REVIEWS:

"Sanderson - I have dabbled with astronomy for 30 years, star maps, celestial co-ordinates, Patrick moores year book but this app renders them all obsolete. It makes locating stars and planets Childs play!"

"I am amazed! - I love this app! It does exactly as promised. Got a telescope for Christmas and hated not know what I was looking at or where to find what I wanted to look at. This app made stargazing a million times better for me and my kids!"

"I was thrilled when the cross hairs appeared on screen and Guided me to the planet that I had selected from the list. And that was only the free app!I highly recommend this app for anyone who is curious about the stars above. Well worth the purchase I say."

"Tech at it's best! - Awesome program. Any astronomer knows the computational power needed for these algorithms. And the iPhone sensors are up to the task. Unique. Buy it."

Planet finder

I am a rank amateur at Astronomy but find this AAP highly informative and accurate to my knowledge. I can now appear as a highly trained individual to my Grandkids who also enjoy Planet Finder.

Great App!!

Gives augmented positioning of the planets! Makes it great to teach my kids! Love this app!

Great

It is so cool

Amazing!

I have used this throughout my astronomy journey. It is accurate I sometimes I can see the planets in the sky! This app inspires me to do more astronomy research :)

It’s a really good app to have...

It’s a really good app to have to get an appreciation of the night sky. It would be more helpful it it would switch to landscape view than stay in vertical portrait view. I await being corrected.

Very Useful

My only minor quibble, is that when two planets are pin pricks in the sky, and say 10 degrees apart. The display will show overlapping discs. But I doubt that this can be improved with current technology. Extremely useable, and very educational.

Accurate

Accurate, almost aligns to the planets.

So good

So good I go out side almost every night to spot planets.All I do when I need help is go on the app and I easily spot lots more planets.I recommend this app for astronomy lovers!!!

Needs to be updated for iOS12

Keeps crashing after updating to iOS12. Otherwise great App.
