## AuroraWatch UK Aurora Alerts Description
AuroraWatch UK provides real-time alerts when the northern lights may be visible from the UK, based on ground magnetometer measurements from a scientific monitoring network across the country.

The aurora borealis (northern lights) is a spectacular natural phenomenon that can occasionally be seen in the night sky over the United Kingdom. Once seen, it is never forgotten.

AuroraWatch UK is a free service that alerts you when geomagnetic activity becomes strong enough that the aurora may be visible from the UK.

The service is run by scientists in the Space and Planetary Physics group at Lancaster University’s Department of Physics. It is based on measurements from a network of magnetometers across the UK that monitor disturbances in the Earth’s magnetic field caused by auroral activity.

The AuroraWatch UK app for iOS is written, run and maintained by Neil Morton at Progress Concepts Limited, in association with AuroraWatch UK. The app gives you the latest data directly on your iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch and delivers real-time alerts when aurora may be visible from the UK.

Magnetometer data from the UK network is processed approximately every three minutes. Alerts are issued automatically when geomagnetic activity reaches levels where aurora sightings become possible.

AuroraWatch UK focuses on real-time geomagnetic measurements rather than space weather forecasts. Forecast tools can sometimes indicate possible activity in advance, while AuroraWatch alerts when magnetic disturbances are actually occurring.

Aurora activity does not guarantee a visible display at every location. Visibility depends on factors such as cloud cover, light pollution, local horizon conditions and the strength of the geomagnetic disturbance.

Alerts are configurable within the app to different levels, so you will know when to look out for aurora wherever you are.

Features

• Receive real-time alerts direct to your device when aurora may be visible
• Monitor UK geomagnetic activity in real time
• See the current aurora activity level
• View the last 24-hour geomagnetic activity chart
• View map with current aurora probability and cloud cover
• View the Shetland Cliff Cam for possible aurora sightings
• Home Screen widgets for quick access to current activity
• Apple Watch app with complications
• Siri Shortcuts support for retrieving the latest status (including HomePod)

## AuroraWatch UK Aurora Alerts Reviews in Vereinigtes Königreich

### ***** "Brilliant app"
Have seen the northern lights twice in the uk thanks to this app!
-- bdbsjwkwlslmwldmnxmx, 2025-01-02

### ***** "Superb app"
It’s the go to app for advising on current activity.
-- JCH UK, 2025-01-01

### ***** "Great App"
Used several times since moving to Scotland and it is always accurate 👍🏼
-- ImOldwulf, 2025-01-01

### ***** "Top app"
Amazing
-- andypandysuger, 2025-01-01

### ***** "Dave The Chauffer"
Great app that is full of details. If you want to watch out for northern lights, get this app. 100%.
-- Dave the Chauffeur, 2025-01-01

### ***** "Updated review, Still A Great App."
Just what I needed when I first got the app. It’s still a great app but a couple of years later I find that notifications have become sporadic and I feel that either there’s something I’m not doing right in the setup or that there’s something that could benefit from being tweaked by the developer? I really appreciate all the time and effort the developer put into it and I love the app and would continue to love it if it never evolved. I guess I’m trying to leave a very positive review whilst at the same time offering constructive feedback.
-- uracugga, 2025-01-01

### ****- "Great app"
Does what it says it does.
-- Carrera24, 2025-01-01

### ***** "All the information you need"
Straightforward, scientific app that alerts you to aurora activity. Seems very reliable and accurate.
-- Molly61, 2024-12-30

### ***** "Useless"
Seems to run 24 hours behind , few times it’s ever alerted me to anything the sky has been full of cloud. Not sure why anyone would want an aurora update that tells you when it was, not when it is. Surely giving us some kind of notice would be useful
-- Hernethehuntress, 2024-12-25

### ***** "Aurora watch"
Great app, does what I want, easy to use and understand
-- The pie slinger, 2024-12-22
