Comments on Planet's Position for Android

★★★★★ Ghryst VanGhod · Mar 19, 2016

Great simple app with facts not fancy time-wasting pictures To the fools saying "Pluto is not a planet" neither is the sun nor the moon. #LogicBitches

★★★★☆ Jimbo · Aug 19, 2012

★★★★★ William · Aug 23, 2012

High on the smack This app is on the holy crack of awesome. I would let it marry my daughter. Thank you devvie person(s)

★★★★★ Nick Tsakonas · Jun 4, 2023

This is the app I was looking for quite some time. A perfect companion when not using a goto telescope and do no want to carry a laptop to run Tellurium. It is exactly as I wanted it, no AR graphics and animation and star art.just show me where a planet is at the moment so that I can point my telescope. Perfect! Simple and to the point.

★★☆☆☆ A Google User · Mar 8, 2014

Doesn't work. Open it & that's the end of the action. Nothing to key on. What a bum deal.

★★☆☆☆ A Google user · Aug 10, 2018

The older version was better no daylight savings time adjustment

★☆☆☆☆ Steve Southam · Sep 21, 2025

Inaccurate and unreliable. Nice idea but needs better mathematics.

★★☆☆☆ Shreedhar Kulkarni · Apr 16, 2018

Something wrong in the latest version. Indian standard time is GMT+5:30 and not just 5. The time correction can't be edited. Secondly, the times shown here are not local. They are according to GMT. Kindly rectify.
