You don't need to be an astronomer to find stars or constellations in the sky, just open SkyView® Lite and let it guide you to their location and identify them. SkyView® Lite is a beautiful and intuitive stargazing app that uses your camera to precisely spot and identify celestial objects in sky, day or night. Find your favorite constellations as they fade in and out while you scan across the sky, locate the Moon, discover distant galaxies, and witness satellite fly-bys.

Features:

• Simple: Point your device at the sky to identify galaxies, stars, constellations and satellites (including the ISS and Hubble) passing overhead at your location.
• Sightings: set reminders for celestial events and plan an evening stargazing & spotting satellites.
• Augmented Reality (AR): Use your camera to spot objects in the sky, day or night.
• Sky Paths: Follow the daily sky tracks for the Sun and Moon to see their exact locations in the sky on any date & time.
• Time Travel: Jump to the future or the past and see the sky on different dates and times.
• Social: Capture and share beautiful images with friends and family on social networks.
• Mobile: WiFi is NOT required (does not require a data signal or GPS to function). Take it camping, boating, or even flying!
• Supports Space Navigator™ binoculars, spotting scope, and telescopes.

What a fun way to teach yourself, your children, your students, or your friends about our wonderful universe!

Verry good app and verry accurate

Next open, camera blocked on North

The users1 on

At first install after opening the app, all looked awesome. Next day after reopen, the camera was blocked on North. Tried to calibrate and recalibrate, delete and reinstall the app and still blocked on North…

Awesome app

It worked really nice for me a few years ago, as for an amateur noob stargazer. Now, after many years it still teaches me a lot. I kindly recommend it, it's the best you can get for free! Thank you, Sky View 🙏

Good app

Kitaro74 on

Overall it’s a good app. Several improvments can be made: - after you set the size of planets to minimum, if you close the app and open after some time, the size of planets are big again - size of moon is not affected by the slider change and sometimes is to big, especially when planets trajectory is too close to the moon - when you calibrate the skyview half of the screen is is not visible and is dificult to calibrate manual Maybe in the future updates those problems i mention will be fixed.

Love it!

Destul de precisă, chiar și fără gps

Gabor Vlad on

Bună pentru orientare, are câteva funcții care nu le mai găsești în alte aplicații. Merită încercată.

SkyView Review

Dobre Cristian on

a pretty good app, almost perfect. Why i say " almost perfect "? Well.. that's because it's accurate but not 100%

Excellent for beginners

dumiiiiii on

Really awesome app if you want an intro to astronomy. Working with the gps while no location services available is one of the features I've enjoyed so far. Precision is more than enough if you remember that it's a free app after all. Plus you can track satellites in real time. Which is cool :)

Great app, must have for star fans!
