Aim this app at the sky to see Santa fly by
(KTLA) – There's a fun new way to see Santa in the skies right above your own neighborhood, and it comes from the makers of Pokémon Go.
Niantic's new augmented reality app is called See Santa Fly. It uses similar tech you may have experienced during the peak of the Pokémon Go app craze to give you a glimpse of a completely different elusive character: Santa.
To try it, just go to SeeSantaFly.com from your mobile phone's web browser. It works on iPhone and Android.
Follow the prompts, then aim your phone at the sky.
Instantly, you'll reveal a magical night scene, complete with a giant moon.
If you're lucky, you might catch Santa and his reindeer flying over your area.
You can even use your phone to take a snapshot for proof. The web app is free.
