Does not work

Villhapengarnatillbaka on

Nicke graphics but worked for one night as free version. This one does not work. Shows the wrong sky, off on the longitude/latitude by 45 degrees and no way to correct.

Good

Very good and easy to use but sadly I can’t get the widget to work at all. iPhone 13 with iOS 15.4.

Auto-location

No update in a year

IronGuySwe on

Dear SkyView, It’s been a privilege to use this app, but now it’s aged, missing iOS 14 functions like the new widgets, and Siri Shortcuts etc. Thank you and goodbye, I will move on to one of the competitors. Best wishes IronGuy from Sweden
