Comments on SkyView® Explore the Universe for Android
★★★★★David Lee· Dec 7, 2025
Very useful app for a star gazing enthusiast like me. I love to look at the night sky and try to decipher the mystery of the stars and the constellations, which I know almost nothing about, other than the major ones such as the dippers and the Venus. Now using this app, I can just point and recognize. Tonight I was able to find the Jupiter and knew what it was for certain. This app makes walking underneath the night sky that much more exciting.

Love this app, but it would make it so much cooler if they added the art 2 rocket that's touring the moon right meow and elons satellites and rockets
★★★★★Tim Kraus Sr· Apr 23, 2026

The app is stuck on one position on this device. I can't view anything. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but it still persists yet am on the paid version. Kindly assist.

Ive had this app for many years now, and I paid for the full version so kept it despite it being completely off in calibration and nothing would change it, thought it was my phone, but got a new one, reinstalled the app and It's still completely off in exactly the same way. Face my camera at the moon and the app shows that its like 40 degrees to the left. Completely pointless and useless app. If they fix it, would be 5 stars easy
