Was amazing, but sadly I can't download on android anymore. Regrettably having to sift through inferior apps for a replacement.

The orientation feature works well, but that's all it will do now. There's no toolbar, and I can't see the different sun and moon phases.

It was off just a little bit when you're looking at the sky, but right now I can't get it to come off of North. It will not reorient. The only way to look around right now, is to do it manually. I uninstalled and reinstalled but it made no difference.

I freaking love this app, been using it for years to see what star or planet I'm staring at. I do hope the quality can still be improved! 🪐

I couldn't open the app after installing. I got a message saying the app had a bug and to try again after developer has fixed it.
★☆☆☆☆Hayden Thompson· Sep 24, 2022
Couldn't even open it because it's not compatible with newer versions of android. Please update
★☆☆☆☆Roy Lloyd· Oct 2, 2026
Doesn't work, keeps crashing. Pity, on older phones years ago, this used to be brilliant
★★☆☆☆Andy Ray· Feb 27, 2025
Very detailed, but you cannot hold your phone on the planet as the location is 360 degrees out on what you are looking at. There must be a reason as most apps have the same fault.
