Comments on Polar Clock for Android

★★★★★ Andrew Barnett · Sep 9, 2021

Great app. The polar clock shows exactly the same image and scale as my new Sky watcher polar alignment scope. GPS and sidereal time are accurate. Makes polar alignment simple.

★★★★★ Rich Stevenson · Jun 2, 2022

I see others commented about rotating the reticle. I see the setting for how precise this happens, but I can't figure out how to rotate it? Update: Just figured it out. Good use 2 fingers and rotate. Perfect!

★★★★★ Grant Martin · Sep 18, 2021

Nice tool with a no frills display of the basic time, location, and polaris references for astronomy.

★☆☆☆☆ Michael Howard · Apr 28, 2023

Does not work. Cross-hair on scope does not move. Tried to set hemisphere manually, also used static position but still no response. I'm located in Southern Hemisphere (Sydney).

★★☆☆☆ D W · Jun 29, 2022

The display on this app appears to be in error. Polaris is located approximately between Cassiopeia and the Big Dipper. The Celestial pole is also. And Polaris is shifted away from the Celestial pole by about .7 degrees. However, Polaris is shifted towards Cassiopeia - not towards the Big Dipper - which is the way this app displays it.

★★☆☆☆ Matt Stone · Apr 23, 2025

The app seems promising but the reticle never moves for me so function is limited to none. Running on a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra in the Northern Hemisphere. Other similar apps seem to work without issue.
