I’ve given up now. Please fix! Would be very cool to see all reported meteors. ☄️ ### 2/5 — Uploading issue *2022-12-03, version 1.4.1* Entered a sighting but it’s stuck in ‘Waiting to upload’ state so unsure if it’s the app or if the backend server is no longer running? ### 3/5 — Used to like *2020-05-07, version 1.4.1* I update it and now the meteor shower area stays blank. It’s been a week. So now I don’t like it anymore. I am in the US so I k ow it wasn’t really meant for me but it worked much better before ### 3/5 — Not reliable *2015-08-12, version 1.3.1* This app is saying moon is at its peak and the moon is not in the sky during this meteor shower... ### 4/5 — Make it for iPod !!!! *2014-10-03, version 1.1.2* . ### 3/5 — Good - but... *2014-09-12, version 1.1.2* Lovely app - really interesting & doesn't take up much space. But they don't keep it updated with info about what's going on in the sky. Some of the earlier stuff told about different meteor showers or sightings but very sporadic in news or updates so download, have a little look and then like me you'll probably get disheartened & delete it. Great concept - wouldn't take much to keep it updated Curtin University!! ### 3/5 — Reporting sightings *2014-02-26, version 1.1.0* Just download this app. An interesting idea. Started to report a sighting 2 hours after event but it's not possible to give the exact time. This app assumes you have app running and pointing at the fireball the moment it happens. This may explain why there are not many sightings listed in your database. My sighting will obviously not be confirmed at the submitted time does not match an actual event. ### 3/5 — Nice, not ready for ipad *2014-01-14, version 1.1.0* Works well, great features. Doesn't fit my iPad screen edges cut off. Update for retina displays please! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2013-11-27, version 1.1.0* Can't review the app because it crashes even before it's opened ### 1/5 — Not good *2013-11-27, version 1.1.0* Will not load ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ? *2024-05-21, version 1.4.1* Looks like app hasn’t been updated in a while, I saw a meteor and thought it would be cool to put it on here but I can’t do the report. It freezes when I try to put in the info. ### 1/5 — Outdated! Don’t bother *2023-08-13, version 1.4.1* I tried to find the Persied meteor shower … nothing! App is pretty useless :( ### 1/5 — App crashes. Not working. *2021-05-23, version 1.4.1* When trying to enter a correct date/time of sighting the app crashes and I can’t submit my sighting. (23 May 2021) I have deleted the app restarted my iPhone 12 Pro on iOS 14.5.1 and reinstalled the app and it still crashes. ### 1/5 — App keeps freezing after IOS update *2020-10-13, version 1.4.1* I have used this app for years, however now it keeps freezing when accessing the date of sighting tab. I have given up for now until this is fixed. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2019-11-06, version 1.4.1* It appears this is no longer supported or looked at by the University. All info is old (Jan19) and they don’t get back to you if you submit a sighting. ### 1/5 — Just crashes! *2019-08-01, version 1.4.1* Very appropriate for a meteorite app I guess but it just keeps crashing permanently when I try to start the app. Is there a fix? ### 1/5 — You broke a good thing😢 *2018-12-16, version 1.4.1* I don’t know what you guys did, but it used to work great and now the star map doesn’t do anything. It just defaults to a landscape setting and freezes ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2017-08-13, version 1.3.1* Don't download because it doesn't work and it won't work on iOS 11 ### 1/5 — Feedback *2014-01-05, version 1.1.0* More feed back before a sighting is confirmed would be good...submitted status could be there for long time...unable to scroll write ups out of way to view pictures? App is good idea but frustrating! ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing on launch *2013-11-28, version 1.1.0* Keeps crashing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — PLEASE UPDATE!!! *2022-08-29, version 1.4.1* Great app. I love it but it needs to be updated. Would like to use it again. ### 5/5 — It was great *2022-07-28, version 1.4.1* It was one of our most used apps. I hope it does continue on though it seems it may be finished. ### 5/5 — Mr *2014-11-29, version 1.1.2* I have only just installed this app and would like to see a detailed section on exactly how to use it. Also an app for iPad would be great. ### 5/5 — Great project. *2013-11-28, version 1.1.0* Love the idea. Nice and easy to use BUT I wanted to edit the date and time of what I think I saw as it was yesterday evening but I only got the app this morning. Can that feature be added please? ### 5/5 — Fireballs! *2013-09-24, version 1.0* Super cool app! ### 4/5 — Update required *2022-11-17, version 1.4.1* I spend a lot of time in the bush and have use this app a lot but have only made one report. It was useful but now no longer scrolls in the articles. iPhone 12 mini iOS16.1.1 Hope it gets some love. ### 4/5 — Is it still logging data? *2022-04-15, version 1.4.1* Are the developers still using this app? Just logged a daytime event! ### 4/5 — Needs Fixing *2022-01-29, version 1.4.1* This app really needs an update because of the dates shown in the sightings board is not up to date with the month and year we are in now.!! ### 4/5 — Time to update *2017-10-25, version 1.3.1* Nice little app. Needs to be updated to run under iOs 11. ### 4/5 — One to keep *2015-08-12, version 1.3.1* I'll be keeping this on hand! Great to be able to record a sighting. Loving the starmap too, informative! As a user experience designer, I'll say the process for recording the trail of a meteoroid is really good!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
