My app listing

Here are the astronomy related apps currently on my iPhone. Might be of interested to some:
  • yr.no - really detailed weather forecast running off the European model
  • teamviewer - used to control the PC in the observatory
  • Solar Monitor - aurora alerts
  • CamViewer - used to watch IP Foscams in the observatory
  • stellarium
  • Sunrise Free - has solar noon time as well
  • 3D Sun
  • Oz Weather
That's it. If you haven't got yr.no already, download it straight away!

James,

There's something fishy with yr.no

When I went to install it, it said something like, "To help ensure the security of your Apple ID we require additional information" and requested my Apple ID and password. I stopped right there.

No thanks.

H this has nothing to do with the app but is a new Apple security measure.
