the goto app for fast planet and star finding. its basic and fast interface has spectrum options and it does the job. no ad hassles,used it for years on various devices. a basuc no frills tool that has never failed yet.
This app works pretty well but is a little off its Target I noticed when the planets lined up on 12/21/2020. When I compared the app's placement with the stars in the sky, I noticed a difference. Otherwise it's a wonderful app to become more aware of what's up there.
Even after a many years and several phones and tablets, this remains the best skymap that's available. I have dragged this app all around the planet and it has never failed. Thank you very much! 😊😊👍
What happened to the menu that shows when planets would be visible? Everything else about this app is the same and still great but missing that very useful feature. Bring it back please!
I've loved and used this app for years, used to have some better features and a little more options on orientations and such but it's still neat! Thanks for publishing such a cool app!
Poor. Downloaded the app and it fails to open. Just flashes on the screen and then closes.
This app is very helpful and easy to use, e.g. wanted to take a video of a sunset from a pier, so used this app to find out best place and time to view it. There should be no issues running this app unless your hardware or Android need verification.
I had this for iOS and loved it. The only negative about the Android version is that it doesn't remember that I set the orientation to manual. That's a big negative. It hasn't been updated since 2017, so I don't think it will be fixed.
Nice, uncomplicated, very usable. In Planet view, I wish lat and long were visible. Now it is very hard to go where landers are if you know their coordinates.
Super useful, identifying planets and star placement has never been easier. Thank you.
Use the App all the time Android. Take SCREENSHOTS in conjunction of ASTROLOGY positions when I can't take a PHOTO because either it is too much daylight or PLANETS are under the HORIZON. Great TEACHING tool for young CHILDREN & a FUN ENTERTAINMENT for my older Astrologer Facebook group friends & just as informative. You still have to wake up early to get the Screenshot. Got both Screenshot & Photo Dec20 by being around at the right time for once in lifetime conjunction of Tropical Jup♒ Sat♒ Pl♑
I cant change the settings to automatic for when displaying the planets. I have a newer android phone and it seems to only work on older versions. Is there a way to fix this?
An older version had a "visability" mode where one could see when certain planets and the moon could be seen.
Great app. Been using it for years. Only slight issue is the light side of the moon is on the wrong side in the southern hemisphere.
The background is low quality, manual orientation turns way too fast, almost no content and settings in app.
Think this is great app helped me find Jupiter and Satern. The two planets are only inline every 800 years so happy that I was to see them so close together if it was not for this app
Loved this on iOS, like it on android. Easy to use, live star map, but missing the 'planet visibility' option like iphone enjoys
Like others have said, LOVED this app on iOS. Frustrating UI on Android. I will continue to use it... and will change to five stars if an update is pushed 😊
I love this app even tho it hasn't been updated in 3 years, it works perfectly everywhere I've traveled. Thanks!
One of the best free app and my favourite since many years. My ios and android both love this app. Keep installing on my every new devices. Truely amazing..
Its good, but you should be able to see what's infront of you through your camera aswell so you can see exactly where it is
This WAS a 5 star app, but for some reason there is No way of seeing when planet are visible, this app was the app i used for my telescope and i cant find a different app to use. If it still exists and i Just cant find it, please reply
A most wonderful, easy to use, and informative application for those special nights.
This app is accurate cause I pointed it at the sun in real life, than pointed it at the sun where it was on the app and they where in the same place.
Great app!! It really helps finding planets and stars, great interface!
The IOS version is phenomenal & used it for many years in the military aviation world for quick reference flight planning around astronomical/nautical/civil twilight to determine timelines around NVG flights; saved me from having to dig it up on clunky military software or call ATC. Now I have an Android phone & I couldn't be more disappointed. Why in the world wouldn't you use the same interface for android?! It degrades the planet viewing abilities too since you have to guess visibility time.
