If you want an app where you can easily identify different constellations without any fuss, this app is for you!! It doesn't show you a stupidly large amount of stars like some of the other apps, but honestly, I like it better this way. It just shows what you would normally see in the sky if you're not away from civilization with no light pollution. Also, it didn't have a pop up ad every 5 seconds telling us to upgrade the membership. Overall, I am really happy with this app!!

Nice app. When I first downloaded and tried it, the compass settings (and sky) didn't line up with reality - ie. South showed up as though I was looking northeast. A few days later though, it worked perfectly. The graphics on this app are really good. If you hover over a star, satellite, or planet, it gives you info on it. In the case of planets and satellites it expands the planet or star into an image of it. If you hover near constellation it connects the stars with lines and an image.

I like this app for constellations and stars. Looking at where the planets are is really cool, too, except, where's Pluto? My major gripe is that the app doesn't recognize where the moon is. It's right in front of me and I have my phone camera pointed right at it, but all shows is just stars. I've tried the figure-8 recalibration method several times, but the app still can't find the moon in the correct spot - it shows it a little ways to the left. Please fix.
