What’s New Version 1.3.1
We've fixed some bugs and make some minor adjustments to make the app even faster and reliable.
Description
The Magnetic Storms application was originally developed to allow monitoring of the Earth's magnetic field in near real time, using data from GOES satellites that constantly monitor solar activity and a set of magnetic stations distributed around the Earth. With the improvement of the application due to the huge number of users and the availability of new parameters related to the Sun and Space Weather by the space agencies, lots of other information was added and they are shown in a simple and intuitive way.
The main parameters presented are the Kp Index, the A Index, the instantaneous speed of the solar wind, the number of class C, M and X solar flares observed in X-rays, in addition to the flux of protons and electrons, flux of X-rays and magnetic field measurements observed by GOES-16. With an analysis of this information it is possible to anticipate sudden changes in the Earth's magnetic field at ground level and the occurrence of aurora with some advance.
An ideal application for anyone who wants to monitor solar activity and its implications on Earth, such as problems in the transmission of radio and TV waves, blackouts in electricity transformer stations, auroras, magnetic storms. It is the perfect app for anyone interested in Space Weather in general, and is available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and French.
As a way of keeping the app distributed for free and constantly updated, we kindly ask you to rate the app ("stars") and write a brief description of why you use it and (we hope you) enjoy it. Criticism and suggestions are always welcome at mikebm10.appledeveloper@gmail.com.
NOTE: the parameters shown in the application are obtained from the research entities responsible for their collection and processing, and depend on the availability and access to the electronic servers of these entities. Any connection speed problems with the servers or temporary unavailability of information by those institutions can affect the functioning of the application, and are beyond the control of the developers. Problems should be reported by email mikebm10.appledeveloper@gmail.com, with a description of the observed effects. Please do not assign a low rating in the evaluation of the application for possible failures in the servers, which are not our responsibility. An email message will be promptly answered and possible measures will be taken. We thank you for your understanding.

We've fixed some bugs and make some minor adjustments to make the app even faster and reliable.
Build 849167429v1.32022-05-19 16:54:26
In this version we use the following solar activity indicators, presented in a simple and illustrative graphic way:
- Kp index of the last three days
- A index of the last three days
- solar wind speed, almost real-time
- number of category C, M and X flares from the previous 3 days, observed in X-rays
- X-ray flux with passband between 0.1 and 0.8 nm observed by GOES-16
- proton flux with energy greater than 10 MeV observed by GOES-16
- proton flux with energy greater than 50 MeV observed by GOES-16
- proton flux with energy greater than 100 MeV observed by GOES-16
- electron flow with energy greater than 2 MeV observed by GOES-16
- Hp magnetic field observed by GOES-16
- Total magnetic field (Htot) observed by GOES-16
- summary chart of the main elements that characterize solar activity, in real time
Build 836230256v1.2.92020-06-02 15:30:28
Prevent a crash caused by particles data not available from NGDC. Sorry about that, but the app depends upon this data, and the organization has stopped to distribute the data without warning or alternative.
Build 825652347v1.2.82018-01-18 16:17:29
We are bringing you a much better Magnetic Storms app!
Some bug fixes, some improvements, and your favorite space weather app is ready to go!
Thank you very much for supporting our app! Please write a review after downloading this new version, as the old ones are not valid for new releases, and this is VERY important to help us to maintain the app working.
Build 820456665v1.2.72017-01-09 19:49:44
Minor bug fixes; we also added a new reference link.
We are ready for iOS 10. Magnetic Storms is always being improved to show you the most updated solar data and Earth magnetic activity. In this update : minor bugs corrections and some broken links were fixed. And we continue to be the topmost solar activity monitor in the planet, thanks to you! :)
Even if you already has kindly written a review, please take some seconds to update it, since the reviews are valid only for a specific version of the app. And your reviews are very valuable to us, you can be sure.
If you have any suggestion or concern about the app, please contact us using mikebm10.appledeveloper@gmail.com. We can not answer to suggestions posted in the reviews.
We wish all our users a very happy 2017, full of happiness and magnetic storms!
Best regards

Build 812771865v1.2.52015-07-09 19:14:15
Magnetic Storms is always being improved to show you the most updated solar data and Earth magnetic activity. In this update we correct an important issue and make some minor adjustments in the graphics.
This update:
Adresses an issue that prevented the Particle Flux graph to show and causes the app to crash after the NGDC data file format was changed in late june/2015
Improves some graphics
Implement some proactive actions to prevent future problems if the data file format changes again
Please spread the news about Magnetic Storms and send us your comments and suggestions. Keep watching the solar activity, we are expecting many interesting events in the next months. The solar cycle is declining in the next years, but the most spectacular events occurs in this phase.
If you find this app useful, please write a review. It is easy, fast, and help us a lot.
Build 811484085v1.22015-01-13 18:37:46
- Since late dec/2104 the sites that provided the data for Magnetic Storms were revamped, and the information could no longer be accessed. This version fixes this problem. We apologize for any inconvenience and we would like to thank all the users that send messages asking for the app and the ones that accepted to be beta testers.
- Solar wind speed was added in the screens.
- Minor bug fixes and layout adjustment for iPhone5, iPhone6 and iPhone6 Plus.
Build 15141618v1.12013-04-25 23:59:48
Some problems with the graphics of solar emitted particles were solved; some minor typos were fixed.
Build 11857242v1.02012-11-11 00:05:47
