Funktioniert nicht !" Seit einem Update funktioniert die App im Deutschen Raum nicht mehr, es kann kein Wetter für den Standort geladen werden …. Schade, war früher die beste App im Store. -- Oskar_1, 2023-08-10 ### *---- "Finger weg!" Abgesehen davon, dass die App extrem schlecht zu benutzen ist, werden keine Wetterdaten geladen. Das scheint dem Entwickler bewusst zu sein ohne dass man vor dem Kauf drauf hingewiesen wird. -- mohneee, 2023-06-17 ### *---- "Keine Wetterdaten verfügbar." Die App kann auf keine Wetterdaten zugreifen, daher funktioniert der beworbene Forecast zur Himmelsbeobachtung nicht. Überhaupt nicht! Der Anbieter weist auf das Problem sogar, bzw. nur auf seiner Homepage hin, verlangt hier aber volles Geld. Thema an Apple gemeldet. Karte der Lichtverschmutzung funktioniert…wer‘s braucht. App ist für mich absolut nutzlos. -- Lewin L., 2022-12-27 ### *---- "Useless" Stopped working, only error message Global forecast unavailable -- Mopperle, 2022-10-01 ### *---- "!Caution!" The app does currently not work. The global weather forecast is unavailable. This makes the app entirely useless. App author links to his support page that shows an info view. That info has no date whatsoever. I own the app for a month now, but it could be broken for WAY longer. -- Brimosimo, 2022-09-21 ### *---- "Since months doesn’t work." It is a pretty but it is like it is. -- Miguel Angel Ruiz Souza, 2022-02-13 ### ***** "It was the best until…" Really my preferred scope or astrophotographers app while it lasted. I‘d have happily paid 10€ to keep it, alas it’s been broken for a while now and the alternatives are seriously lacking. How about it, Martin? We‘, your fans, would love to read from you!! -- Astrid Hall, 2021-12-29 ### *---- "Unbrauchbar" Leider unbrauchbar, da es für meine Locationskeine Daten liefert. -- whelle, 2021-08-29 ### *---- "No forecast data available at all !" I purchased this app but it doesn’t work. It is using public weather forecast channels and it seems it stopped delivering the needed data. Due this this app hasn’t any value for me. -- skywatcher65, 2021-08-29 ### **--- "It just stopped working :-(" I really like this app, but it just stopped working saying "Global forecast unavailable" for at least a week now 😩 -- Max82de, 2021-03-03 ### **--- "Bietet zu wenig" Die kostenlose App Sky Live bietet genauso viel, ist übersichtlicher und kostenlos und GoodToStargaze bietet deutlich mehr Informationen. Leider nicht wirklich gut -- Dimi (blogbucheintrag), 2021-01-26 ### ***** "It's a most useful tool for hobby astronomers and astrophotographers!" I really like it! -- tjdomsalla, 2020-09-15 ### *---- "Wenig brauchbar" Nur zu 50% und weniger akkurat. Draußen blauer Himmel. Viele Stunden später immer noch herrliches Wetter. Keine Wolke am Himmel, bestes Astrowetter für Beobachtungen und Deep Sky Fotografie, und was zeigt mir die App an? ROT. Es soll schlechtes Wetter und bewölkt sein... Ladet euch lieber “Sky Life” da habt ihr mehr davon! -- The.Bakers, 2020-07-24 ### ***** "Ideal zur Planung" Macht was sie soll und ist recht verlässlich -- IOtaist, 2020-02-24 ### ***** "Great App. Use it everyday!" Top App! Have a look to it and you know when to plan your astronomical observation. -- Altisto, 2019-07-17 ### ****- "Almost perfect!" I really love this app. Although I don't use it for scoping, but for Astrophotography, it perfectly meets my needs 😊 However, there are some issues I have experienced and suggestions that I would like to share: There seems to be a mistake with the coordinates for latitudes and longitudes for Observatories and Dark Sky Sites. Please check the numbers, there seems to be a comma missing. I always get an error when trying to add one of these locations to my scope sites. For the saved locations it would be nice to implement a toggle function for enabling/disabling certain locations. When I'm at home I don't need to see my holiday destination forecasts, especially when using the "Best all night star gazing" function. I only what to see the scoping sites that are close to me. I also don't want to type in my holiday destinations everytime I'm traveling so this would be a good way to keep the locations saved without interfering with favorite spots around me. For the Dark Sky Map it would be awesome if a cloud coverage function would be added. Thereby it would be easier to search for random spots where the night sky is dark and clear to go