Galaxy S7 edge keeps stopping on this phone
Where my pro pack I purchased years ago
What a disappointment. I saw this on a friend's iPhone and it rocked. Downloaded the $.99 version to my android phone. Tapped on a satellite and it sent the screen to somewhere else in the sky. Suggested I pay another $6.99 for the information upgrade, which I did. Then when I tapped on a planet, it suggested I should upgrade to the pro version, which I did, for an additional $2.49, which seems to have loaded an entirely different version making 2 versions on my phone, both buggy.
Just tried the latest upgrade (26th Nov 2015) and it still doesn't know where North (or any other direction) is. I have tried it on several Samsung devices with no success. This used to be a pretty good ap, but ruined by last few updates.
I just bought it like 30 minutes ago, I wish it wasn't so sensitive, when I try to move it around & that I could turn off the sky calibration, as it's not as accurate. Overall, it does help find constellations & is helpful. i wish it showed other things like where the pleiades are, cause I'm sure I found them, I know the story, but confirmation would be nice.
The new version only gives me an insufficient memory error when I try to install it. I know all the tricks to work around that error and have all the other apps I want installed OK but this one refuses to work. So my purchase is wasted.
I do not live in the ocean off of Africa!!! Useless app! Doesn't work well for anything at all on any of my devices! Touch the screen or try to zoom and your screwed!! I had more features and a working app when I bought this now you took them away and we have to pay for "Pro" to get back what I bought and had then you STOLE features from us to use as ransom??? Total obvious Scam!!! Google should investigate you ASAP!
Used to like it, since latest version unable to use at all, pretty poor for paid version will not even open on Samsung Galaxy Note 4
Great app, love the floormat. Only bad thing is the tool buttons need to be a little bigger and a little bit more space between the buttons. Thank you
Calibration is completely off and has been for months. Can't zoom in to see something specific. Used to be my favourite app now it is unusable
Great music for night viewing. Sadly, the GPS are not correct. It said Im in USA meanwhile I actually in Indonesia.
Pure rubbish on my Samsung galaxy s7. Always shows South no matter direction it's pointed. Works only on iphone not Samsung.
With the help of this app, I located Mars tonight and it was AWESOME! And I saw Jupiter and Saturn - I never could've picked that out before! I'm in awe and feeling very tiny right now. It's mind blowing...
It's fun to see the constellations move with the seasons and when I travel. Even in the city when I can't see the sky. Yeah, the music is kind of annoying. But just turn down your volume! Works great, no errors.
It's what it says, trip on how many satellites are on your opposite hemisphere, your polar opposite staring through the earth
Bought it long ago and had fun with it. Updates broke it, no doubt to get you to upgrade for even more money. Wildly inaccurate and sluggish as hell. Avoid!
LOVED this app but ever since the Samsung android update in my s7 edge, it no longer works. Everytime I try to open it, the app crashes, even tried redownloading and it still crashes. Can't use anymore.
I downloaded the most recent update and now can no longer access the info on satelites, rocket bodies etc., which were in the paid for version formerly. It's telling me to pay for the pro version to get the info, even tho i'd already paid to have it in my version.
Could not use the app. Kept shutting down upon opening. Waste of money. Do not purchase.
Rubbish - dont waste your money - crashes every time I try to open it
Terrible app.... Eveytime I touch the screen it goes to North and is jerky.... I must say the iPhone version is so much better
Stopped using this app last year as it doesn't work. Just downloaded it again and it still doesn't. Just tried again on S7. Still doesn't work. Money back please?
The font on the map is unreadable. Can't zoom in.
cannot get past splash screen. used to be good....now....waste of space and data
