## What is solarFLUX?

solarFLUX gives you everything you need to track geomagnetic activity and aurora visibility, all in one clean interface.

• Home Screen Widget — live Kp index glanceable right from your home screen, no app required
• 24-Hour History — see how geomagnetic activity has changed over the past day
• 3-Day Forecast — NOAA's 3-day geomagnetic forecast broken down by 3-hour intervals
• Aurora Conditions — know when and where aurora activity is likely
• Space Weather Alerts — stay informed about incoming solar storms and geomagnetic disturbances
