Winner of Apple Design Award 2010*** “Star Walk is a remarkably in-depth and detailed astronomy app. There's so much you can do with this app” - Common sense media “Star Walk is the best stargazing application I have come across for the iPhone. Many of the features found within the application cannot be found in any others! This is one of the best developed and executed applications I have seen to hit the app store.” - iMore “This app brings the old paper star chart into the smartphone age, and makes exploring the night sky easily accessible to everyone.” - Soggy Astronomer 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.” Key features: • Night sky map with thousands of stars, constellations and other sky objects. • Real-time tracking of celestial bodies. • Augmented reality sky view. • Deep sky objects to explore in detail. • Night mode. • Extensive information about all sky objects. • The ability to travel in time with “Time machine” • Astronomical calendar with various celestial events. • Stunning space pictures in “Picture of the Day”. • “Sky Live” section with info about the moon phases, the amount of daylight, the visibility of the planets, etc. Astronomical calendar, deep space objects, meteor showers, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and satellites are available through the STAR WALK PLUS subscription. ‣ Launch the app and point your device at the night sky - you'll see the stars, planets, satellites, and constellations in their proper place from your location. As you move your device, the star map updates in real time.* ‣ Every object you tap has an (i) next to its name, tap it to access some information. ‣ A scale on right is the “Time machine”, slide it to explore the map of the night sky of tomorrow or years ago. ‣ A calendar of celestial events will make sure you never miss anything interesting. ‣ Tap Augmented Reality icon in the upper right corner to add the image from your camera to your sky view. ‣ Use Night Mode to go easy on your eyes and preserve night vision when exploring the Universe. ‣ Star Walk is your personal planetarium.

    Been using this for almost two decades now. I’ve paid for premium features only for them to disappear and go behind a paywall. Will delete it, I’ve paid my dues. Let me use the application. I’m deleting it.

    Update…developer’s responded by saying the ‘ad frequency is exaggerated’ ….I assure you it is not. *points phone at sky….ad….find what I was looking at before, zoom in….ad….goes back to where I was….ad…..goes back again, zoom…..ad…..* so no..not exaggerated at all. Ads every 5 seconds
  • Something change?

    I was kinda blown away searching for every possible designation for Proxima Centauri and no result. Don’t remember having these issues before.

    The star titled Nu Serpentis in Ophiuchus should be called Nu Ophiuchi. In Star Walk, Star Walk 2, Sky Tonight, and Solar Walk 2, can you please fix that? Again it’s the star Nu Serpentis in Ophiuchus to Nu Ophiuchi.
