### 5/5 — Très utile et agréable

*2020-09-28*

Fonctionne très bien. Merci 😊

**Developer response:** Bonjour,

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour, je regarde pour corriger rapidement le bouton de retour depuis les paramètres. Toutes mes excuses pour le désagrément.

Très bonne journée,
Nicolas

### 5/5 — No Verical screen

*2020-09-25*

I thought from the first image that there would be a vertical view. There is not.
This app is exactly what I wanted, to replace another app that is no longer offered- a night time clock with a space background. 
My charging stand sits my phone vertically, but the screen in this app does not adjust.
It seems like it would be a easy fix, which would make it perfect.
As of right now, it’s a wasted dollar.

### 4/5 — Back button doesn’t work in settings

*2020-05-11*

Have to close out of the app and get back in to see desired changes.

### 2/5 — One annoying thing.

*2019-07-13*

I would love this app except for one thing. The display only works when the charge port is on the left, and instead of simply switching the way most apps do, it works only on one way only. My charge setup has to have the charging port on the right, and so, I've wasted my dollar. What a really dumb thing to have to consider when purchasing an app, and how amateur hour this developer!

**Developer response:** Hi David,

This app can turn in both directions :)
If the screen on your iOS device won't rotate, you can do this:

Make sure that Portrait Orientation Lock is turned off. To check, open Control Center. If you see a red icon - lock and arrow icon, tap it to turn Portrait Orientation Lock off.

Thank you and Have a good space trip!

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2019-03-20*

I just wanted a normal clock that wasn’t an alarm and this app is perfect. I love this clock!!!

### 5/5 — Love this app.

*2018-07-05*

This app is perfect!! I use every night, I love it!!

**Developer response:** Hi PasswordKeeper, Thank you so much for using Space Night Light and leaving me a great review.

You're right, it's a very good idea to change time format. I just added it in version 1.2.2 !

I really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience and improve the app. :)

Have a good space trip!
