Fantastic and fun
Love being able to name stars and planets. But I'd like to be able to refer tot them by their Māori names. Add a utility that allows me to add their Māori names.Te Aroha
A great app for enthusiasts and amateurs Alike
I found this extremely impressive and was handy because I just got a powerful telescope. It's a good way of showing kids about the stars and solar system and they like using it as well.ReviewerX.99
Awesome
Out of all my almost 400 apps (which isn't many) this is by far my most used app. It's phenomenal, I love it. The accuracy in the technology that is applied and the running of this app is incredible. I cannot praise it enough. It's apps like this, the reason why I bought my iPad.swannyGamers
Great astronomy app
Awesome app, I use this a lot.
A good feature I think it should have is the ability to zoom in so you can see more, other than that, best free astronomy app I've seen!Gh0stchips
Speechless after using this app!
I don't know what to say. I've never been one who concerned myself with constellations and astronomy. But after using this app I'm completely blown away by what is above me each day. I got this app after my wife asked me about constellations. I could point out the Big Dipper (I'm from Alaska) and Orion, but that was it. I downloaded and tried out this app after seeing the great reviews and I'm just floored with how easy and awesome it is. ANYONE can use it. And it's got a wealth of information there that'll keep me busy for months. More importantly, my mind is opened up and I am now completely fascinated by the stars. Wonderful App! I hope more people like me end up trying it.Show lessByron425

Seems to work well with orientation, once calibrated, accurate especially with the Venus in the night sky - will need to wait til we get out into the country to have a good look at the constellationsMarkGMack
A must-have app!
Just could be more accurate sometimes but still is a great app!!!kiwi-swift

Fantastic clarity, and so simple to use. I particularly like the fact that it encourages me to stand outside and face the objects I am identifying, rather than sit in an armchair and simply scroll around maps of the stars. I can identify a planet, a constellation, a galaxy or whatever with the iPad, and can then move it out of my eye line and know that I am looking at exactly the right part of the sky rather than (as I am sure I have done many times) spend half an hour staring at the wrong area and wondering why the stars are not where I thought they would be. ... It's like having the great Patrick Moore as a companion every time I step into the garden in the evening. Excellent, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes to look up when it's dark.Show lessYorkshire Dad
Enchanting
I wish we had a climate that encouraged lying on your back looking up at the stars with this gadget running on the iPad but sadly, Scotland's winter weather isn't all that hospitable. Still, winter is when we get the clearest night skies (we have a very short and light night sky this far north) and this makes it a joy if you're wrapped up warmly.
Only four stars so far because I think they could develop the search facilities a little more by persisting search names in the search box if you flip between say, constellations and planets (some of us don't know which of the well-known names are stars and which are distant constellations or nebulae. The 'Go to' could be a bit more reliable. However, this is a treat and while not as graphically slick as Sky Walk, it's more informative, at least for an astronomically undereducated sky watcher like me.
Well worth the few quid, less than the price of a pint and longer lasting - absolutely great fun.Show lessStickyWillie
Must have Application
I love this App! I tell all my friends about it. I no more have to wonder what that big bright star is in the sky. Thanks to this beaut app I now know that it is planet Jupiter! It's fun learning constellations in such a visual and easy to learn manner. Definately worth the buck... Go on and order yours now!Show lessmxo3130.com
