Northern Lights Alert

Seriously? Totally overpriced

I read about the app in a brochure during our holiday in Finnland. I also bought the code for about 10€. First I was surprised that the code was only valid for 3 days. Second, the app told that only 2 alerts were send during the last 30 days! Unfortunately there are no more informations like satellite pictures or any other forecasted. I am wondering if there are alerts at all.

Wir können die App leider nicht aussagekräftig bewerten, da sie bei uns leider nicht funktioniert hat. Haben den Code für 9,90€ im Weihnachtsmanndorf in Rovaniemi gekauft. Ärgerlich war das es für den Preis nicht funktionierte. Im Nachhinein war der App-Anbieter jedoch sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, daher die Anzahl an Sternen.

We downloaded the app and bought the code for 9.90€ hoping to be notified about the northern lights. But while we didn’t get any notification, we saw from others how they posted pictures and videos from northern light activities and we missed it. I don’t know if you only get notified when they show up in your bathroom or what but this is absolute waste of money!

During our stay in Levi, we had several cloudy days with no lights. On our last night, the clouds were forecasted to break up late in the evening. To increase our chances to see them, we went on a small tour plus got this app. We were very lucky and saw an amazing display! The app was sending alerts as we were starting to see the lights on several occasions, not afterwards. It also sent an alert at 4:15am that night. We bundled up, went outside and saw another display that lasted 30minutes! We were the only ones out seeing it and would have missed it without this app.

I noticed this app did not have a high review and 2 not great reviews so was hesitant to download and pay the 2 day fee.. however I wanted to give myself every possible chance to see the Northern Lights and this is the ONLY app that notified me in real time about the sightings. I saw the lights two nights in a row thanks to this app!!

9.99 for two days is expensive and should be solid, clear and functional for that kind of money. It did not work for me. Fortunately I did a photo safari with an in the ground professional that allowed me a chance to see the Aurora. This app was behind curve in terms of timely alerting per app time stamp. Additionally I never got an actual alert. Had I not gone out and been sleeping or otherwise busy I would have missed the one chance to see the lights on my trip. I do not suggest this app.

No info comes with alert - useless... can’t tell what location and what direction the sighting was
