## Live Sky Reviews in United States

### *---- "Just plain wrong"
This app gives incorrect information about the positions of heavenly bodies. For example, it currently says that Saturn is below the horizon. I can assure you that it isn't. The app either gets my location wrong or doesn't know what time it is.
-- ou110alum, 2024-10-19

### ***** "What is LiveSky?"
LiveSky sends 100% of information of the moon & the planets, but not the sun. LiveSky shows me space objects and when they are above the horizon. I love it!!!!
-- Messenger Kids’ Abouts, 2024-04-23

### **--- "Timing is off"
App shows my location correctly, but has the position of all objects incorrect. Appears to be 6 to 7 hours off.
-- Drjerry2, 2023-03-07

### ***** "Fantastic app!"
This is one of those handy go to apps that you use 1 million times and you don’t know what you did without it! 
App is so reasonably priced, you don’t mind paying the mere pittance of the in-app purchase to remove the ads. Fantastic app!
-- EXTRA-ECCLESIAM-NULLA-SALUS, 2022-12-15

### *---- "Looks useful if it was correct"
I'm looking at the sky. Venus is just about to set, the moon and Saturn are in West, and Jupiter is high.  The app says that none of them have risen yet.  No idea what's wrong. The location is correct, and I don't see anything about setting the date/time.  It's too bad, because it seems like a really useful app.
-- hymie!, 2021-12-07

### *---- "Disappointed"
I was expecting to see a “map” of the sky. I didn’t get that, I got a description of where it it and that it’s above the skyline. Sooty, not happy with this.
-- Toadsshadow, 2021-12-04

### *---- "Wrong about planets above horizon"
Either the app does not know where I am or it does not know the season. It tells me Jupiter is below the horizon when it has been up for several hours.( verified by other apps)
-- astroerrorfinder, 2021-09-13

### ***** "Good"
Really good 😌 app
-- lane is so cool and ama, 2021-03-02

### **--- "Needs work"
Tried lookin up Mars, and it said it was at 90x25d (az/alt) when observationally it was more at 170x75d
-- M4tt3y, 2021-01-13

### ***** "App of the times"
Great app
-- Bakzooka Robbie, 2020-11-30

### **--- "Confused"
I too this app confused. I am looking at the moon in the western sky, yet the app indicates the moon is just rising in the east. It also tells me that Mars is rising in the east yet it is directly above  the moon in the western sky
-- Stevel361, 2019-01-11

### *---- "Disappointment"
Not helpful. Inaccurate for my location.
-- spraguepk, 2018-09-13

### *---- "Don’t bug me"
Don’t bug me while I’m using the app
-- FCBrown00, 2018-07-20

### *---- "Cannot input position coordinates manually."
Useless to me.
-- Steadilyadvancin, 2018-07-06

### ***** "Always gives me answers"
So often I’ll look up to the sky and think “what is that bright object”. With this app you don't have to wonder. Just hold the app up to the sky facing the object and it will tell you everything.
I especially love how it pointed put 5 visible planets tonight (including Earth).
-- Gcburns, 2018-07-05

### ***-- "What about artificial satellite’s?"
I think this is a pretty neat and useful app but it would be much better if also included man made objects, ie Hubble, ISS, etc.  I would consider paying if the app included man made celestial objects.
-- Closetmonst3r, 2018-06-08

### *---- "Sun data"
The sun appears in the screen shots at the App Store. But no sun in the app as downloaded. 

Ephemeris data is only 1 arc minute. 

I had hoped for better. And without the sun it’s worthless to me.
-- Larrygps, 2018-01-20

### *---- "It never lets u observe anything"
I never know how to observe planets I want to see
-- shawnneeee, 2018-01-07

### ***** "I like this app I know the solar system now I know when each planet is out"
I give it five stars
-- Krschip, 2017-09-04

### **--- "Seems to get confused"
I can see Saturn in the SSW right now and this app is saying it rises in 40 minutes.  It's displaying my location correctly, so there's clearly something wrong.  This morning the app said Venus was 10 degrees below the horizon when I was looking at it about 30 degrees above the horizon.

Disappointing as I wanted to use the alt-az coordinates for Messier objects when I don't drag out my equatorial mount for observing.

Perhaps it's pilot error and I have something set incorrectly.  We'll see.
-- Woobub, 2017-08-25
