This is an amazingly intuitive piece of art, educational tool especially for our grandchildren. Please keep it coming.

I’ve enjoyed using the app for a few years and would like to make a suggestion. Please consider adding the option to filter out distant objects, leaving only those that are visible to the unaided eye. Thank you!

Works greet at home but not abroad

A Girl is Bored on

Canada

It’s a good and quick goto app for night photography to quickly find what’s in the sky and where …. While I’m anywhere in Canada. Right now I’m in Iceland and looking at the moon which this is says is off to my left somewhere. I’ve made sure my location is updated but it’s still wrong, so only a 3-star rating

What’s going on?

Dj Daddy Cool on

Canada

Totally off now! Not used for a while but king of 180° off!

Firstly I loved it but, today..

Z Angrazy Jatt on

Canada

I paid for real fun but today I’m feeling upset , the moon is at front of me but this app is finding it only if I move my phone almost 30% to the left from the actual position of moon. No any location service or internet data issue. So was I always wrong while looking in the sky and thinking this app is telling me right information about the shining things in the sky ?
