LUNA provides a close approximation to the correct lunar phase and position at any given time and place on Earth. It estimates what the moon will look like. It is not meant to be a precise lunar phase calendar (you will find many other free apps for that functionality). LUNA is much more. It will help you to develop and increase your understanding of lunar phases, of why the moon can appear “upside down” in another part of the world, or tilted another way at different times of day or night. LUNA also lets you discover a number of interesting facts about the moon and about past and future missions to the moon. If you are interested in astronomy and want to try a fascinating app which may give you more insight into the moon, try LUNA. Experiment, observe and learn!

I don't know what to make of this there is tons of information but you can change it all the time I just don't get it sorry by the way lettering is so light against the blue background about Luna finding coordinates I could barely read it how about black on a blue background instead uninstall sorry
Beautiful graphics , amazing sound and clear & easy to use
Was looking for an app to display the relative position of the Moon, the Sun and Earth to help answer simple questions from kids, but this app provided much more. It's easy to use, have no bug, no adds, no extra complexity. Congratulations to the author(s) !
I absolutely love this app. Literally the only improvement I could imagine is to add a widget!! I 🖤 Luna!!
very informative, for its small size it is an essential app for farmers, botanists, etc.
It is nice for the beginners
It's a nice teaching aid and I can see it having a good application for public outreach and familiarizing beginners with facts about the Moon. I like the screen where it shows you what kind of Moon it is today, where it is in its cycle, etc. Very cool!
Love the app beautiful fun to use very informative but it needs a refresher option to be able to sync date and time
What can I say...The Best Moon App Ever😉
Love it
It's a nice app. I do wish I could just type in my coordinates, as I am having trouble using the globe to get them - finally got close enough I guess - same region anyway. Also wish it would display dates for an entire year.
