Comments on PlanetDroid for Android

★★★★★ Raptop · Jun 25, 2012
Decent numeric info Not perfect, but if you're looking for numeric information on sun/moon/planet positions, rise set times, etc., this is the best available.
★★★★★ 23. Sudheesh Singh · Nov 12, 2020
Just love this app.... 👉📱 it's so amazing can tell you location of many stars, planets, comets and many things.... Better for telescope users... 5 star deserving. Helped me a lot of thanks Planet droid
★★★★☆ Kenneth · Jun 23, 2012
Very comprehensive. Some sort of guide to the abbreviations would be appreciated by those of us who are new to this stuff and want to learn.
★★★★☆ Evgeny Fedorischenko · Apr 9, 2016
Equinox error There is a little error in Equinox time calculations. E.g. for 2016 your app shows Equinox time 4:21 for GMT=0, while official data is 4:30. I think your app doesn't take into account Mutations of the vernal equinox and aberrations.
★★★★★ Rodger Bird · Feb 16, 2017
A really nice free app with no ads that provides Sun, Moon and planet information. Using the phone camera to view the night sky makes locating the planets very easy.
★★☆☆☆ Ahmed · Sep 6, 2012
Good But Selecting a saved location other than the 1st doesn't work. Please make it possible to select saved locations from a list. Thank you
★☆☆☆☆ amol zemse · May 4, 2016
Timing never matches Has to be gps enabled time tracker for certain position, would be great. -Amol Z
