Duran Duran's keyboard Nick Rhodes mentions Star Walk as his favourite app:
“It’s brilliant, and if you’re ever somewhere with a clear sky and no light pollution, it’s a revelation. It’s beautifully designed and makes clever use of the available technology. I’m fascinated by astronomy, but even if you’re not, give this a go.”

Keeps crashing

Veggies r good for u on

New Zealand

Could be great - unfortunately even with the PAID version it keeps crashing and logging me out. Bummer.

Display of night sky

jeadu4 on

New Zealand

Names of stars and other objects too small, faint and insignificant . VERY DISAPPOINTED with present version compared with past one(s) which I would have rated 5 stars.

Love it

Fantastic app in every way. EXCEPT still sends pics and a notification which have to be cleared. 1 star rating until you guys stop sending pics at us. We will look if we're interested, trust me.
