Comments on Star Walk 2 Plus: Sky Map View for Android

★★★★★ Jorge Villalobos (The spacey aviator) · Apr 4, 2026

Its amazing, I use it a lot when im stargazing and looking through my power seeker 127EQ or my solo mark

★★★★★ Samantha Shah · May 13, 2026

This app is one of the best I have ever found for this type of thing. I loved the fact that you pay once for a small amount you get a lifetime access, and I do a lot of star watching and telescope stuff, and I love their calendar it tells me when to look out for the things I need to look out for instead of just randomly seeing it on social media which is what used to happened

★★★★★ Tharindu Sanjaya · Apr 19, 2026

Very impressive app with great graphics and loads of information of stars and constellations. I learned a lot of thanks to this great app.

★★★★★ Jorunn L. Østbø · May 7, 2026

Great App to use when star gazing and when setting up my Electron telescope!

★★☆☆☆ Muhammad Hassim · Apr 17, 2026

Very good app, but I bought all the add-ons individually, and they keep disappearing, even in the settings menu when I delete and reinstall the app it doesn't even show add-ons sometimes, support hasn't

★★☆☆☆ Krista McLennan · May 31, 2026

Watch out, they'll charge you without knowing. I downloaded it for my son and never used my fingerprint to pay for it. My 3yr old does not know my password either so there's no way I should have been charged besides the initial download. It said there was a trial period which I didn't notice until a week or 2 later when I opened it up for him again. I was like ok it'll stop giving him access whenever that is up (like usual) Nope! I noticed they charged me, so careful with your intentions.

★☆☆☆☆ Gary Montante · May 20, 2026

It would not exit. I had to visit Google Play Store to uninstall. Warning - it does not obey exit commands!!!!

★☆☆☆☆ pate Ratutokarua · Apr 22, 2026

Won't work because when I allow location to be on, it just won't let me pass.

★☆☆☆☆ TheDonkeyknee · May 7, 2026

It does not show the direction that I am facing. I know what direction north, east, south and west are. And it does not point in that direction unless I physically move it on the screen. If I press the option in the top left of the screen, it points to not the direction I am facing.
