### 5/5 — Simple works best

*2020-06-01, version 6.1*

Beautiful in its simplicity. I’ve used it for years

### 5/5 — Great!

*2013-05-31, version 4.1*

I've had this app for nearly 2 years and even though I don't use it very much, it has always been such a great app to open and see the moon when I can't see it outside.

### 2/5 — Bad App

*2012-10-14, version 4.1*

Not functioning.

### 1/5 — Updated, does not function.

*2012-09-13, version 4.0*

Just updated, now it does nothing. Shows a sky, then folds.
Too bad.

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2012-06-09, version 3.1*

Useful for current the moon phase and when the next full moon will be.

### 3/5 — iMOONu LOST IT'S BEST FEATURE

*2010-12-18, version 3.1*

There's no night horizon landscape any more. It was beautifully pleasant to reflect on a night sky while also your program showed the moon cycles!! Now there is no background and nothing to reflect on only moon cycles.

 iMOONu needs a background -- random landscapes. With some few stars!!! Gives us SOME-THING to reflect meditate on, besides a goofy name!!!

ONLY NICE THING ABOUT IT, it is very very simple!!! Who needs more complicated detail control buttons??

### 1/5 — Terrible!  Hardly usable!

*2010-10-19, version 0*

Thus app is hardly usable. At the least it should let you swipe from one day to the next, instead of having yo use the tumblers to pick a date each time.  Also, in monthly view it should jump to the day when you click on it. And the text in the day view does not even update reliably. Just terrible.

### 1/5 — Not worth your trouble even if it was free.

*2010-09-29, version 0*

Very disappointed.   All this app does is show you a picture of the current day or the current month view.  To change dates you have to manually enter a new date which is a complete pain.  There is no way to swipe back and forth between days or months.  In the month view, you can’t even touch a moon image to go to that date.   It would be far better and more functional to just go to one of the many moon phase websites out there for free.  I wouldn’t use this app even if it were free.  For-pay apps should come with some level of a guarantee of merchantability from iTunes, but unfortunately they don’t.  The 5-star rating comments are obviously marketing plants, and are completely misleading (like the guy who said he got his homework done a month early because of this app and learned the moon phases).   Dennis Nederlof should be ashamed for actually charging money for this application.

### 4/5 — like it , but

*2009-07-23, version 0*

would like an option to put the current moon on the front page instead of the earth iconput the moon icon with the craters names as an option and possibly a small howl alarm when its the full moon would be nice toothanks though and me still likey

### 2/5 — Shows moon phases well - nothing else.

*2009-07-15, version 0*

I expected this app to show moonrise and moonset times. It does not. The monthly calendars are a nice touch. Should have been titled MoonPhases because that is about all it does.
