Scope Nights Astronomy Weather Pros
✓ Useful planning toolThis actually works. It’s massively better than looking at the standard weather forecasts and trying to work out if it’s going to be ok for observing or not. I do astrophotography and Scope Nights offers me the ability to really see when it’s going to be usably clear with all the detail I need that impacts the photos, and not just clear to the eye. Great app, love it, it’s now my primary weather planning tool..Version: 2.5.1
✓ Astronomy weather Wunderapp!My time on scope has increased 3 fold since getting this app. It has been very accurate and is a pleasure to use. The update is gorgeous and it works flawlessly with the new OS. This is an amazing App..Version: 2.4
✓ Scope Nights Astronomy Weather Positive ReviewsScope Nights Astronomy Weather Cons
✗ Broken Weather LookipBeen using the app for months and it was great. Now any location outside the US is broken and won’t load. Tried several in Canada, none work. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Tried a US loacation and it worked no problem..Version: 2.5.1
✗ Great app in need of some bug fixesI love this app, but every time I go into it, it gives me an error that the forecast for my site is unavailable. Lately I am getting the same error 2 or 3 times and each error must be clicked to make it go away. Regardless of the errors it actually does still provide an updated forecast. If this could be fixed then the app would be perfect..Version: 2.5.1
