Comments on Star Walk - Night Sky Map for Android

★★★★★ Ziad Dnaya · Sep 11, 2024
Cool app, it helped me study more about planets and space objects
★★★★★ Bas Meijer · Oct 11, 2024
Still years after the first release the best app ever made. First time I used it was on an iPhone 3GS... 📱 Owned the iOS version, now on Android. I wished there was no separate Star Walk / Star Walk 2, or it had some other title perhaps, then I could stop wrapping my head around the differences and which I would like the most. 🫣 I just keep using Star Walk, that is good for me. 😊 And also still absolutely loooooove the music! So meditative and spot on for this app! Love you guys + all the best
★☆☆☆☆ Phil N · Nov 7, 2024
oh my every single click on this app gets an ad to watch a video. I am uninstalling immediately. So many ads, and also they ask you to rate this app again with every touch of the screen. Way too much Advertising can only guess trackers and who knows the amount of data harvesting later on to a star looking app that isn't loaded with videos not just ads' no you have to wait for the video to finish. Time is not looking at stars but advertising capitalism at its best
★☆☆☆☆ James M · Jul 19, 2024
This app is an SCAM. I paid for a one time premium purchase several years ago (was offered a one time upgrade to for Star Walk, Star Walk 2 and Sky Tonight). Star Walk app now says premium status inactive & it wants me to subscribe for $4.99 year, I purchased a one time unlock serial years ago for Star Walk and the app won't honor it anymore. There is no "restore" button, no trace of it. Just a "Star Walk Plus" for $4.99 / year. Do yourself a favor and pay for Tellurium Mobile. Vito is a scam.

✦ Use Time Machine to diversify sky observation and explore the sky map of different periods. To do this, tap the clock icon in the top left corner and slide the right edge dial down for the past and up for the future position sky objects.

✦ Identify stars, constellations and planets in the night sky with our mobile observatory. Night mode bathes the interface in a red glow in order to make the sky observation more comfortable for your eyes.

✦ This night sky viewer allows you to change the colour of the display to represent various kinds of radiation: gamma, X-Ray, visible spectrum, Infrared, and Radio, etc. Explore the map of the sky in its various representations.

✦ Star Walk's mobile observatory also gives astronomy facts and daily stats like sunrise and sunset times, visible planets, moon phases and much more. You won't need astronomy books and atlases.

✦ AR stargazing. Enjoy map of the sky, stars and planets in augmented reality. With our star chart app you can merge live footage from your camera with the app’s presentation of the night sky.
