v0.30.0 — Better Aurora Predictions for Australia
Better Aurora Predictions for Australia
This release adds a second aurora data source specifically for Australian photographers and improves aurora scoring accuracy.
Added
- Australian Aurora Data - We now fetch aurora predictions from the Bureau of Meteorology Space Weather Services in addition to NOAA. The Australian K_aus index is more relevant for southern hemisphere aurora viewing.
Improved
- Smarter Aurora Scoring - When our data sources disagree, we now use the higher prediction. If either source predicts aurora activity, you'll see it reflected in your scores.
- More Frequent Updates - Aurora data is now refreshed every 30 minutes (previously 90 minutes) to better track rapidly changing space weather conditions.
Fixed
- Aurora Scoring Timezone Bug - Fixed an issue where aurora scores weren't calculated correctly for locations outside UTC timezone.
- iOS Release Notifications - Tapping a "new version" notification on iOS now correctly opens the release notes.
