## What is Solar Alert?

Solar Alert is the most comprehensive safety system based on Artificial Intelligence-processed data, designed to protect your life from extreme space weather events. These events can cause disasters such as accidents in all types of transportation, massive shortages of food and water lasting months or even years, and overloads in electrical grids that could disable household appliances in millions of homes, triggering massive fires in residential buildings where thousands of lives would be at risk if they are not warned in time.

Brief, simple, and clear, yet also packed with extensive technical data when needed, Solar Alert warns and protects you and your entire family from the potential dangers of severe solar storms—events that NASA scientists have already warned will undoubtedly occur in the coming years.

With the help and information provided by this application, you will gain the following advantages:

√ Take the necessary precautions to reduce risks associated with malfunctions in telecommunications and all types of vehicles, as there is a high risk of general system failure in their electrical systems, including aircraft control and propulsion systems in flight, in the event of an extreme solar event.

√ Disconnect and isolate your solar panel installation and other household appliances in time to protect them from devastating electrical grid overloads, especially to prevent fires in your home.

√ Avoid extreme situations caused by failures in electromechanical systems such as trains or elevators in buildings, where rescue operations may take days to reach you.

√ Stay alert and prepared for potential earthquakes triggered by intense solar activity, as there is a statistically proven correlation between these phenomena.

Key Features of Solar Alert:

• Automatic Early Warning System that analyzes data from NOAA and NASA, calculates alerts with minute precision, and presents recommendations in a summarized format—allowing you to take action up to 3 days in advance to protect your life and your family.

• Innovative Solar Plasma Monitor, designed to offer you a unique experience in understanding the impact and interaction of solar storms as they travel toward Earth.

• Intelligent Scientific Panels, providing you with quick and precise information, granting invaluable access to the most relevant scientific data.

• Preparation Checklist, listing essential precautions to take before the arrival of an extreme solar storm.

Now, with Solar Alert, you can stay prepared and notified up to 3 days in advance of solar storms that will undoubtedly disrupt our technological society.

Solar Alert is a protection service available through an auto-renewable subscription designed to save your life from the expected Great Solar Storm. The payment for this vital alert service will be charged to your iTunes account at the time of purchase confirmation and will automatically renew at the end of each subscription period. This subscription, which includes a trial period, renews automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends and can be managed by the user in iOS Settings -> iTunes Store -> Apple ID -> View Apple ID.

### 3/5 — Too Much For Me

*2026-08-14, version 4.1.20*

Hello, Developer, and thank you for your kind response.  I will certainly check back and update my review.  All the best!

__________

Original Review:

I really wanted to like this App, especially given all the great reviews.  However, for me, the Graphics and Colors are disorganized and too intense.  As well, I didn’t like the background images where the Alerts were.  The images took away from the written information, as well as drawing your focus away from the icons at the top and even dulling one of the icons at the bottom that I initially thought was just a part of the graphics.  Then the graphics with the huge Sun coming into focus, etc.  I’m so sorry, but it was just too much for me.  This App has a lot of great information.  It just needs a huge UI cleanup.  I would suggest that people try it out in spite of my review because it does have awesome information and some might not care about the UI/graphics/etc.

### 5/5 — Great tool for Fire, Police , emergency Management, weather forecasters and Preppers

*2026-06-05, version 4.1.19*

Great tool for weather forecasters as well as emergency managers and preppers. The sun and the flares and solar storms can greatly affect fire, police and EMS radios, 800 mhz  , short wave etc. 
This app is worth every penny for the data and education offered through this app.  Graphics are incredible as well.  I’ve already referred many colleagues to this app. Keep up the good work.

### 3/5 — Not free

*2026-02-04, version 4.1.19*

Although not expensive $9.99/year basic plan, it’d be transparent to disclose in the App Store intro

### 2/5 — Alertes non adapté

*2025-11-16*

Je reçois des alertes la nuit alors que ma région n’est pas touché et je ne peut pas changer le dispositif de notification , c’est un logiciel pour les américains du nord

**Developer response:** Bonjour, merci pour votre avis et pour avoir pris le temps de commenter.

Nous souhaitons préciser que les alertes peuvent bien être adaptées aux préférences de chaque utilisateur. Dans l’application, il existe un réglage de seuil d’alerte qui permet de décider quel type d’événements recevoir et à partir de quelle intensité. Si vous souhaitez recevoir moins de notifications, vous pouvez facilement les ajuster dans cette section.

