select based on the current strength of geomagnetic activity.
. Premium users get a three day advance forecast as to whether the aurora is likely to be viewable at the selected location.
. Premium users get three hourly future forecasts of geomagnetic activity.
. Premium users get to see a graph of peaks and troughs of the 11 year geomagnetic cycle and where we are currently.
. See Historic geomagnetic data for the last week and the peaks and troughs graphed for each day.
. This app gives you a rarity rating so you know if the geomagnetic activity is higher than normal.

I wrote this app for myself, and I am pleased to make it available to you as well. I’ve designed this app to be both educational and practical. I’ve learned a lot writing it and I hope you enjoy it too.
