Smoke forecasting is so broken it is crippling functionality of the broader app

Can you PLEASE add a way to completely disable smoke as part of the forecast? I have disabled every toggle switch available for this and I am still getting “Transparency: Cloudy (smoke)” despite there being absolutely no smoke reported anywhere near my area and nothing visible. It’s been this way for months. Every day the app says smoke is creating poor conditions and every day it’s not at all accurate.

The Best

Astrospheric is the best Astro app there is period!! End of debate! I still believe this years later!

All In One

Such a handy app for forecasting cloud coverage! It has so many other features like temp, wind, moon schedule, etc. Will use for the foreseeable future!

Awesome app

Crucial astronomy app, 1 of my go to 3

Paid not recognized

I paid for a subscription. The subscription shows in my Apple account. But I can’t log in or restore to a professional account.

Novice here, and One of the best $29.99yr I’ve spent.

Wish there was a lifetime option. Probably be too expensive.

Look I didn’t know much about astronomy before a few months ago, but this app help guide me through some long trial and error sessions. The pro version has SO much good information with detailed events. Just keep the tutorial handy, it was all worth the set up using a detailed walk through.


Big thank you to the team still working behind the scenes to improve!!!!

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.

Love it!

Everything I need in one place, works very well and usually almost spot on, prob more accurate than our local TV weatherman, ha ha!

Best app for astrophotogrpahy

This app is the most accurate I’ve used yet. Worth every penny.

Stopped Workong

I’ve had this app for some time now. And on my iPhone iOS 18.7.2 it stopped working a few weeks back. The main page keeps reloading, no matter where I’m at in the app. It’s essentially useless now. And I can’t find any way to contact the developer for support.. I will really miss this app, and will be hard pressed to find a replacement. But I don’t seem to have any other option as this point.

Temperatures wildly & consistantly inacurate

I’ve used Astrospheric for years and love nearly everything about it — it’s an incredible tool for planning astrophotography. However, the temperature data for Arizona is consistently 8–12°F too low, making dew and temperature planning unreliable. Other apps are accurate within 1°F. Please fix or improve the temperature source — this app would be perfect, and I’d subscribe instantly if it were accurate.

An amazing app for amateur astronomers

I’ve found no better way to get cloud forecasts than this app, or the much clunker to use website cleardarksky. This is so much more convenient, and the premium subscription, giving you more weather models to look at, is even better. Worth it if you have the money to spare.

The Best!

Astrospheric is the best Astro app there is period!! End of debate.
