SkySafari 7 Pro

Astronomy Guide To Night Sky

Published by: Simulation Curriculum

Description

SkySafari makes stargazing a simple pleasure. It has the largest database of any astronomy app, includes every comet, asteroid, satellite & solar system object ever discovered, offers unparalleled accuracy, advanced planning and logging tools, flawless telescope control, and provides the very best experience under the stars when you depend on it. Don’t postpone joy. Discover why SkySafari is the #1 recommended astronomy app for serious amateur astronomers since 2009.
Here's what’s new in version 7:
+ Complete support for iOS 18 and iPhone 16. Version 7 brings a new and immersive stargazing experience.
+ Events Finder - go to the new Events section to unlock a powerful search engine that finds astronomical events visible tonight and far into the future. The finder dynamically generates a listing of moon phases, eclipses, planetary moon events, meteor showers and planetary phenomenon such as conjunctions, elongations and oppositions.
+ Notifications - the notifications section has been completely revamped to allow you to customize and manage which events trigger an alert notification on your device.
+ Telescope Support - telescope control is at the heart of SkySafari. Version 7 takes a giant leap forward by supporting ASCOM Alpaca, INDI & StarSense Explorer. These next generation control protocols allow you to effortlessly connect to hundreds of compatible astronomical devices.
SkySafari 7 brings social stargazing to mobile devices with two new features to help you connect with other like minded people.
OneSky - allows you to see what other users are observing, in real time. This feature highlights objects in the sky chart and indicates with a number how many users are observing a particular object.
SkyCast - allows you to guide a friend or group around the night sky through their own copy of SkySafari. After initiating SkyCast, you can generate a link and conveniently share it with other SkySafari users via text message, apps or social media accounts.
+ Sky Tonight - jump to the new Tonight section to see what’s visible in your sky tonight. Expanded information has been designed to help plan your night and includes Moon & Sun info, calendar curations, events and the best positioned deep sky and solar system objects.
+ Improved Observation Tools - SkySafari is the perfect tool to help you plan, record and organize your observations. New workflows make it easier to add, search, filter and sort data.
+ Home Screen and Lock Screen Widgets keep your favorite astro information at your fingertips.
The Small Touches:
+ You can now edit the Jupiter GRS Longitude Value in the Settings.
+ Better Moon Age calculation.
+ New grid & reference options allow you to display Solstice and Equinox markers, Orbit + Node markers for all solar system objects, and tick marks and labels for the Ecliptic, Meridian, and Equator reference lines.
+ Previous In-app Purchases are Now Free - this includes the H-R diagram, 3D Galaxy view, and the PGC galaxy and GAIA star catalogs. Enjoy.
+ Many more.
If you haven't used SkySafari 7 Pro before, here's what you can do with it:
+ Hold your device up, and SkySafari 7 Pro will find stars, constellations, planets, and more!
+ Simulate the night sky up to 5MM years in the past or future! Animate meteor showers, conjunctions, eclipses, and other celestial events.
+ Control your telescope, log and plan your observations.
+ Optionally backup all of your observing data in our secure cloud storage and make it easily accessible to multiple devices as well as from our new web interface, LiveSky.com.
+ Augmented Reality (AR) mode
+ Night Vision.
+ Orbit Mode. Leave the Earth’s surface behind, and fly through our solar system.
+ Galaxy View shows the position of deep sky objects in our Milky Way!

SkySafari 7 Pro Reviews

Great concept but a few unacceptable bugs

Thinking Mind on

United Kingdom

App display is great, and integration with telescope control is good, doesn’t have the mosaic planning functionality and observation planning is pretty basic. Major bug is the widgets, information about sunrise and sunset are about 1 hours different than reality.

Company Adds Permanent On-Screen Ads

.Psamathe on

United Kingdom

When you pay top price for everything they then think they can add permanent icons always on-screen to try and sell you more features. No option to say "no thanks" - it's there taking screen space until you pay-up (even though you've already paid the high purchase price for the app). Company that behaves like that should be avoided at all costs - there are excellent alternatives.

Crashes too often

villaboy's dad on

United Kingdom

It’s a good app …. When it works! I have this on 2 devices and it’s great for a while then it stops working properly. Done it on both iPads. Delete, reinstall and off we go again. Same with the original SkySafari. Shame really.

Very good BUT

bill2348 on

United Kingdom

I have Sky Safari Pro but there does not seem anyway that I can set it to show Meteor Showers. Even the most simple free programs are capable of this. Or am I doing something wrong?

Overall, first class albeit suffering one minor bug…

Sit Back and Enjoy… on

United Kingdom

The only minor bug which is that the programme sometimes fails to save any update of the minor body and satellite orbits in the Solar System section. Other than that, no issues.

Menu bars in the centre of the screen

Recenziometr on

United Kingdom

Can you remove the menu bars appearing in the centre of the screen please? This app looks like is not fully compatible with iOS and I regret that I paid full price por it...

Sky Conditions Setting

tweeb300 on

United Kingdom

Doesn't seem to implement a daytime sky condition when you select the option in Settings?? Upgraded from Plus to Pro recently everything else seems to be as expected.

A step backward from SkySafari6

el turq on

United Kingdom

It’s still a wonderful app. But SS6 is better: more straightforward and configurable interface for one.

Field of view (FOV)

Banny Woo on

United Kingdom

If this version add a FOV same as Pro 5 version to display the dimensions for different camera coms size would be more useful. I need to change to Pro 5 version to measure the angle of view each time. Best wishes.

Good but…

DaleWV on

United Kingdom

Do not buy. The serious bug mentioned below has still not been fixed and has potential to break your kit. Got to say in many ways I love this app. I find it intuitive and fairly easy to use but! There is a serious bug, reported by a number of users, that has not been resolved after many months. If, while using the motion controls, your finger moves on the control touch area the button locks and your scope keeps on going. This can be annoying at the least during alignment and potentially can result the scope crashing into the mount. Support say that it will be fixed in the next release but will not indicate when that release will arrive. Until it does stay clear.
