Did Not

Work for me. Everything I tried it would send a pop up that I would have to buy it to see a planet or the moon or any star etc.
Here's the thing for me. If you have an app that's free developers then let it be free..
Otherwise be up front and charge for it.
Because now I'll start watching for your developor name on other apps and I won't use them thinking they will be lame too.

An Essential

It is just too useful, too packed with excellent features and a crisp, easy-to-use interface. Never leave home without it. An astronomy-buff must-have.

iPad Air

Camera doesn't seem to work with the app like the iPhone. Any work being done?
Support address is dead. Doesn't work on iPad correctly. Sad. Very great app concept.

Up to date?

I love the app, but it is not behaving for me. Using iOS 9.3.1 and an iPad 2, the camera doesn't work (not a biggie), and clicking the map button crashes the app. When was the last time this app was updated?
