Genuinely an amazing app

This app is incredible. Is accurate and has so much information. I am unsure how I would properly function without this. From Aurora forecasts, seeing, clouds, transparency, astronomical calendars, and so much more the app is a MUST for any astronomer or those aspiring.

Thank you!!!

Just not accurate

Love the interface but the forecast for me is not accurate. Shows no clouds (dark blue) when there is 109% cloud cover. East of England.

Used To Be Great

The app used to be great.. then it just stopped working. Even after updating it fails to give a forecast. Just a notice saying “network error”. Too bad.. I used the app frequently for about two years. Now it’s useless

Precision tool that helps determine when to shoot

I LOVE this app. It’s been a godsend for astrophotography and helping identify good seeing for my location. That is very beneficial when determining if I want to shoot in Ha, for better detail, or if Oiii is the play tonight since the seeing is a bit worse. The accuracy astonishes me… why can’t all weather reports get this precise! Really one of the best values I’ve found.
