Description

SkySafari is a powerful planetarium that fits in your pocket, puts the universe at your fingertips, and is incredibly easy to use!
Simply hold your device to the sky and quickly locate comets, planets, constellations, satellites, and millions of stars and deep sky objects. Use Augmented Reality (AR) mode to blend a simulated sky chart with a real view of your surroundings. Or toggle on OneSky to see what other observers are looking at right now.
Packed with interactive information and rich graphics, discover why SkySafari is your perfect stargazing companion under the night sky.

Here's what's new in version 7:
+ Complete support for iOS 17 and iPhone 15. Version 7 brings a new and immersive stargazing experience.
+ 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.
+ 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, and the best positioned deep sky and solar system objects.
+ Orbit Mode - Lift off from the Earth and travel to the planets, moons and stars.
+ Guided Audio Tours - Listen to more than four hours of audio narration to learn the history, mythology, and science of the heavens.
+ Galaxy View - Visualize the 3-D location of stars and deep sky objects in our Galaxy the Milky Way.
+ Pronounce - “Yoor-a- nus”, not “Your-anus”? The pronunciation guide in SkySafari will help you learn how to correctly pronounce the names of hundreds of celestial objects from different categories such as stars, constellations and planets.
If you haven't used SkySafari before, here's what you can do with it:
+ Hold your device up, and SkySafari will find stars, constellations, planets, and more! The star chart updates automatically with your real time movements for the ultimate stargazing experience.

I Just bought my first telescope and this app is perfect for what I want.. I downloaded heaps of other apps to try before I buy and found them to be to busy and gave more information than I need. The app seems accurate & is a lot more user friendly than the others plus a lot cheaper... certainly recommend this. Well done to the developers
