Disappointed

Riotriotriotriot on

Supported the app for years, bought all the upgrades. But to see a comet you need to download a separate app. 🙄

Prima app

Eric Dinkla on

Deze app doet precies wat het moet doen

Visible tonight seem to be broken

---n-o-n-e-- on

Hi great app, just with the latest IOS update om my iPhone 11 Pro doesn’t seem to load the visible tonight section

Nice, but could be better

JSZippy on

The app is visually great, but I would really like an option to turn off all animations and have the constellation "stick" drawings appear for *all* constellations, not just the one you're pointing at. I find it harder to orient myself when these visual clues are missing (I'm an intermediate/advanced user).

Zoals vroegah

Mooie app brengt me terug maar de tijd dat ik met mijn vader in het gras lag, de sterren te bewonderen😊

Mooi progamma

Zoeken wat je in de nacht ziet Meldingen over samenstanden of kometen

Hemels mooi

Wat een leuke app hoor ik van anderen

Looks great, but copies your clipboard

zentient on

This app is beautiful and could be useful, but… • It should be clear before purchase just which information on which bodies and satellites is available. • Furthermore, it’s now obvious that on the iPhone, the app is copying what’s in the phone clipboard as soon as you open or switch to the app. For what purpose you have to ask? This is very bad practice and unnecessary.

notifications cannot be turned of. asking for help with this issue i‘m told to contact apple.

Top en tip

H0fman on

Mooie app met info en illustraties. 1 tip: De grote 3D illustraties zijn zo dominant dat de sterren die erachter liggen nauwelijks zichtbaar zijn. Met in en uitzoomen volgt een andere 3D illustratie. Dat is erg irritant als je een specifieke ster of planeet zoekt.
