Great catalog (M,NGC,IC +) I use it to pick targets for my telescopes. Downside appears to be picking a target, lock to sky kinda messy. The time selector almost unusable. I need to be able to pick a piece of sky and select a time. Very difficult very frustrating in current release That said the zoom feature is great the catalog very comprehensive. Everything I want but sky and time targets very rough especially the time selector

Best. I've had this on my past two smartphones. Only thing I wish it had, is facts and trivia on celestial bodies you click on without having to go to exterior sources. I get that they can't store that much info in the app, but instead of sending us to a remote website, import the information so I can stay in the app.

Excellent free version. Better than the competition. A star is deducted for a lack of benefits in the paid version, which I have unsubscribed from. What would make it worth the money for me, as an astrophotographer, would be more imagery of the Deep Sky Objects. Whilst some of the nebulae are shown in detail, most are just ill defined snowballs. Such a shame. If in addition the Telrad overlay could be edited to show fields of view for telescope/camera combinations, that would be perfect.