scoping/shoot. For some locations there seems to be a problem with recognizing the name. Currently you have to sometimes select something that is close to the original location that you were trying to save. Maybe a flexible location pinpoint that you can drag around could solve this problem? One could thereby exactly mark the location where you want to scope/shoot. Overall I think that this is a wonderful app! Beautiful design and stable performance - great job! I hope that the developer tries to work with this feedback, in case it is realizable, and would welcome some of the above mentioned improvements/elimination of bugs. I rarely write reviews, but this app really amazed me. Keep up the great work! 💪🏻 -- JPH2809, 2017-01-10 ### *---- "nicht zu gebrauchen" die Basis Gratisversion enthält nur den Wetterbericht von 5 Tagen, sonst nichts. Dieser Wetterbericht ist regelmäßig falsch. Ausserdem kann man nicht mehr als 2 Orte voreinstellen. Alle anderen wichtigen Details, wie z.B. Angaben zur Lichtverschmutzung kosten extra. Habe gerade in-app settings gekauft-kann ich nichts mit anfangen. Wenn schon bezahlen, dann auch für Qualität. Nicht kaufen! -- Angelika Wegner, 2016-06-25 ### *---- "Mogelpackung" Habe die App hauptsächlich wegen der Lichverschmutzungskarte gekauft- diese muss jedoch durch einen weiteren in App Kauf bezahlt werden. -- SilentPainter, 2016-01-03 ### **--- "Wie jeder andere Wetterdienst" Bis auf die Lichtverschmutzungs-Karte nichts brauchbares. Die Wetterdaten sind nicht besser oder schlechter als andere. Den Vorhersagen kann man nur ca. 2h in die Zukunft trauen. Keinesfalls sollte man das Wochenende anhand dieser Daten planen. -- 2Turbo, 2015-02-27 ### ***** "Perfekt" Absolut präzise Vorhersagen, keine Ahnung wie Martin das hinbekommt, aber die App weiß zu gefühlten 90% besser über mein lokales Wetter bescheid, als alle anderen Wetterapps/seiten zusammen! Bisher konnte ich meine Nächte immer nutzen, wenn scopenights dieses vorhergesagt hat! Perfekt, nie mehr ohne! -- Veithzta, 2014-12-25 [View all Scope Nights Astronomy Weather reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Scope Nights Astronomy Weather Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | United Kingdom | Weather | #11 | | Top Paid | Ireland | Weather | #16 | | Top Paid | Vietnam | Weather | #24 | | Top Paid | Malaysia | Weather | #28 | | Top Paid | Hungary | Weather | #32 | | Top Paid | Egypt | Weather | #32 | | Top Paid | Romania | Weather | #33 | | Top Paid | Israel | Weather | #34 | | Top Paid | Poland | Weather | #38 | | Top Paid | Spain | Weather | #38 | | Top Paid | Finland | Weather | #41 | | Top Paid | Kuwait | Weather | #42 | | Top Paid | Ukraine | Weather | #43 | | Top Paid | India | Weather | #44 | | Top Paid | New Zealand | Weather | #44 | | Top Paid | Singapore | Weather | #44 | | Top Paid | Türkiye | Weather | #45 | | Top Paid | Hong Kong SAR China | Weather | #45 | | Top Paid | Denmark | Weather | #46 | | Top Paid | South Korea | Weather | #47 | | Top Paid | Sweden | Weather | #47 | | Top Paid | Pakistan | Weather | #48 | | Top Paid | Belgium | Weather | #52 | | Top Paid | Peru | Weather | #52 | | Top Paid | Netherlands | Weather | #52 | | Top Paid | Australia | Weather | #52 | | Top Paid | South Africa | Weather | #53 | | Top Paid | Canada | Weather | #53 | | Top Paid | United Arab Emirates | Weather | #56 | | Top Paid | Saudi Arabia | Weather | #57 | | Top Paid | Greece | Weather | #57 | | Top Paid | Philippines | Weather | #58 | | Top Paid | Indonesia | Weather | #58 | | Top Paid | Austria | Weather | #60 | | Top Paid | Mexico | Weather | #60 | | Top Paid | Portugal | Weather | #60 | | Top Paid | Belarus | Weather | #61 | | Top Paid | Chile | Weather | #63 | | Top Paid | Thailand | Weather | #63 | | Top Paid | Lebanon | Weather | #66 | | Top Paid | Germany | Weather | #67 | | Top Paid | Russia | Weather | #68 | | Top Paid | Switzerland | Weather | #69 | | Top Paid | Taiwan | Weather | #69 | | Top Paid | Ecuador | Weather | #70 | | Top Paid | Argentina | Weather | #71 | | Top Paid | Japan | Weather | #74 | | Top Paid | Czechia | Weather | #75 | | Top Paid | China | Weather | #77 | | Top Paid | France | Weather | #77 | | Top Paid | Colombia | Weather | #78 | | Top Paid | Brazil | Weather | #79 | | Top Paid | Norway | Weather | #80 | | Top Paid | Italy | Weather | #84 | | Top Paid | United States | Weather | #88 | ## Apps Similar to Scope Nights Astronomy Weather -
