Ratings and reviews

I cannot get past screen prompting me to open an account. l am not interested in that feature. Really was hoping for a paid version in order to avoid the account thing, of course developers need to be paid somehow. update: I went ahead and did the account anyway, but soon uninstalled the app as it was sending constant notifications of auroras being viewed alaska, even though I set my location for Southeast michigan.

One of the best Autora apps out there for UX. It would be nice to have diverse categories or only be notified for lights near you. It's cool to see other people's pictures, but if you're using this app for notifications to go check outside, the onslaught of notifications aren't helpful. Only having access to pro features through a subscription service instead of single payment doesn't make much sense when this app is very useful to tourists.

I wish I could say that this app is wonderful as it seems to be a really good idea with excellent features to make aurora watching seriously easy. Sadly, unless you are prepared to pay or live in or near a Scandinavian country it is probably going to be pretty useless. In the UK the opportunity to watch aurora is very limited, making the paid option none viable, but there will be a bombardment of alerts for it being visible far away. I deleted after being kept awake by constant notifications.
