Description
Reporting Auroras from the Ground Up since 2012! Aurorasaurus is the world's first free mobile app to put citizen science and crowd-sourced (Twitter) ground truth observations of aurora on a real-time Google map along with weather and predictions for where the Northern Lights should be visible. When aurora occurs near you, we will let you know promptly and in simple language to increase your chances of spotting this beautiful, rare sight.
Additional features include the capability to register and receive location-based notifications, a real-time monitor of space weather activity, the capability to help verify tweets and search for real sightings, the answers to your questions, and more. We are free of charge and advertisements.

Customer Reviews
Disappointed
I immediately got warnings that my iPad was infected and would destroy data in my cloud as well as other devices. I continues reading further to then be rerouted to a survey noting my ISP and my current IP address. This program seems suspicious and I will be deleting. I feel foolish for being duped having already given my email on registration, I will probably get inundated with spam.
Love it
User friendly, good features. Recently having a little trouble getting the legend box to go away.
Doesn't work on my iPhone
Aurorasaurus is great on a Big Computer (5 stars there).
But this App doesn't work on my iPhone. When they are able to get this App working for my phone, I'll raise the number of stars.
