Excellent sky map

This is a simple and clear sky map. The way it shows deep sky objects took me a little while to understand but now that I see how it’s tracking and labeling them it’s very effective. Reminds me of the old DOS app SkyGlobe, which was a gem.

Planning sessions for Computerized telescopes

Excellent app for learning the sky and finding nearby sky objects for computerized telescopes daytime and nighttime. Highly recommended. Using this app & Using the Sun & the Moon as alignment objects in my Celestron Nexstar 127 Mak., I was able to see Venus, Mercury, Jupiter & Saturn in the daytime. Planning my night sessions with this app, I was able to enjoy more deep sky objects each time.... Clear Skies.

Great Little App!

I am an astro app addict and this simple app kicks butt! There are times when you want to take a quick look at what's up in the sky tonight and this app does the trick. I like the 180 deg. option of seeing and tracking the sky in the direction you are facing. Also, there is just the the right number of stars presented so your view is not cluttered. Check it out and see if you agree. You also can't beat the price! (Free).
