    So I’ve been waiting to see comet lemon 2025/A6 but the app won’t show you , It’s very disappointing. I looked all over on the app and it doesn’t come up. I even have the paid version. It’s a real disappointment they didn’t add that.

    After purchasing, I realized this app does not show the location of comets, which was is the reason I purchased it. Kind of bummed about that, but the rest of the app is really neat.

  • Doesn’t work with my case on

    Edit: my case was the problem all along. Seems silly that I have to take my case off to use the app all of a sudden, but at least it works! I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling several times. I’ve restarted my phone. I’ve played with the calibration. The app just refuses to work. I’ve had this app forever and it’s always been one of my favorites. My kids and I love finding the planets. Please fix this app so I can update my review!

    This tells you that you'll get all the bells and whistles when it's no different from the lite version, i wasted 5 dollars on this app compared to downloading the free version. Do not waste your money on this just get skyview lite it's the same exact app same displays of planets stars and objects and trajectories of said medium it just doesn't cost you 5 dollars for no reason at all. Very disappointed with my purchase

    Great App! I’ve been using it for several years now and it also became extremely handy during my recent college Physical Science class where we had to take pictures for a seven night moon location lab. One thing that you could add would be to have the azimuth and angle show up when you take a picture from inside the app, otherwise those numbers will only show up via taking a screenshot, which is awkward to do on an iPad.
  • James Webb Space Telescope

    I really wanted to see where the JWST is floating in space but was disappointed to find that it is no yet integrated into the app. Other than that I enjoy anything space related and this app gives me the opportunity to see where the heavenly bodies are!
  • I love this!
