No alerts
The information I get is historical. About what has happened . I’d like an app that predicts that in a few hours there will be a visible aurora.
Removed most useful function
Original Comment: They’ve removed the cloud cover option on the map so this is no longer useful
After Developer Response: This is so frustrating - here in the UK this MetOffice data should be more freely available especially for apps like this. So inaccurate to say ‘they’ve removed the feature’ it’s clearly not viable to provide it now which is not the developers fault. Thanks for the explanation review star rating put up from an incredibly frustrated 1 to an empathetic 4

Response from developer
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. Clearly the primary purpose of the app is to provide alerts relating to geomagnetic activity and thus the chance of seeing the Aurora. The cloud overlay was / is an added, secondary, feature. Sadly the UK Met Office retired their API that was used to provide the free cloud layer data. Work is ongoing with the app, and I will endeavour to fix the cloud layer in the coming months if it is possible to find a free cloud layer.
Love it
Love watching the webcam
Map
Where has the weather overlay gone from the map
Honest App
I’ve been using this app for years …. It’s good BUT why has my cloud cover gone from the map ?
