Wow!

Anyway, I’m setting up my scope getting ready for nine reviewing and decided to check out the weather news. I just go to sky clock but decided to get on the App Store and found this little gem and I do mean it’s a gem. It does more things then you can dream about. I am so impressed. I’m gonna take it out tonight and play with it while my scope is taking pictures. I don’t know if the developers read this but man you guys knocked it out of the park great job.

A solid, useful app being actively developed

I don’t rate all of the apps I use but I wanted to weigh in here as the app had not received a lot of reviews and the ones out there are outdated. While there are a couple of Astro weather apps that I like better, this one should still be on your device. It is useful, accurate, is actively being developed and improved and does offer some tools (sky chart) that others do not. The developer recently added English for the events tab and the events listed are broader than those listed in other apps. The more developers we have working on tools for astrophotography the better. Support this one, it is worth it.

Wished I could like it

Unfortunately the Events are in Chinese.

After updating this app for your Sep 18, 2019 it is corrupted & never open, hope you will fix ?bug casing this malfunction in your forthcoming update soon. Thanks

Chinese prompt on app start

On initial app start it asks for location and notification permissions, which is fine. But then there is a third dialog in Chinese with a smiley face and an 'ok' button. I have no idea what I'm agreeing to. Uninstalled.
