Really poor.
Currently in Norway on cruise. This app is useless. iPhone takes better photos on its own. Don’t waste 99p on this load of rubbish.
Northern Lights Photo Taker

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...)

Northern Lights Photo Taker Reviews
Awful
I bought this app as it was advertised in the northern light museum in Reykjavík. What a waste of money. I spent ages adjusting the settings and using the preset settings and all I could take were black pictures of the sky. It didn’t pick anything up. My iPhone camera with some adjusted settings took the most amazing photos. Do not waste your money. If you’re going on a tour for the northern lights the guide will tell you have to adjust your camera, if not Google it. The app was pointless.
Does not work
The built in camera app was far better. This did not take any decent pictures despite following the guidelines and trying all the settings.
Don’t bother
This app was a waste of money. My phone camera took better pictures than with this app
Don’t open on a iPhone 14 pro
Don’t open
If you have a newer iPhone with long exposure on it use that instead
App is good if you have an older iPhone If you have a newer one with the 3second long exposure nighttime setting use that instead. Had great results with the iPhone standard nighttime mode in Reykjavik and wished I’d never paid for this app.
Poor
My auto iPhone settings take better Aurora photos than this app.
Terrible!!
Don’t waste your money, my camera on my phone on long exposure, worked 1000 times better.
Did not work
I have iPhone 13 mini and the app did not work but my phone camera was great so no need for the app. Just a waste of money!
Does not work
I downloaded this app to use on the NorthernLights in Iceland. Now have 9 pictures of nothing but the dark!! Got slightly less dark pictures from my basic camera phone. High level of disappointment achieved from exposure to this app only!!
