    Fun and informative app if you are into moon phases. The 1x1 widget can be kind of glitchy disappearing and having to be added again (over multiple version and multiple devices), but is good while it is there. The big issue is the location tracking. I turned it to always to "help" the app and Android warned me about it less than 24 hours later. Every 2-4 minutes it was getting location, even overnight while sleeping. What a battery killer! Maybe the Pro version is better?

    I'm already familiar with this app because I've used it extensively in my other devices, and I have to give it the highest rating available, so 5 Stars for making Phases of the Moon and letting us use it free... And I do not recall ever seeing an ad there after frequent and longtime use. I even dialed it back 64 years and learned in which phase of the lunar cycle I was born. I use this app more than any other 'standby" apps I have in any of my devices. Always right on the button accurate, too!!

    Calibration is super glitchy. You can turn your phone 360 degrees but everything will still point in the same direction while shaking. I have anther app that works perfectly and also let's you zoom in a ton into the moon, naming all of its crators & giving information about them (all the stars & planets, too). I haven't played around much with this app yet so I'm unaware of all it can do. I took 2 stars away for bad calibration (point my phone at the moon, app says moon's behind me).
