Description
"Every amateur astronomer yearns for clear, dark skies, and this exhaustive app helps you find them."
- Sky At Night Magazine 2017
"Several astronomy-oriented weather apps are available, but Scope Nights has become my favorite… it does a fine job of summarizing the data in a clear and understandable fashion."
- Sky & Telescope Magazine 2015
"Conventional weather forecasts meet the needs of Earthly dwellers; news of cloud cover when sensible folk are asleep is hardly required. Now via this wonderful App… local forecasts for nocturnal weather… are now available."
- Astronomy Now Magazine 2012
If you’re a stargazer, astronomer or astrophotographer, analysing conventional weather forecasts for favourable night time conditions can be very time consuming, you just want to know when to plan your stargazing trip or set up your telescope. Scope Nights analyses night time weather forecast data for you and shows exactly when and where to go for the darkest and clearest skies, as well as offering customisable stargazing ratings to suit your telescope and observing habits, stargazing notifications, and a detailed light pollution map showing nearby dark sky sites and observatories. Finding clear dark skies and discovering the night sky has never been easier!

Finger weg!
Abgesehen davon, dass die App extrem schlecht zu benutzen ist, werden keine Wetterdaten geladen. Das scheint dem Entwickler bewusst zu sein ohne dass man vor dem Kauf drauf hingewiesen wird.
Keine Wetterdaten verfügbar.
Die App kann auf keine Wetterdaten zugreifen, daher funktioniert der beworbene Forecast zur Himmelsbeobachtung nicht. Überhaupt nicht! Der Anbieter weist auf das Problem sogar, bzw. nur auf seiner Homepage hin, verlangt hier aber volles Geld. Thema an Apple gemeldet. Karte der Lichtverschmutzung funktioniert…wer‘s braucht. App ist für mich absolut nutzlos.
Useless
Stopped working, only error message Global forecast unavailable
!Caution!
The app does currently not work. The global weather forecast is unavailable. This makes the app entirely useless. App author links to his support page that shows an info view. That info has no date whatsoever. I own the app for a month now, but it could be broken for WAY longer.
Since months doesn’t work.
It is a pretty but it is like it is.
It was the best until…
Really my preferred scope or astrophotographers app while it lasted. I‘d have happily paid 10€ to keep it, alas it’s been broken for a while now and the alternatives are seriously lacking. How about it, Martin? We‘, your fans, would love to read from you!!
Unbrauchbar
Leider unbrauchbar, da es für meine Locationskeine Daten liefert.
No forecast data available at all !
I purchased this app but it doesn’t work. It is using public weather forecast channels and it seems it stopped delivering the needed data. Due this this app hasn’t any value for me.
It just stopped working :-(
I really like this app, but it just stopped working saying "Global forecast unavailable" for at least a week now 😩
