False information
At first I pointed to sky and the app told me I was seeing everything , I was like wow but I looked into sky myself and didn’t see it, then the bad part , as I pointed my phone towards my yard it said my flower was a space Hubble and my yard was a galaxy so with that being said oh then I came inside and all of a sudden I had the whole galaxy in my room, lol. Well this app absolutely does not work! Sorry but no good.
Fake
It said the moon was below us even tho it was nighttime.
Hard to believe this app is free!
I’ve used this app only a handful of times, and I have been very satisfied. Looking up the the night sky I wonder “what is that?” This is the detention of “there’s an app for that!” I’ve been able to identify star patterns, planets, everything! Although not 100% accurate, it gives me enough of an idea where stars and planets are. 5/5 VERY Satisfied!
App doesn’t work
I have been trying to get this app to work, and it just doesn’t work. You can’t point it at different things you see in the sky. .
Best app EVER
Okay out of all the stargazing apps I have tried this takes top cake. It is AMAZING! And the fact you don’t get ads OR popups like whaaat? It’s too good I’ve been sharing the app with everyone I know even my teacher. Can’t recommend this app enough! Never been able to get that music function working but it’s still amazing without it!!
The alignment was way off
After a while the alignment of the planets were not even close to the target circle. I have an older iphone with version 15…. Cannot update past that IOS. So I deleted the app thinking if I downloaded it again it would correct the problem. Now the only version available has to have iOS 16. So I had to just dump it. As the only version available is not compatible. Used to use it in elementary science class. Kinda sad but will look for another app.
Hard to read
Love the app, but why is it so hard to read the names of the objects? The font is very small, and it has poor contrast against most backgrounds in augmented reality mode. It is really virtually illegible most of the time. It seems like it would be an easy fix to just make the font somewhat larger and add some color contrast behind the typeface. If the app developers are listening, pretty please?
Ok maybe...
First off I'm not trying to give bad advice. This game is a little off. The moon is sometimes full when it's not I can't find all the constellations I spent hours and hours just looking around whom ever says it's not fun is wrong. It's a very fun game maybe not 100% accurate Jupiter and the moon right next to each other! Haha but I would suggest this game. He just want baby Naruto for accuracy game, but just to look around this solar system.
Directions are flip-flopped
I’ve been having problems with this app with the Compass not working correctly Any ideas would be greatly appreciate it.
