  • Definitely worth it!

    I tried to follow online guides to change my iPhone 6s settings but was pretty complicated. I found and bought this App and was so lucky to capture the lights on our last night in Iceland. Really east to use - I had it in weak setting.
  • Poor app! Do not buy!

    Very poor app, try other options before purchasing. Does not deliver!
  • IT ACTUALLY WORKS!!

    if you’re a complete photo noob THIS APP IS FOR YOU! I know absolutely nothing about camera settings and still managed to get STUNNING photos of the northern lights in Iceland. It has pre-set settings, just point and snap! Great app for people who really don’t understand the appropriate settings that cameras need to be on to capture something as special as the northern lights.

  • Worth it

    Best .99 I’ve spent. Photos came out a bit grainy but that was somewhat expected. My iPhone camera couldn’t pick up anything at all and this app let me photograph the lights in Iceland. It sets up an extended exposure so you need to lean against something to hold still(ish) or consider getting a tripod setup. It only worked on the weak setting for me, even when they seemed bright. Only thing that would make this better is if it allowed a video feature since my phone camera/video couldn’t pick them up enough to show the lights dancing all over the sky.

  • A Must Have!

    I downloaded this app on the tour bus on the way to see the Northern Lights, and I’m so pleased I did! I don’t usually write reviews, but this app enabled me to take spectacular pictures of the lights, so I feel it’s only right to let everyone know how brilliant it is. Very simple and easy to use.
  • Best 99 cents ever spent

    Got this for a trip to Iceland in December 2017. Not being a professional photographer, I wanted an easy app to get a decent photo. Bought this app and another and only ended up using this one. People kept coming up to us and asking how we were getting the northern lights to show up using our camera on our phone. The photos aren’t perfect, they’re a little grainy but they’re so much better than nothing and so much better than I was expecting. I don’t think you’ll find a better app for this. I would HIGHLY recommend buying this app. Best app I’ve ever gotten! Thank you!

  • Amazing App

    I have never reviewed an App before. This one deserves it. If you are seeing the Aurora you MUST get this app. We went from not being able to get a photo to several amazing shots. Can’t thank you enough for making this.
  • Wow!

    Arrived in Norway with little idea as to how to take a photo of the Northern Lights. Downloaded the app and hey presto, point and shoot, and some fabulous photos. There is even the ability to play with the settings so that you can discuss aperture and shutter speed settings with fellow photographers! Without the app it was not possible to get a decent photo of the lights. A fabulous app!

  • Great App! Great Photos!

    This app definitely works if you see good Aurora! We saw them two nights in a row in Reykjavík and the first night they were very weak and I didn’t get any good pictures but the second night they were better and I got GREAT pictures! So it somewhat depends on the strength of the natural phenomenon. I used the weak setting. Pics are slightly blurry without a tripod but amazing when you consider its through an iPhone. Most people with us didn’t get pics and I had two strangers ask me to email them my pics because they were so good!!

  • Definitely Worth A Buck

    You're not going to be hanging Aurora photos taken with this app in a gallery, but you'll be able to get something good enough to induce FB/IG jealousy. And you'll have the pleasure of knowing that what you saw was so much better than what the app can capture. Use that to talk your friends into visiting you in Alaska. 💯😜
