Description
🔭 Point your phone at the sky and it tells you what you are looking at
Hold your phone up. Stargazing Map draws the patch of sky your camera is facing — the real stars, in their real positions, for exactly where you are standing and exactly the time it is now. Move the phone and the sky moves with it.
⭐ WHAT IS UP THERE
• 8,922 stars — everything visible to the naked eye, down to magnitude 6.5 • All 88 constellations, with the joining lines that make the shapes readable • 109 Messier objects — the Andromeda Galaxy, the Orion Nebula, the Pleiades • The Sun, the Moon and all seven planets, computed live rather than looked up • The Moon drawn at its true phase, with the lit side facing the real Sun • Deep-sky objects drawn at their true size — Andromeda really is six full moons wide, and the app shows it that way
👆 TAP ANYTHING TO IDENTIFY IT
Touch a star and it tells you what it is: name, constellation, spectral type, how bright it is in plain words rather than a number, and when it rises, peaks and sets tonight. Tap a planet and you get its distance in light-minutes and how much of its disc is lit.
🔍 SEARCH, THEN BE POINTED AT IT
Look up Saturn, Vega, M31 or any of 440 named stars. The result tells you straight away whether it is above the horizon and which way to face. Tap "Point me at it" and an arrow leads you there, counting down the degrees as you turn.
🕐 TRAVEL IN TIME
Wind the clock forward and backward to see how the sky turns, or jump straight to the end of astronomical twilight — the moment it gets properly dark tonight at your location. Useful for working out whether a planet will clear the rooftops before midnight.
🌙 RED NIGHT MODE
Your eyes take twenty minutes to adapt to darkness and one bright screen undoes all of it. Night mode draws everything in dim red, which preserves that adaptation the way an observatory torch does. Switch to the standard theme when you are planning indoors.
📴 WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE
The entire star catalogue is built into the app. Nothing is downloaded, nothing is fetched while you use it, and it works identically with the phone in aeroplane mode. That matters, because the best places to stargaze are the places with no signal.
🙅 NO ACCOUNT, NO SIGN-UP
Open it and look up. There is no login, no email, no profile, and nothing to create.
📍 ABOUT LOCATION
The stars above Delhi are not the stars above London, so the app needs a rough idea of where you are. It asks only for **approximate** location — never precise — because moving a few kilometres changes the sky by less than the width of a hair. Your position is used on your phone and never sent anywhere. If you would rather not share it at all, pick a city from the list or type coordinates; the app works exactly the same.
🧭 ABOUT THE COMPASS
Phone compasses drift, especially near metal, a car, or a laptop. If the sky looks rotated, wave the phone in a figure of eight and it will re-calibrate. The app watches the compass quality and tells you when this is needed rather than letting you wonder why nothing lines up. Phones without a magnetometer can drag to look around instead.
🧩 HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS
Uranus is at the edge of naked-eye visibility and Neptune beyond it — both are drawn, but you will need binoculars. A live camera view behind the stars is planned but not in this release.
🔒 PRIVACY
No account, no personal information. Your location never leaves your phone. The app sends anonymous usage statistics and crash reports — the only thing that leaves your device, and it contains no location and no object names.
