  • Absolutely perfect

    I do visual astronomy with my telescopes and this app is perfect to tell me what I will be seeing and when in the coming evening when I point the telescope to any of the given gas giants. Especially Jupiter and Saturn as they are the closest and most visible. Excellent presentation, clean, simple and very useful. Well done!

  • App still not updated to support newer devices

    I can’t even figure out how to use this app because half the menu bar at the top is covered by the notch on newer iPhones.

    The iPhone notch has been around for 5 years. Either update your app or remove it from the App Store.
  • Uranus and Neptune Not Working

    It seems that the models for Uranus and Neptune have now ceased to work. I’ve tried this version or both iPhone and iPad but get the same result - no movement for the outer gas giants’ moons.
  • Small criticisms

    1. The app name displays as "Gas Giants-debug". Not sure what this means or if it is functionally significant. Redownloading doesn't fix.
    2. Time slider has no effect for Uranus and Neptune.
  • iOS 14: Jovian Moons Don’t Fit

    This is a simple and well executed app but the Jupiter view doesn’t display the full width of the orbits for Ganymede and Callisto. I can only view in portrait mode and can’t pinch enough to view the wider orbits.

    Also, the iPhone 11’s tab at the top covers the menu to choose Saturn or Uranus.

    Will upgrade to 5 stars if the full view of Jupiter’s satellites can be seen, if the app can go into landscape mode and if the menu choices for Saturn and Uranus aren’t covered by the tab at the top of the iPhone 11 screen.

  • Still awesome to this day!

    i love this app. imo the best part about it is if you are able to see the gas giants moons through your telescope, you are able to identify which moons you are looking at. one thing that would be awesome is if you made an app like this that showed mercury, venus, an especially earth and mars because they have moons.

  • So close to greatness!

    Overall this app is brilliant and easy to use. My only gripe with it is the sizing does not appear to be scaled for the current iPhone’s as the notch gets in the way of the planet selection. If fixed this would be an easy 5 star!
  • Update the app

    Please update. I can’t zoom in as much and I also can’t go side to side and zoom in on the moons as well. Please fix that. still Pretty good though!
  • Good, but please update for the notch!

    App is simple and does what it's supposed to, so that's always appreciated!

    However, the iPhone X and similar models have been out for nearly two years, and the Saturn and Uranus tabs are covered by the screen notch. Please update to mitigate this!
  • Just a great program!

    I love using this program when imaging the planets :)
