Great App only thing is you can’t turn the annoying music off

Not what it seems

So first off you won’t be able to use this app unless you get a subscription bcuz there’s no free version of this app. They force you to pay for it by getting a subscription. Secondly when you do get a chance to go into the app which I don’t know how I was able to get into it but there’s a white search bar that is glaring out at you disturbing your view of the stars and constellations etc. it won’t go away, it’s just there in your face😠 all the time and in the way. Third, everything is kind of sketchy. And finally I was able to get into the actual app one time and all of a sudden there’s a error message that pops up saying you need a subscription to use the app, well I’m not paying one damn cent for this app. I think that if you want a really good app go over to Sky Guide they’re the best. Dont waste your time leave this app alone. Thank you to these greedy, money hungry developers. I’m deleting the app follow my lead don’t even download it

False advertising

The 3 day free trial is a scam, they debit the money directly from your account. Is not about the money, is about being honest from the beginning

They charged me for free trial

The app has one week free trial, when I subscribed, I cancelled the subscription but they still charged me

Awesome

This is awesome
