Track the Northern and Southern Lights in real time - wherever you are.
AuroraWatch is a free, ad-free app that brings together NOAA's OVATION aurora model, real-time KP index readings, live solar wind data from NOAA SWPC, and your local cloud cover into one clear view. No clutter, no ads, no guesswork - just the data you need to know when the sky might put on a show.
WHY AURORAWATCH
Most aurora apps only cover the Northern Hemisphere. AuroraWatch tracks both the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis, so whether you're chasing lights in Norway, Alaska, Tasmania, or New Zealand, you get the same real-time data.
FREE FOR EVERYONE
• Interactive aurora activity map using NOAA's OVATION model
• Real-time KP index
• Live solar wind data from NOAA SWPC (density, speed, Bz)
• Local cloud cover and moon illumination, so you know if you'll actually see anything
• Substorm Monitor (Beta) - live USGS magnetometer readings for aurora burst timing
• Solar flare probabilities
• Live SDO solar imagery
• Ask Siri about tonight's aurora chances
• Customizable push notifications
GO PRO
Upgrade for deeper data and always-on visibility:
• AI summaries on the KP and Solar Wind screens - written privately on your iPhone with Apple Intelligence where available
• Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island - KP, solar wind, Bz, and cloud cover at a glance
• Home Screen widgets for KP, cloud cover, solar wind, and a short forecast
• Apple Watch dashboard with KP, weather, upcoming changes, and solar wind
• Aurora Now alerts when aurora may be visible in your area
• Minute-resolution KP charts, a 45-day Ap outlook, GOES X-ray history, and a full solar event log
• 48-hour solar wind history with interactive charts and date scrubbing
• Three premium themes - Northern Lights, Eclipse, and Storm
Pro is available as a weekly, monthly, or annual auto-renewing subscription. Cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
BUILT ON REAL DATA
AuroraWatch pulls directly from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, and USGS magnetometers - the same sources space weather scientists use - and refreshes automatically so you're always looking at current conditions, not stale forecasts.
Download AuroraWatch and never miss a night the sky lights up.
