One word: Awesome

I have taken this app for granted for years if not a decade or more. In my (albeit limited) experience, this app is unparalleled. It is simple, functional, and accurate. The VR is spot on. I hold my phone up and look up in the sky (or below the horizon) and I get very clear constellations, planets, etc.
Thank you Planets for not charging us charter users. :)

So Cool,

Came free on first iPhone, and have made sure itโ€™s always with me, for someone who spends allot of time fishing at night, this has helped make memories even better!

Also itโ€™s never failed to help answer questions, lots of people have seen the app bottom and those who opened and explored it, they know itโ€™s the coolest free app ever created!

Awesome! ๐Ÿ˜

I absolutely love this app. i use it to find planets in the sky when i see a really bright dot and want to know if itโ€™s just a planet or a star. i use it for watching how the planets spin to, i also use it to find the moon and iโ€™m going to be using it to find the moon and planets when i set up my telescope. if you are wanting an app to find planets and watch how they spin, this is the app for you. itโ€™s completely free and me if the best planet apps ever

Great eye candy

During my summer camping trips i get near perfect skies, far away from city light polution. Every night I lay on a beach chair with binoculars and gaze. Repeatedly, I found matching the aps constellations to what I see quasi impossible. It is likely my user error, but, this has been my repeated experience.

Wow! What a great product. Easy & useful

Excellent balance. I love the intuitive fast adjustment of date location or auto-date and auto-location. Snap fast and a child could figure it out. Yes! Bonus entertainment in planet graphics. I like the additional 2D star chart. Compass, GPS, accelerometer all used to give easy point at the star identifies the star. More to learn, more to praise, I expect. Bravo ๐Ÿ™Œ!

If I had 3 thumbs ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ AWESOME Thank you to everyone who worked on this app. Making science fun & easy.

Thank you!

It works very well for me to find where are the stars during daylight . Thank you so much for sharing such a good apps!

Amazing visibility!

This app is glorious, it shows you exactly where everything is from the sun to the moon. The constellations, planets, everything! With this app, I finally got to see where my zodiac constellation is, and what it looks like! I especially love the globe feature, so that you can see what parts of the world are in daytime, and nighttime! I am definitely recommending this to my family, and my cousins who love astronomy/space!

Perfection

Been using Planets since iPhone3. Never let me down. Ideal for stargazing and with enough info on the planets to keep young minds engaged.
Also, low battery & data use. No ads. Perfect

Great, but...

This app is great, but needs a serious update. The rings on Saturn are all pixelated and look brutal. Uranus is missing its rings, and now that we know what half of Pluto looks like, it would be nice to add that as well. Adding some of the largest moons around the planets would be great. This app has so many possibilities.
