Comments on Aurora Alerts - Northern Light for Android

★★★★☆ Berni M · Jan 3, 2025
Always seemed fairly accurate till the recent storming over new year, now the overhead and horizon have been stuck on the same 2% and 16% for 3 days

★★★★★ Charmaine Porter · Jul 12, 2026
I finally saw the Aurora in Western Australia due to this app. I find the forecast using the little wheels/forecast for Bz, density and Bt very helpful in determining if I should go out to look for the Aurora Australia.
★★★★★ David M · Sep 1, 2025
This app is awesome at finding a location for the Auroras based on the KP and the BZ components.
★★★★☆ Terri Norris · Oct 8, 2024
I like the format of the app a lot. However, I paid for all the alerts and haven't received an alert yet despite the Kp being over the set value. I do have alerts enabled. Will give it another day and if still no alerts will request a refund.
★☆☆☆☆ Mary Canzano · Jun 9, 2026
Major bug. The app closes when hitting long forecast. They said it was fixed on 6/7 but still not working.
★★☆☆☆ Not the Mon · Sep 22, 2025
Ready to ditch this app. I subscribed to alerts. At the top of the screen, it says they are turned off because I'm not subscribed, but when I go into the alerts, it says I am already subscribed. What gives.
★☆☆☆☆ Truc Do · Oct 14, 2024
Got no notifications after I paid for the full alert feature. Feel like I got ripped off. I set all the numbers to meet all the alert requirements, but still no alert. Last week when all the numbers went up max, my other aurora alert app popped up notifications like crazy, but this app just went silent.

Description by Cargo Teleport Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Aurora Alerts is an app designed to monitor real-time auroral activity and push alert to let you know if there may be aurora borealis (northern lights) visible tonight. Whenever you are home or away, Aurora Alerts will notify you if the possibility of seeing the northern lights exists.

Main features:
- short-term aurora forecast for next hour with weather conditions and moon Illumination
- long-term aurora forecast for the next 3 days with weather conditions
- long-term northern lights forecast for the next 27 days
- show probability to see Northern Lights based on your or custom location
- current auroral activity (based on observed and predicted Kp Indices from U.S. Air Force Weather Agency)
- weather forecast to check visibility conditions before planning to see northern lights
- solar wind data directly from the NASA satellite (wind speed, Bz, Bt and density)
- unlike many other apps, it uses the local time instead of UTC

Alerts:
- when northern lights may be visible at current or custom location at the horizon or overhead
- Kp index reaches chosen value
- solar wind data reach chosen values
- you can filter out alerts based on time of the day

Boost your chances of viewing the northern lights!
