AURA - Smart Weather for Drone

This app shows me in a NFZ, however, according to the FAA I am in Class G airspace.

Used the Aura app many times and found it very useful and accuracy was surprisingly excellent. So much so that I subscribed. Meanwhile with the recent update it tells me that I am in a No Fly Zone. With no way to make any setting changes to adjust the "zone" radius. I am NOT in a No Fly Zone. There are a couple of private a runways (not airports) but no reason to call it a NFZ. Nearest County Airport is over 10 miles North of me. I will not be renewing my subscription until the Devs incorporate some settings to change the type of airfields and radius area.

1) It disagrees with other drone specific weather apps and even with what I’m seeing outside as far as local conditions. 2) If there’s a Cloud Base feature or setting to enable the readout I can’t find it. Either incorporate Cloud Base or give me a Dew Point readout so I can calculate it myself without opening another weather app. Again, sexy looking app, but I can’t trust it because it’s inconsistent with current conditions I can physically feel and see while other apps are more representative of the actual conditions. I’ll keep it on my device, though, in hopes of a reliable app in future updates. Hopefully the owners will invest their earnings into R&D for needed improvements. ETA: App could use customizations like longpressing a tile to add/change or remove a tiles information. For example, I don’t need sunrise/sunset so getting rid of it or replacing it with something more preferable (dew point, cloud base) or just decluttering and reorganizing the tiles to taste would be phenomenal! Also, needs option to display pressure reading in inHg

Very nice looking app. It would be nice if I’t had a direct tie in to LAANC but it is a forecast app. Love the interface look and feel. It seemed a bit clunky having to go to a different (map) mode to move locations but I get the flow. Unfortunately it doesn’t warn my of the flight restrictions Vandenburg Space Force Base has in place near me. I need to go to an entirely different app to see that. I popped for a year, I’ll see how it goes. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be family shareable. Would be 5 stars otherwise.

I like the app but not for an annual subscription. They do update it to fix the issues (bugs).

Looks good

I just discovered the app shows feels-like temp or wind chill index (-3F) rather than actual (10F). Why? Also, I subscribe, yet the app frequently asks me if I want to subscribe and doesn’t give me access to the subscription features without an app-force-restart. I like the idea, but sadly, the app appears to be riddled with bugs and no way to contact support, only showing a guided walkthrough of the app when clicking on Help. With updates to the app appearing very few and far-between, and no support link, I’m thinking this app could be/is abandonware.

Just downloaded and subscribed....where is the satellite information??? Update: App is continually saying that a storm is nearby when there is not a storm in my entire state? The data provided in this app is suspect to say the least. I’ve attempted to contact the developer without any response. If you’re going to sell a product ensure that it’s working and provide timely customer service. I have cancelled my subscription and I request a refund.

It constantly says that it is not a good time to fly. My other apps are more reliable and prove this app wrong every time. I paid for the subscription to this app thinking that maybe it would be more reliable but it’s not any better. If they don’t get it right soon then I will definitely unsubscribe to it. Constantly says you are in a no fly zone no matter where you are. I travel all the states and this app always says no fly zone. Fix it or take this app off the market.

This is a well thought out unique app. The data from this app is right on the Target so to speak. If you crash your Drone don’t blame the app just Kidding! I hope you Download the App I don’t feel you will be disappointed! ( Really) Thanks I have to go find my Drone Forgot my Glasses with my luck it’s in a Tree that I cannot claim!