Concernant les alertes reçues la nuit, les appareils Apple disposent d’options permettant de mettre les notifications en sourdine pendant la nuit, à l’exception de celles considérées comme critiques, comme celles liées à un événement solaire extrême. De cette manière, le système de notifications peut être configuré et adapté à vos besoins.

À propos de l’idée que l’app serait uniquement destinée aux Nord-Américains, il est vrai qu’en Amérique du Nord il existe des cartes détaillées des réseaux électriques qui ne sont pas disponibles dans tous les pays. Cependant, toutes les autres fonctionnalités de l’application restent pleinement valables partout dans le monde. De plus, lorsqu’il peut y avoir des effets sur les infrastructures électriques, l’app envoie des alertes appropriées, en proposant des recommandations et des actions à suivre en fonction du type et de l’intensité de l’événement solaire, afin que l’utilisateur puisse agir de manière préventive avec le maximum d’informations possible.

Lors de récents événements solaires, des aurores ont même été observées à des latitudes comme celle de la France, ce qui montre que ces phénomènes peuvent avoir des effets jusque dans les latitudes moyennes. En cas d’événement solaire extrême, des surcharges et des pannes pourraient survenir dans les réseaux électriques ainsi que dans d’autres systèmes électromécaniques (comme certains moyens de transport ou des infrastructures sensibles, telles que les centrales nucléaires). C’est pourquoi disposer d’informations en amont et de recommandations claires est particulièrement important, et c’est précisément l’objectif de l’application.

L’application est conçue pour fournir une information utile et fiable à tout utilisateur, où qu’il vive. Nous vous invitons à vérifier vos réglages afin que les alertes s’adaptent au mieux à vos besoins et, si vous le souhaitez, à nous contacter depuis l’app elle-même pour que nous puissions vous aider avec la configuration.

### 4/5 — Good warnings but

*2025-11-14, version 4.1.19*

The interface is extremely not user friendly, lots of icons with no descriptions and long loading times to try and figure out what everything does

### 5/5 — Good app to follow the sun

*2025-10-13, version 4.1.19*

I’ve been using Solar Alert for over a year now and honestly it’s become one of the most interesting apps on my iPhone.
The alerts are usually pretty accurate and it makes me feel calm knowing I can get ready if there’s a solar storm coming.
Overall, it’s really good for those of us who like to keep an eye on solar activity and how it can affect us day by day.

### 3/5 — Navigation could be clearer

*2025-10-10, version 4.1.19*

I find it hard to understand all the icons. I wish the navigation was clearer. That’s my biggest issue. Other than that, I like the app.

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing app!

*2025-10-04*

Wow, didn't expect an app about space weather to be so addictive. I've been using it for like 3 months now and I learn something new every day.

What I love most is that solar plasma monitor - sounds super technical but it's actually fascinating to see solar flares in real time. My 10-year-old son gets mesmerized watching the "explosions" lol.

The notifications are great, they alert me when there are going to be auroras and I've already gotten some incredible photos thanks to that. The panels with all the scientific data look complicated at first but once you get the hang of it it's like having NASA info on your phone.
I mainly use it to know when there will be good auroras for photography, but I've also become a bit addicted to checking the "space weather" - who would have thought the sun had so many moods 😂

The app is super smooth and you can tell it's made with love. The visual effects when there's solar activity are brutal.

If you like astronomy or you're just curious about space, definitely try it. I'm not a scientist or anything like that, but it has me hooked.
Highly recommended 👍

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your amazing review!

We’re thrilled to hear that you’ve been exploring space weather with Solar Alert for three months now — and that both you and your son enjoy watching the solar eruptions in real time. That sense of curiosity is exactly what we aim to inspire!

Our goal has always been to make the science behind the Sun and auroras accessible and exciting for everyone, whether you’re an astronomer or just someone curious about space. We’re so glad to know that the alerts have helped you capture some beautiful aurora photos, and that the scientific panels — even if a bit technical at first — have become a useful and engaging tool for you.

We’ll keep improving the app to bring you even more accurate data and stunning visuals. Thank you for noticing the love and care we put into developing Solar Alert — feedback like yours is the best fuel to keep us going.

Warm regards,
The Solar Alert Development Team

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-08-09, version 4.1.17*

It’s great. Only thing that would make it five stars for me is a way to go forward and back in an easy one line list what the history and projected flares are so it’s simple by time and date. I like what’s there but sometimes I just want a simple way to look at things and have a clear outline of what was and what’s ahead

### 5/5 — The more you know..

*2025-08-04, version 4.1.17*

The more you know, the more you appreciate this app.
