### 4/5 — 3D모형은 굿……

*2026-06-05*

너무 유용한 기능입니다.

### 4/5 — Great App but does not work with iOS 26.4

*2026-04-04*

This app is wonderful and really worth it.  Sadly, it doesn’t work with iOS 26.4.  It just pops up and then quickly crashes.  So, be careful if using you want to try it on iOS 24.6.  Otherwise, wait until it gets fixed.  If really is a great app.

### 3/5 — Can not open app

*2026-04-02, version 10.7.19*

With the ios26.4. App keep crash.

### 1/5 — Stopped loading

*2026-04-02, version 10.7.19*

Worked great for one week. Now it crashes every time I try to start the app.

### 1/5 — can open app

*2026-04-02, version 10.7.19*

sad

### 1/5 — App startet nicht

*2026-04-01*

Getestet auf iPhone 16 und iPad Pro, 4te Generation. Rückerstattung ist beantragt.

### 3/5 — Good App but iOS Issues

*2026-04-01, version 10.7.19*

I like the app, when it’s working, it’s an amazing tool for sun and moon photography. The interface , planning features and precision made it my go to app for landscape photography. Unfortunately, on iOS it currently crashes and is unstable. The only suggestion the company provided was to use an Andripid device. I hope they can release an iOS fix soon because the app has potential but it’s hard to justify paying for something that doesn’t work on iOS

### 4/5 — App not working suddenly

*2026-04-01, version 10.7.19*

This is a great app when it works.

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2026-04-01, version 10.7.19*

Waste of money. I have the paid version. It crashes and won’t run.

### 2/5 — 앱 접속 불량

*2026-04-01*

어플 접속이 안됩니다

### 1/5 — Just trash

*2026-08-11, version 10.7.26*

The app doesn't work properly. Offline elevation data downloads constantly fail to load. The app freezes, and the interface overlaps with the standard OS elements (the buttons in the iPhone app control area simply don't click, for example offline map download). 
UI/UX is just unknown words for app developers. It will be shame even for free app. Refund request sent.

### 1/5 — why

*2026-04-05, version 10.7.19*

Why does iOS 26.2 keep crashing?

### 1/5 — L’appli ne s’ouvre plus

*2026-04-04*

Alors que ça marchait parfaitement depuis plusieurs années, l’appli ne s’ouvre plus.

### 1/5 — I Love it until it stopped working

*2026-04-04, version 10.7.19*

Planit is the new go to app for planning your photography…No doubt. There is a subscription but it has been worth it, because I use it almost everyday.  So, why the one star review? Because suddenly the app stopped working and a friend is having the same problem.  Planit responded to my email with”It happens.” and turn your iphone to airplane mode then open the app then exit airplane mode. Perhaps someone at Planit will see this one star review and get going on a fix. Because having to go into airplane mode and blah blah blah when I’m trying to set up my shot isn’t going to work.

### 5/5 — TIME SAVER, FUN & FUNCTIONAL!!

*2026-08-12, version 10.7.26*

This app was a massive game changer for me starting about 8 years ago. I started using it for astrophotography initially but rapidly started using it for landscapes, cityscapes, portraits, and even wedding and event shooting to check ideal times and location for natural lighting. The interface for the most part is intuitive, and for the areas that were not to me a few youtube videos cleared everything up. 

I recommend PLANIT to all of my photo students and love that whenever there is a software issue I can simply email the developer directly and it’s usually corrected within a week.  

Awesome app, continue the fantastic work!!

### 5/5 — My go to planner

*2026-06-19, version 10.7.24*

I’ve had both this and the “other” for 5 years or more. PlanIt it is far more intuitive in my view, with loads of little features that suit my workflow.
This is a far more visual app in my view . 
It has 99% of what I need or want plus stuff I don’t.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-31, version 10.7.22*

It is a great app to use for night photography, after you take sometime to learn how to use it.

### 5/5 — Best planning app…period!

*2026-05-29, version 10.7.22*

I use Planit Pro to plan all of my photography shoots, and it has become an essential part of my workflow. The app is incredibly powerful for planning sun and moon alignments, panoramas, Milky Way photography, star trails, timelapses, eclipse photography, and sun/moon sequence shots. While there is a learning curve due to the depth of features available, the effort is well worth it. Once you become familiar with the app, it becomes an invaluable tool for planning and executing photography sessions with precision.

### 5/5 — The app crashes immediately

*2026-04-11*

The app crashes immediately after opening. I’m using iOS 26.3.1. Please fix this!

Upd: Thanks!

### 5/5 — Recent crash

*2026-04-05, version 10.7.19*

iOS 26.4 caused the program to crash . I obtained excellent support. Wonderful program . I’ve used it for years. Excellent  support. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Great for Deepscape

*2026-04-04, version 10.7.19*

Fantastic app

### 5/5 — Crashing

*2026-04-02, version 10.7.19*

App crashing and now unable to access. Deleted the app and reinstalled. Problem remains.

### 5/5 — Ios 26.4 부터 앱이 켜지지 않는 오류가 있습니다😭

*2026-04-01*

Ios 26.4 부터 앱이 켜지지 않는 오류가 있습니다😭

### 5/5 — Can’t open the app
