  • Personal path to the stars

    A amazing look at the cosmos, a reminder of the good old days racing through warp space. Now I am grounded on earth without a ship ( starship that is). The whole family spends many a night on the back lawn stargazing - but thanks to this amazing APP we now know what we are looking at. The great thing about this APP is we are using a gadget and gadgets normally stop real world interaction, but with this one. We sit/lie together outside, under the night sky, star gazing and chatting and learning just how lucky we are to live under this awesome sky in awesome south western Australia where the stars are so bright in our perfect night sky. Thanks from us for this amazing APP.

  • Fantastic!

    This app is wonderful for those who simply enjoy looking up at the night sky or who are intrigued by how the universe was formed. It is very informational and easy to use.
  • Perfect use of technology

    Maybe I'm late to the party. That said, my wife and I were sitting on our patio in the Arizona desert, staring up at the night sky, and arguing over what the name of a particular was. I pulled out my iPad, downloaded this app, and was completely stunned as it transformed my experience of the stars above me... No instructions needed. I simply pointed my iPad at a star and the app showed me the same star on my screen, with a wealth of information. This is great software...simply to use, intuitive controls, and leverages the technology built into the iPad like geolocation and motion sensing devices. Brilliant.

  • Billions and billions!

    Incredible application! Ever wanted to find the nearest galaxy, nearest star, or just what that flickering light just might be? Now you can stargaze from the comfort of your own home, day or night. Have a telescope? ... The app gives all the technical data. New to astronomy? ... Just point at a highlighted object in the display and a window opens with a description. There's a nighttime setting if you want to take your iPad outside on a clear night and not sacrifice your night vision looking at a bright screen. Constellations are imposed on the star map, so you'll be able to find the king of planets when your horoscope says "Jupiter is in Taurus." You'll also see the majesty of the Milky Way, and better understand our place in it.

  • New to Apple. Love it!

    I freakin love it! Please quote me if needed. Thank you.
  • Amazing

    Amazing app. All I have to do is point to a star I see, and it tells me all the information about it, and the surrounding constellation. I cannot suggest any improvements to be made. Therefore the perfect app. Thank you.
  • A great application

    This is one of the most satisfying apps for the ipad.
    It is clear, easy to work with, delivers much, and is free.
    Thank you for a great piece of work, it is highly recommended.
    My night time gazing is improved and my armchair gazing is now exciting.
  • The best App available today!

    So brilliant - absolute quality for either kids getting into astronomy or adult astronomers needing a quick reference. Amazing, mind-blowing technology - really, you just hold it up against the sky and it identifies everything in range... it can even increase brightness (and thus quantity of stars you see) based on the smog or cloud cover you have. Should be App of the year, no doubt.
