Galaxy not even colliding
Please make galaxy’s collide when I add galaxies they’re not colliding very bad ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
Blinding.
I like this app a lot, I think.
But I'm blinded by the white bar across the bottom. I hold my hand over it to watch but get tired of bothering. Hide that bar and I'll give it another try.

Touted controls nonexistent
I simply tried to slow the simulation down and there was no way to do it. It says in the help that you can tap on the upper left part of the screen to bring up the settings and that there is a slow motion slider somewhere. I tapped 1000 ways to Tuesday and no settings came up.I could not find The slow-motion slider anywhere and is not in the settings anywhere.
So unless you just want to watch galaxies collide at top speed leaving you little or no Ability to see watch what's going on don't bother downloading this app!

Could use dark matter hall simulator
It's quite a beautiful and rather accurate simulation of galaxy mergers. In answer to two other reviews of the current version, there is an option to increase or decrease the amount of time between each reset, along with allowing the simulation to run without reset.
Also, the disintegration of the galaxy occurs when the black holes at the centers of each galaxy merge and rocket into a random direction faster than escape velocity. This only happens in galaxy simulations with low or no dark matter halos.
Dark matter also effects the shape and rotation of the stars, themselves. Without DMH, the stars will rotate as in this simulation, swirling like water around the central black hole, with the outer stars rotating significantly more slowly than the inner stars. With the inclusion of DMH, the outer stars rotate at about the same rate as the inner stars due to the gravitational influence of the halo. This causes the spiral shape and stellar velocities that are actually observed in spiral galaxies.
Dark matter may also contribute to the shape or formation of central bulge in galaxies. Adding this feature (no idea how feasible from a coding standpoint) could potentially make this app more realistic that it even already is.

I don't think it was worth it
The galaxies that i set were the largest possible, i tried two at first then progressively got to 5 at a time. It was pretty neat watching them collide with each other. One of the problems i think it has is that after a certain period of time elapsed the galaxies would reset whether or not they had collided yet or not. Also after they collide completely the entirety of each galaxy disappears. Not trying to bash this app, it is interesting and fun to play around with but it needs some fine tuning and additional settings to make me feel like i didn't just buy an app that i will uninstall and never use again. If anything get the lite version and play around on it for free.

Amazing but could use more parameters.
I love this app I personally find it very entertaining! I would, however, like more options such as a much higher particle limit, Galaxy thickness and type, The ability to change constants such as gravity, speed of light, etc... I have also come across whet I think is a bug. If you let the simulation run for a long time all of the stars just suddenly disintegrate :(.

stabil und schnell
On my 3GS it works fine, fast and impressing, tested with several settings
Laeuft stabil und schnell, auch mit 1000 Sternen.

?????
Worked for 1 day now it shows a black screen n it won't do anything
It isnt a game its a simulation
Its recommended that you get this app if you have a 4s or an ipad 3
Great
No crashes here either on my original iPhone or the IP4. Just ordered some 3D glasses for this !
Worth the money!
Works perfectly on iPhone 4s. Beautiful visuals and lots of fun.
Needs to keep settings
Besides the random crashing mentioned by others I wish the app would hold all my configuration settings when I quit (or it quits itself).
Very nice when it works though.
Thanks,
Chris

Update please.
Crashes when any parameters are changed. Please update ASAP. Will give 5 stars when updated.
8 months have passed since this review and still no update. Wake up designers.

Horrible
Does not simulate anything more than a ragged, rapidly deteriorating cluster of dots and crashes randomly. Complete waste of time and money.
Not great, by a long shot
It seems cool, but I can't even put three galaxies on without the game freezing. It really needs work, but eventually it could be worthwhile.
Pretty Fantastic
I love this app! Being an amateur astronomer and space enthusiast, I can spend lots of time fiddling with and observing the interesting phenomena this app explores. Even if I knew nothing about interacting galaxies, gravity still seems to create a beautiful display of art for anyone who wanted a solid art app. Everything is superb, though I'd absolutely love to see some of my personal suggestions... I see MASSIVE potential for this app! -
- *Introduce more astrophysics!* Implement some stellar physics or something! This would surely include a "Realistic Color" setting, which would give galaxies realistic colors according to the age/type of their stars, (gas/dust?) amount of star formation (starbursts and whatnot), ect.! ..Just general astrophysics.
-More refined and accurate camera control, and a 'zoom to' function, maybe. AND, I frequently accidentally reset the simulation when moving the camera directly after zooming. Can the reset simulation function be something more complicated than a double tap?
-More individual/specialized settings for each galaxy? At the bare minimum for example, the ability to set a custom radius for each galaxy in the simulation.
-Custom environments? (ability to use pictures on device for backgrounds)
-And I like the speed function.
*Just elaborate on this app and it will grow even more spectacular!

Meh
Ab 3 Galaxien funktioniert das Neustarten durch Doppelklick nicht mehr, genausowenig der Zoom und die Drehungen. Ab 3 Galaxien hat das Programm leider große Mängel, Aussetzer und Ruckler.
Stürzt ab / Crash
Stürzt ab, wenn man direkt nach dem Start in Einstellungen "5 Galaxien" wählt und "Simulate" drückt. Danach habe ich nicht weiter probiert.
Iphone 4 mit zum heutigen Tage aktuellem OS

Absolute rubbish
The 2 galaxies at the start are fine, but the app seems to crash every Time I seem to change anything. There should be an update to try and fix this.
