SKY TONIGHT is a brand-new astronomical app for exploring the sky. It helps stargazers answer the three most common questions:
⁕ What is that bright dot in the sky?
⁕ What astronomical events can I see tonight?
⁕ How can I find the object I'm interested in?
Made by the developers of Star Walk apps, Sky Tonight is a customizable stargazing tool, that is designed for users with different needs and wants. You can adjust the constellation's appearance, set a reminder for any space body configuration, explore the unique relative to observer trajectory, set up a magnitude limit to filter out space objects, and much more.
SKY TONIGHT FEATURES:
► Point your device at the sky to see the real-time positions of space objects on the interactive sky map.
► Activate the Time Machine and determine the position of celestial bodies at different time periods.
► Use the augmented reality mode and see the sky map overlaid on the image from your device's camera.
► Get extended information about any sky object by tapping on its name.
► Stay updated on the latest news from the world of astronomy with the What's new section.
► Turn on the night mode to make your sky observation in the nighttime more comfortable.
► Filter the objects that appear on the sky map according to their visual brightness.
► Regulate the brightness of objects on the sky map.
► Spot dozens of asterisms along with the official constellations.
► Adjust the visible constellations and customize their representation on the screen.
UNIQUE FEATURES:
◆ INTERACTIVE TRAJECTORIES RELATIVE TO AN OBSERVER
Instead of the classic trajectory that shows the object’s trajectory in the celestial sphere relative to the Earth’s center, the app presents the object’s trajectory in the sky relative to an observer. A long touch on the trajectories relative to the observer will move the sky object to the selected point. While holding the touch, move your finger along the trajectory to change the time.
◆ FLEXIBLE SEARCH
Make use of the flexible search — quickly find space objects, easily navigate across different objects and events’ types. Look for "stars", "mars moons", "mars conjunctions", "solar eclipse", and the app will show you all related objects, events, and articles!
There are also Trending and Recent categories in the search section. The first one presents the currently most popular objects, events, or news; the second category contains objects you recently selected.
◆ FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE EVENT REMINDERS
Set event reminders on any time and date not to miss a solar eclipse, a Full Moon, or a star-planet configuration you're interested in.
◆ ASTRONOMY CALENDAR WITH A STARGAZING INDEX AND WEATHER FORECAST
Check out the calendar of celestial events that includes lunar phases, meteor showers, eclipses, oppositions, conjunctions, and other exciting events. Learn what astronomy events will occur this month or see what happened in the sky a year ago!
Verify the Stargazing Index calculated from a Moon phase, light pollution, cloudiness, and time when an object is visible. The higher this index is, the better the observation conditions are.
You don’t need several apps for your stargazing planning anymore; Sky Tonight contains all the info you need.
Premium Access:
* The app includes paid Premium Access. Get Premium Access to use Sky Tonight with no limits! Without the subscription, you can’t see most of the interface items in various sections such as Visible Tonight, Calendar, and Search. Therefore, you’re limited in planning and improving your observations. Premium Access will allow you to unlock all the interface items in any view and make the most of all the app’s features. Advertisements will also be removed not to interrupt your stargazing experience.

I have Starwalk2. I thought this would be a great augmentation to Starwalk2 that I did pay for. This is not a free app and I don’t expect apps to be free, BUT I do expect to be able to have a decent evaluation period before I decide to pay for apps. This app looked great, but within the couple of minutes of launching, I had to sit through three adds - two of which were the exact same. No thanks…. I don’t have patience for that.
Deleted immediately.
Auto renewing sub? No thank you.
I have star walk 2 and its a great app. I paid for lifetime sub because it was worth it to me. I would consider it for this app, if reasonably priced. But a monthly or yearly renewal fee? No thank you. I’ll keep using starwalk 2, even if some of the features aren’t the same. Consequently, I deleted the app from my iphone. Too bad really, looked like it might have been useful.
Cool
It is so realistic the only downside is that you have to pay for most of the planets
Loaded with commercials .. uninstalled
Whilst I understand commercials within an app if it’s free .. this is so ridiculously loaded with commercials it’s too much
Complet et complexe
Nous sommes à la veille de l’éclipse et je suis content de pouvoir cibler où sera la comète Pons
A great learning tool
I have found that this app is very helpful for me to get a good sense of what I see in the outer space. Thank you whoever is responsible for this app.
Sky tonight
It’s five stars I really like this app and I can see you wearing a whole bunch of it. Events are going on when it’s all cloudy. This is a really good app.
Out of This World.
Downloaded recently and am still getting used to the settings , can’t find my Northward location to be able to point skyward and find what it is that I’m pointing at . Has a lot of great features to learn about and I’m sure anyone interested in the solar system would be amazed by this app. 🔭
Sad choice lunch your program.
This might be good but program lunch a game in middle. What? Why? Developer create an app that has good chance at becoming great kill chances.
