### 1/5 — Not what I was expecting

*2022-08-24, version 1.0*

I was hoping to be able to research a particular asteroid and it only gives you specific ones depending on the date with only a 3D reference of the asteroid but nothing more and then some “picture of the day”. Don’t buy this app for educational purposes!

### 1/5 — Update??????

*2022-04-13, version 1.0*

Give us an update please I just don’t see how this is accurate depiction of where the asteroid or asteroids are at

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2021-11-27, version 1.0*

Doesn’t even work! It’s a rip off!!!

### 2/5 — Basic

*2021-06-01*

Very basic, was disappointed

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-03-12*

It doesn’t track anything. It gives info on the asteroids but doesn’t track. Very disappointing!

### 1/5 — It does not work!

*2020-06-05, version 1.0*

It does not work! Please fix it or refund me!

### 1/5 — Fake app

*2020-04-05, version 1.0*

Is not working don’t pay for it

### 1/5 — Ripoff.

*2020-01-02*

The “AR” asteroid is one cartoon pic that is the same for all asteroids, just looks bigger or smaller. Can only see a small list of asteroids. A complete waste of money.

### 2/5 — Shouldn’t have to pay $1.49 for this

*2019-09-24*

I appreciate the fact that we live in a day and age where we have the technological ability to track orbiting asteroids. Although, the app has very basic information. The information of each asteroid and a pic of the day. The augmented reality feature would be cool if it wasn’t the same photo of an asteroid even though I selected different ones.

### 5/5 — Never seen an app like this!!!

*2019-08-25, version 1.0*

This app is amazing, I am a big space fan and really enjoy using this app. It’s like having the NASA database right in your pocket. I also really like viewing the asteroids in Augmented Reality and gives a whole new experience. I recommend this app to everyone and especially if your insto space exploration! 👍
