Horrible experience with ads! I downloaded this app yesterday, but I can't evaluate the app because of the intrusive ads. Some ads are loud videos that take over the whole app, and it's difficult to dismiss them. Most of them are garbage advertisements like Temu or TikTok. A new user should have a trial period of a couple of weeks to experience the ad-free app. And I don't want to give you my credit card number to try it and then my credit card is automatically charged. Nope.

Ads can be removed for a very reasonable price. We don’t do trial periods as that can be abused with each geomagnetic storm. Ads are needed to keep the app free.

This app is a pretty pisser app for a free app that allows you to investigate space weather i.e. the aurora borealis and Geomagnetic activity. Gives plenty of options and is interactive regarding when & where you want to get notifications. Because of this app i really truly got multiple pics of a beautiful & MASSIVE aurora borealis in several cities & towns in Massachusetts. Yes in Mass!! Just outside Boston, in Watertown, Billerica, & Needham Ma. crazy! That does not happen often. Get this app!
