Description
This app only does one thing and that's to help you take better photos of the aurora borealis, aka the northern lights.
Here's the scenario - so you see the northern lights (!! - awesome for you, by the way), but you don't have a fancy digital camera with you. Thankfully, you have your trusty iPhone or iPad!
OK! Now what??
Do you know the tips and tricks to take photos of the northern lights ? Great, if you do! Enable manual mode; set the focus to infinity; change the temperature to a certain number; change the ISO between certain values; change the shutter speed to something else....wait what...?
Don't worry, this app does all of that for you so all you have to do is find those lights. ISO, shutter speed, long exposure mode, temperature, check check check. There are 3 presets that you can choose from based on the brightness of the aurora lights that you're seeing. Those don't work? Try out custom mode until you get that 'good-enough-for-me-to-show-to-my-friends' snap and take as many photos as you'd like!
Worth a shot ! (hah..a...was funny when this was typed...)

Use your iPhone app instead
You are much better off using your iPhones actual camera. I wasted my experience watching the northern lights using this app, it’s hard to determine what setting to use and any bit of shakiness will ruin the whole photo. Definitely would not recommend
Awful
I tried using this in Iceland when staring at the Northern Lights on October 19, 2021, it was crap and buggy. I just used the iPhone camera app which auto adjusted for the best settings and I got great pics of the Northern Lights. Waste of money.
Doesn’t Work on iPhone 11 Pro
It immediately starts firing off photos as soon as it launches then crashes on an iPhone 11 Pro. But with an iPhone 11 Pro the included Night Mode with the Apple camera app likely works better so this app isn’t needed. I used to recommend this app to participants in my Aurora tours but not now. Buy at your own risk.
Doesn't work
I had high hopes but it doesnt work for the Northern Lights. It is just an all black picture.
Doesn’t work!
I downloaded this app to take a picture of the northern lights. Safe to say didn’t work at all, I saw the most vibrant northern lights and all I got was pitch black pictures on my phone. Don’t waste your money!
Doesn’t work
Doesn’t work. Even tried the recommended settings but still doesn’t work. Just a waste of my money!
Poor app! Do not buy!
Very poor app, try other options before purchasing. Does not deliver!
Amazing
I do not have professional photography skills and was hoping to be able to take a picture of these while I was in Iceland. I downloaded the app and it was so easy to use ! The photo actually came out brighter than what we were able to see from our own eyes. Definitely worth!
Loved it!
Thank you for this app! I could share photos of aurora instantly from my iPhone instead of waiting to go home to download from my camera. Of course we can't expect to have perfect picture that you'd have in a real camera...but it was so good to take the photos in my phone & be able to share it with my friends!
