- Semidiameter
- Moon phase and age of the Moon.
*Planets:
- GHA/dec for Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
*Stars:
- Magnitude, SHA/dec of 99 stars ordered by SHA.
*Corrections:
- Correction for the atmospheric refraction.

Purchased the app and gave it a try, iPhone 13 Pro with iOS 16.1.
Didn’t fetch time or location, and tapping into the fields to enter data manually abruptly ended the app, repeatedly. Obviously, not updated on the newest OS version. I‘m asking for my money back!
