Solar System for iPad User Reviews

App crashes

Can't open the app as it crashes on startup. After paying $15 I'm disappointed it doesn't work. Try explaining that to your seven year old who wants to learn about the solar system and was very excited to be using the app. Not happy.

Could be nice if it worked

Hard to judge if this app is any good since it fails on starting. It is basic that an app should at least run. Touch Press usually does good work (such as Elements) but to release an app that can't even run on a 64GB iPad with iOS 7.0.3 doesn't say much.
Hopefully they will fix this problem soon.

Majestic

I will attempt to describe how phenomenal this app is! It is gorgeous, extremely user intuitive, and hard to put down. I am a homeschool mom, so I am constantly looking for educational information that captures students and draws them in. This app is a win from beginning to end. Well done!

Absolutely beautiful!

The app is beautifully done. Informative and elegant. Please note that those giving one star are disappointed that the app no longer works with the iPad 1. It works beautifully with later iPads, though. Very cool.

Solar system for iPad

My 7 year old son enjoys this app. It gives a good perspective on spatial awareness.

French title english version

Why do you put a french name for an app that do not have a french version. I'm really mad and I d'ont feel I should pay for that.

Won't let me open Uranus…

It might make me close inside Uranus, but now it won't let me open it!

Tech

Many reviews are disappointed about the lack of iPad 1 support.
The problem is that Apple should never have brought out and advertised the iPad 1 the way they did. [Not including the memory, etc. at the time was a sign, as it does make a difference.]

The iPad 2 is really what the iPad 1 should be, and probably will be the one to last the longest in future updates for various apps.

Though with the retina display etc, it to will have seen its days.

The problem is not as much the developers of the app, for what it is they are delivering, but the makers of the tech and what they choose to release and how it is advertised/perception of capabilities.

Seriously

Don't update something I bought that I actually can't update!

Do not download this app!!!!

I paid for this app and loved using it, especially with my kids. Now they won't support us suckers with the iPad1. That's a lousy way to treat customers. Don't become a sucker, find another app that offers continued updates and respect for paying customers.
