As all aurora related apps get the data from the same sources, it's really the user experience make the difference. This app has a very clean and clear presentation, with all the necessary info expressed in a nice way ! Love it !

The quality of information and breakdowns of technical garble-de-goo into layman English is outstanding. I've tried several aurora apps, and this is by far my favorite! Keep up the awesome work!

Tried all the aurora apps I could find. This is hands down the best one, way better than even the one with a million downloads. I may be a noob at my know-how of auroras, but I certainly know good app design, and this one is top-notch! Keep up the good work, and I hope this review helps you net more downloads :)

All the information you need freely available. Don't get caught in a tourist trap. This is it, support honest development.

Okay wow this was actually even better than I expected from other comments, the amount of functions and information you get and especially for free is amazing. Great work! :)

Brilliant app. Lots of useful info, and well organised. Explanations of terminology are nice for newer users. But also a lot of technical details for us aurora nerds 🤓
