    Ever since i was in 3rd grade ive wanted everything to do with outer space. I’m now 16 and a sophomore in high school, i plan to major in astronomy/physics when i go to college. This app is just super helpful for me to know what i’m looking at in the sky. My astronomy teacher told us to download this app for a future project we will do but i use it pretty much every day. I’m still saving up to buy a telescope or i’m hoping to get one for my birthday this year. I love that you can zoom into the planet and see its moons and a clear image of the planet. I love that all the constellations have pictures!!! it’s a great app i 11/10 recommend for any outer space lovers😄😄😄😄😄

    This app can be helpful for finding planets and identifying bright stars, but sometimes it says I’m pointing my phone towards Ursa Major when I’m sure the constellation is behind me.
  • Very disappointing

    This might have been a good app, but after 23 ads in a row, I deleted it—don’t wast your time here.

    I know my astronomy, and I will spend a hour or so with my three year old grandson perusing the sky and teaching him the names of stars and planets. We decided we would buy a telescope, and let him play on an app (with us) as we located our sky and what feels is just beyond our reach. SURPRISE! We have to pay for everything, even a peek to determine if This App will meet our needs. Nah, no money, no peeks, seems like anyone peddling apps but not wanting them to have a basic look and play time is essentially telling me “NO! You are not our type. Please find another app which will be more upfront and forthcoming with information! We do not let anyone look before they decide if they will be able to use this app. Off with you!” Sooo, now I’m off, without your app! Saved my $$$ and no frustration!
