### 5/5 — Love this — very informative!

*2021-02-20, version 2.0*

I look forward to an update with the addition of the Perseverance Rover!!

### 4/5 — Great app!!!

*2021-02-20*

This is a great app! It gives me a lot of info!!! Thank u!!!! Just one problem,I’m sad that the rover that just landed yesterday on Mars it was called Persevere is not listed on the app with the other rovers. Please add Perseverance to the list!!! Besides that, everything is great!!! 
Thank u!!!
Sobie 😊
Also one more suggestion! If you can make this app an Apple Watch app that would be cool!

### 5/5 — Totally amazing

*2021-02-18*

Nothing can say how amazing this is,just try it.

### 5/5 — Mars time

*2021-01-03, version 1.2.4*

Very cool to know whats going on, on another planet.

### 5/5 — Feel the spirit of exploration!

*2020-11-08*

Not very useful... but man it brings a tear to my eye getting to see what time it is on Mars and get the local weather reports for the rover. Here's hoping we'll see boots on Mars, sooner rather than later (-:

*2020-08-13, version 1.2.3*

Not an unstable OS Atlantis

### 5/5 — So interesting!

*2020-06-02*

I’m not terribly smart but I find all of this information so interesting. You’ve got all the information to give you a brief understanding of where and what the temperatures are at a certain point of the planet.

### 5/5 — Interesting app

*2020-03-24*

But wish it would also offer the Darian calendar!

### 5/5 — Simple and functional!

*2019-09-30*

Great app. Would be even more fun if it could have info on the next close approach and opposition to Earth.

### 5/5 — Love the app!

*2019-05-10*

I’ve always been interested in space travel and going to different galaxies.... and I’ve wanted to go to mars since I was 12 I know it won’t happen but this fills in the blank space!

### 4/5 — Complication

*2019-05-04*

I love the app and it’s concept and all the info it shows, but the watch complication is not updating the time nor does it show the temperature

### 1/5 — Tnoway

*2021-06-14, version 2.1*

A waste of time for this app

### 1/5 — Just a clock! Can’t get out of credits/settings mode!

*2020-09-30*

No actual weather patterns. The Mars weather is just a still shot wallpaper. Most of the Mars probes they use for “Mars time” are dead probes. It’s just a running clock: stopwatch style. I can’t understand why this app is receiving such high ratings! And once I went to the options/settings/credits, I’m stuck there with no way to go back or draw up a menu. Even if I exit the app and go back in. Not that I’m missing anything. Horrible!

**Developer response:** Thanks very much for your feedback, I’ll get the settings page dismiss sorted, but for now you can just swipe down to dismiss.
The curiosity screen features weather and shows indicators for trends, you can tap the forecast for more detail, I’ll make this clearer too.
Most of the time is for dead probes because most probes on Mars are now dead. If there are other landmarks on Mars I should be providing time calculations for I’d really love the suggestions. Please drop me an email through the app

### 2/5 — Nice but not accurate

*2025-01-20, version 2.2.0*

The insight lander has been dead for 3 yrs now, should be updated… otherwise fine.

### 3/5 — App modification

*2024-09-26, version 2.2.0*

It would be great if could see a wide view of the planet itself, not just the landers.

### 3/5 — Mars Weather

*2021-05-02, version 2.1*

The Mars temperature and weather hasn’t been updated in over 30 days; perhaps it malfunctioned.

### 3/5 — Mars sol 24 hours 39 minutes and 35 seconds

*2021-04-19, version 2.1*

What a great app!

### 3/5 — Just started.  Looks great.

*2020-12-11, version 1.2.4*

Look forward to checking the site out.

### 3/5 — When it works, it’s great!

*2019-03-03*

The phone and watch apps work great, but I was mostly interested in this app for the Apple Watch complication. Unfortunately more often than not, the complication freezes on my watch and remains stuck on whatever last time it had updated to. There is also no way to set one of the several times from the app to be the one you see on the watch. Killing the app on the watch, swapping watch faces sometime fixes the complication freeze. For reference, I’m using a S0 watch running the latest version of watchOS 4.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback. I’m aware of this, and it’s improved in the next update.
Thanks.

### 4/5 — Yay for Mars

*2023-11-03*

What your iPad was made for.

### 4/5 — Cool app

*2022-09-25*

This is kind of a dumb and pointless app, but for space lovers like myself, I actually kind of like this app as it kind of reminds me of wwv which is a station here on earth that gives the time in utc. You could say that this app is like WWV in that it gives a form of UTC but for the red planet. I also find it neat that you can even get the local Martian  weather too. Lol.

### 5/5 — What?

*2026-05-02*

Isn’t the insight lander dead? It died because of dust accumulated on the solar panels preventing from getting the needed power, right? I came in with high expectations, and don’t get me wrong it deserves the five star review, but it feels outdated.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-07-30*

I am a real space geek so this app sends to be made for people like me

### 5/5 — Great mars clock

*2024-04-25*

This is a great mars clock and even has info on the time on mars and the different rovers. I did some research and this is perfectly calibrated to actual mars time.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2023-07-06*

A lot of info for those wanting to learn more about the Mars probes as well as info about Mars!  Very intuitive and fun to use!

### 5/5 — I am new but happy

*2023-04-19, version 2.2.0*

Nice informative and stunning photos

### 5/5 — Cool View of Mars at a Glance

*2023-01-01*

I was fascinated by the real time updates of weather and current mission details on the red planet. The history lesson of “Dead probes” (past missions) was also interesting to see how far we have come in exploration.

A generous prediction would be a handful of the best of humankind visits Mars in the next 50 years. Until that time, this app helps make Mars not so out of reach.

*2021-03-11*

Basic, simple, fun, free, etc….    I think it’s a good way to intro someone who wouldn’t be interested, otherwise. 🧐
