So here's my honest take on Aurora Now - Northern Lights. I've tested a bunch of weather/astronomy apps and this one's pretty solid. The real-time forecasting is super useful, and I like how you can set custom alerts. The UI could use some work, but it's easy enough to navigate. Compared to some other aurora tracking apps, this one's got a better balance of features without being overwhelming. Not gonna lie though, it does get a little repetitive after a while. But if you're serious about chasing the Northern Lights, this is a pretty good app to have in your arsenal.

Description

Been using Aurora Now – Northern Lights for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that helps you track the Northern Lights. Pretty solid if you’re into that kinda thing.

Here’s what you can do – there’s a real-time aurora forecast that gives you location-based predictions. And it’s got customizable alerts too, so you can get notified when there’s cool activity near you. And you can set your own custom location to track. Pretty handy.

Look, if you’re into chasing the Northern Lights, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the UI can be a little clunky at times – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you wanna stay on top of when the lights are gonna show up.
