Super god

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not working on iPhone 14Pro

I really like the idea behind this app, but since it doesn’t work on my iPhone 14 Pro, I can only give it 1 star. The stars doesn’t move/update, when I move my phone around in AR-mode, and that kind of makes it useless in my opinion. I have contacted the developer but haven’t received an answer.

inaccurate

+: Quite accurate and very easy to use. Rich in information. Superb in that term. -: The reason I will favorite something is to able to see them in the sky view and not have to constantly go back & forth on the favorites menu. Please add an option to enable showing all my favorites in sky view with maybe a different color/icon.

NEOWISE nowhere to be found..

Been using this app for some years, but with time realised, that current features on the sky are not always updated. Great disappointment to find that it couldn’t find the marvellous comet Neowise on the sky... a missed opportunity to market an otherwise pretty good app...😟

Cool app

Det er en fed og cool app og jo mere leg lærer den at kende jo større bliver min begejstring ,et must for enhver udendørs person som er bare lidt videnbegærlig om det store univers vi er et lille spot i.

Works everywhere.

In need of improvement

Possibly a nice, yet somewhat simplistic star-viewer. However, since it would appear that the only method for navigating around the sky is by accelerometer (i.e. contorting yourself to make the screen point in the actual direction you want to look at), the whole thing is purely useful if you are outside and you only ever want to compare the stars on the screen with those in the actual sky. As for sitting indoors and exploring stars and planets that happen to interest you, it very quickly becomes tiresome, having to point your device in whatever direction your object of interest happen to be. Also, being used to most such apps supporting dragging and zooming the view with your fingers, it is frustrating that nothing happens when you try to do the same here. Such a simple feature, really no sensical reason not to include it? For this glaring omission I deduct two stars (from what would have been a rather generous four-star rating. A five-star rating would certainly require a lot more features and functionality than merely adding touch-support).
