Great information
best app sofar for knowing when to go out and view the Aurora
I think that Auroracast is a very good app. It has a chapter in it where you can take vacations anywhere in the world to see Aurora's. It also has other apps that you can purchase if you want to upgrade. Judy Merryfield.
Great working app and also brilliant support from the developer. Very quick responses and fixes to any issues. Worth paying the reasonable price for the work gone in
Fantastic app! One of the best user interfaces I've encountered. Easy to use, well layed out and very comprehensive. Well done!
Really useful and informative especially if your heading somewhere to see the aurora.
It's a very good app but is let down by continual server error especially with the maps.
The widgets aren't fixed and to top it all off now the app will not even open. What is my money being used for?
Unable to start the app on my Xperia XZ1. Stuck with annoying greyed out screen explaining the Kp. Unable to close this and start the app.
Unable to use the app because the tutorial explaining the meaning of KP won't close and there's no button to dismiss it. What do I do?
Great app with everything I was looking for in one place. Fantastic support; the issues I had were addressed and fixed very quickly. I would give 5 starts but I haven't yet used this in a practical situation. I think it will be great
