A must to have!

I wish I had access to such an app when ,as a youth,
astronomy was my passion.

It is cluttered

Other reviews say how it’s not cluttered, but I found it to be very cluttered. And new things would start showing up in the interface that I didn’t know what they were. I didn’t know how to turn them off, just random things when updates what happened. All of a sudden it was in dark mode and I had no idea why.
