    Lots of pictures that other people have taken, but none that you will be able to take yourselves. It does not identify anything worth looking at in the sky and it’s really just all a bunch of fluff.
  • Nothing is free and this one is false promise and a waist of time

    This app was supposed to show us for free where comment is, but instead we just ask for subscription and had 3min long add for that stupid King candy crush game. . Everyone involved should be ashamed of luring kids and families into such a scam. . Best to be SoS
  • Most Stunning Imagery APP!

    I’m still new to this app, but I must say so far it has some of the most beautiful imagery representing the various constellations, etc. that I’ve seen in an app. The only negative experience is at first launch, there is atmospheric music playing With no button to mute it. (not everyone will open an app where sound is… welcome). Not a huge deal, you can turn it off in settings. But still…
  • Ugh! Ads!! Really?

    It’s beautiful! I’ve missed it for a long while. The first agent couldn’t figure it out. Today the man I spoke with this evening knew exactly what to do. He was very very good!!
  • What on earth happened?!

    I mistakenly reviewed this thinking it was StarWalk 2 PRO, not “plus”. I assumed a change in business model ripped me off yet again, but it turns out this is very separate from the normal starwalk format. This has a subscription service… with ads. This causes a lot of internal web-requests and lag and just runs far less stable than any other StarWalk. I had way more respect for these developers before they made the worlds worst sequel
