2. 5/5Always says 0, *fixed*

   New update works and shows the data I was looking for in the app. Showed a good percent of chance last night and sure enough we had a great show! Thanks for the update. We have missed plenty of showings using this app. The app has never been over 0 chance since using it for several years yet you go outside and the sky is filled with the Northern lights. Only thing good about the app is an easy way to see some atmospheric metrics and such. Don’t count on it for predictions!

3. 4/5Great could use a bit more

   This app is pretty good for tracking flares and the basic telemetry for space weather but I wish they would at least put some of the Cme spiral models on here and extend the recent solar flare list to at least a week so that we can watch the CME’s from those flares come in, since it can take several days for them to reach us I feel it would help with preparing aurora chasers if we could track the CMEs from the sun to us, instead of watching the x flares drop off before the telemetry picks it up, if you didn’t catch the flare before they drop off, you wouldn’t know to expect anything. But other wise this is solid for catching the x flare when it happens, but you still have to go to noaa or a space weather site if you want to catch a video of the event before it gets back logged and you have to search for that data.

4. 5/5Great App

   I have been using this app for years In hopes of seeing the Northern Light. And it paid off last night, May 10, 2024. The app is a work of art. Beautifully designed, and loaded with information. Nevertheless it is accessible to all irrespective the one’s science background. If nothing else it will at least let you know when to look.

5. 2/5good idea, not very accurate, in my experience, others we have better luck

   I live in Minnesota and roughly the middle of the state. We see the lights from time to time during strong, solar events. They can push down to the midpoint of Minnesota. I have seen them three times since getting this app, but not because the app helped. when I seen the lights, I’ve opened the app and it says my chances of seeing the lights or 0%, this app is last updated four years ago, maybe a new update and tweaking are in order? Good idea, poor function.
