Customer Reviews

Fantastic app. (5 stars)
Great for use with telescope. Heartily recommend to any amateur astronomer.

Great free ap! (5 stars)
Works really well! Turns when you do even looking up or down. Tap on stars or planets to learn more about them. Shows orbits, the lines the ancients saw or a more modern image of the constellation. Highly recommended from someone who knows nothing about our night sky!

Nice (5 stars)
I must say that this app is actually much better than expensive apps, in ease of use. It has many great features, not as many as some, but I find myself using this one due to it just being a faster interface than others.
