Great!

I’ve been using SkyView Lite ever since I first found out about SkyView. Every time I open the SkyView Lite I would see this upgrade SkyView thing. I also wanted to be able to find all the planets, but SkyView Lite could not eventually I had some money and spent some on buying SkyView premium. I’m very happy with SkyView premium. It allows me to find satellites as well as bodies for spaceships. I also like using it to track different face objects.

Stopped Working

The app just stopped working. It won’t even launch anymore.

It’s so good, I’d like to gift it

It’s unfortunate but Apple is stopping me from buying more copies. I’d like to gift your app, but Apple only shows me an “Open” button and no way to gift your app. Maybe you can help Apple figure out that their poor interface restricts sales. I have an icon for your app, so showing “Open” in the App Store app, is tiny minds at work. It needs a “Gift this App” button. Otherwise, your app is great and my go to for astronomy. Just wish I could share the fun without Apple interfering. Apple would rather hide the prices than actually accommodate sales. Maybe let them know how bad their UI is, and facilitating sales is far better than oppression. Thanks

So easy and informative

I love SkyView. I say, “Hey Siri, open SkyView,” and boom I’ve got every constellation and planet on my phone with fun facts and options for trajectory. Thanks for a great and affordable app!

Fantastic

This is such a wonderful app for learning astronomy.

Nothing lines up

rhodge1995 on

United States

So, I have tried automatic calibration, automatic location and nothing lines up using the moon as a point of reference. So I set my location manually, did a manual calibration so the actual moon lines up with the image in the app, okay good. Move around looking at various objects, go back to the moon and the actual moon does not line up with the app moon! So frustrating!

used to work

I really liked the app on my iPhone 12. I just upgraded to an iphone 16 and the camera and vidro function no longer function. Help is lacking online.

Love it!

Definitely worth the unlimited subscription. I enjoy learning about the different constellations and stars. Their back story. Etc.

Amazing app-I’ve had it for years & still love it!

ZooMamaZ on

United States

Ever look at the sky & wonder what that bright star in the sky is? Enjoy the idea of exploring the cosmos, on a smooth, attractive, relaxing, very informative app on your phone? Get this app!!! I have literally owned this app for years now, and still regularly use it & enjoy the experience every time. I also love sharing this app with others & they are always amazed & I often have to fight for my phone back! Like I said-I purchased this app years ago, but love it enough to be writing this “glowing” review now. I really like it & think you will too!

No photo

I love the app I use to be able to take photos and now I can’t. I asked why but no response. Taking photos was one of my favorite thing.
