Ratings and reviews

Beautifully presented data and UI. easily the best aurora app available. lots of data points, measurements and graphs, all with guides on how to read and interpret the data. love this app. I'm switching to iPhone soon so will be supporting the app with purchases when I get my new phone as I've already checked if it's on IOS.

Phenomenal app! Very clean and easy to use. The guides are very helpful and contain very useful information. The monetization couldn't be any better in Regards to the user experience and is exceptionally fair. I prefer the standard colors, but I'll probably buy a color scheme just to support the creator. No popup adds yet, which I very much appreciate! I'll be testing it in the field soon. There is no doubt in my mind that this app will prove to be a useful source of information.

Spectacular. The user interface is excellent, the data is exactly what you want it to be, The additional information that explains everything is above bar and expectations. genuinely the best Aurora app I've explored.
