Comments on Planets for Android

★★★★★ Alan Ridley · Sep 20, 2025

I have had this app for years on my ipad and iPhone X and it works flawlessly. Many friends have downloaded the app also after seeing mine in action. The app used to work well also on my Samsung S20+ but with my current Samsung S24+ after I download the app. It will not open. It tries briefly and instantly closes

★★★★★ Jonathan Fisher · Nov 27, 2024

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.

★★★★☆ Mike Stadtmiller · Apr 26, 2026

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.

★★★★★ Just a frog Passing by · Nov 26, 2024

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! 🪐

★★☆☆☆ 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.

★☆☆☆☆ Hayden Thompson · Sep 24, 2022

Couldn't even open it because it's not compatible with newer versions of android. Please update

★☆☆☆☆ Gary Capelin · Feb 5, 2025

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.
