AURA - Smart Weather for Drone App Reviews

I would say that this app is pretty spot on when it comes to planning a flight. Iv used it 3 times now and it seems to be pretty spot on most of the time. The only downside I see is having to pay money for LIVE updates, other than that its a GREAT app to use. I like how much information is packed into it like the mapping that shows you Airports and Hospitals and such all in one app.

I need the ability to drop a pin on the map in “time travel”. Not every place I fly has an address. Sometimes I just know where the location is on the map and don’t have the address. It would be much less time consuming just to be able to drop a pin instead of tying to I’d an address nearby, especially if my flight location is more than a hundred miles from my current location. Otherwise, great app.

As I posted my previous review, the developer emailed me with a response to my question - it was matter of bad timing on my part. I take it all back.

This is a well thought out unique app. The data from this app is right on the Target so to speak. If you crash your Drone don’t blame the app just Kidding! I hope you Download the App I don’t feel you will be disappointed! ( Really) Thanks I have to go find my Drone Forgot my Glasses with my luck it’s in a Tree that I cannot claim!

I like the app but not for an annual subscription. They do update it to fix the issues (bugs).

Very nice looking app. It would be nice if I’t had a direct tie in to LAANC but it is a forecast app. Love the interface look and feel. It seemed a bit clunky having to go to a different (map) mode to move locations but I get the flow. Unfortunately it doesn’t warn my of the flight restrictions Vandenburg Space Force Base has in place near me. I need to go to an entirely different app to see that. I popped for a year, I’ll see how it goes. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be family shareable. Wo

Used the Aura app many times and found it very useful and accuracy was surprisingly excellent. So much so that I subscribed. Meanwhile with the recent update it tells me that I am in a No Fly Zone. With no way to make any setting changes to adjust the "zone" radius. I am NOT in a No Fly Zone. There are a couple of private a runways (not airports) but no reason to call it a NFZ. Nearest County Airport is over 10 miles North of me. I will not be renewing my subscription until the Devs incorp

This app would be awesome if it actually worked. The skies were clear, and the app said there was a storm 0 miles from me with a high chance of precipitation. It was raining, and the app said there was a storm 8 miles from me with a 0 percent chance of precipitation. Upon starting the app, I have to refresh at least three times, because it gets my location wrong.

It constantly says that it is not a good time to fly. My other apps are more reliable and prove this app wrong every time. I paid for the subscription to this app thinking that maybe it would be more reliable but it’s not any better. If they don’t get it right soon then I will definitely unsubscribe to it. Constantly says you are in a no fly zone no matter where you are. I travel all the states and this app always says no fly zone. Fix it or take this app off the market.

I just discovered the app shows feels-like temp or wind chill index (-3F) rather than actual (10F). Why? Also, I subscribe, yet the app frequently asks me if I want to subscribe and doesn’t give me access to the subscription features without an app-force-restart. I like the idea, but sadly, the app appears to be riddled with bugs and no way to contact support, only showing a guided walkthrough of the app when clicking on Help. With updates to the app appearing very few and far-between, and no
