AuroraWatch UK Aurora Alerts Pros
✓ Wow!So this is the best thing to get updates with . I have been following Aurora for a while because they can affect electronic equipment, when I skippered boats , it could disrupt radio ,Radar , and Satellite communication. If we had had this we would get some warning to start worrying about what you believe ( electronically). So do I rate this 💯percent. Yes I do . Also it’s fun to see even as far south as Guernesey, you can see it … now that was amazing.. thank you for making such a great app..Version: 2.7.0
✓ Great but could do so much moreI'd love to be able to see the data over more than just the last 24 hours, you should be able to pick the scale 24 hrs, a week a month etc. It's easy enough to implement and would give some feeling for temporal changes over weeks, months and years. And match the alerts with daylight/location so we don't get alerts when it's light outside..Version: 2.1.1
✓ AuroraWatch UK Aurora Alerts Positive ReviewsAuroraWatch UK Aurora Alerts Cons
✗ Not really helpful in getting you to see the auroraWhilst this app does have its virtues, it’s biggest problem is that it informs you of aurora activity when it is too late. Telling me what is currently occurring isn’t good enough to go to a location to see it because by the time you you get there, the forecast has changed and aurora completed. There’s no forecast at play, which makes it a bit useless. It’s fun if you wish to see a livecam from the Shetland’s, but that’s it. The colour coding is also inaccurate. I’ve seen many red alerts on there, and it notifies you that the red alert means that the aurora is visible everywhere in the U.K., and this simply never true. It is never visible all over the U.K.– all one can really say is that it is visible in parts of Scotland & northern England. I’ve been attempting to chase the aurora for the last 6-7 years, but this app hasn’t really helped me in that regard. I guess this is just an app for someone purely interested in geomagnetic activity..Version: 2.7.0
✗ Good appIt’s a good app, not as accurate as SpaceWeather but good all the same, but I don’t how they can see Aurora is unlikely to be shown in Scotland or any parts of the UK , that’s plainly not true I live on the Isle of Skye and the Aurora has been visible already over Skye and the highlands dozens of times, you’ll nearly always get an Aurora here but not much further south. I think in that sense they need to change the app, and have Shetland and Orkney in one band highlands of Scotland in a separate band lowlands of Scotland in another band northern England separate and maybe include NI and southern England separate too because there is a massive difference between northern Scotland and the borders of Scotland for an Aurora..Version: 2.4.14
