After I cancelled the subscription, I submitted a refund request with Apple support and they denied it. So it was NOT in fact a free trial. This is misleading info to bait and switch app users into signing up and should be reported and rectified. ### 2/5 — Annoying music *2026-06-08, version 3.5.5* Cannot turn off the audio so every time I open the app it stops my music :/ ### 1/5 — Doesn’t track correctly *2026-06-05, version 3.5.5* App doesn’t track the sky correctly. It points me to the south when it is showing me west. It’s obviously wrong when the Moon is frame, but it’s actually off to your side! ### 1/5 — Not tracking sky *2026-05-27, version 3.5.2* Waste of money. It is not tracking the sky correctly. It says east when pointing north. 2 iPads and doesn’t work on either ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-04-09, version 3.5.1* The "free" part doesn't even work. It crashes trying to force you to subscribe. Can't adjust the terrible music or mute it. ### 1/5 — Mein stern wir mir nicht mehr angezeigt *2026-04-04* Ich habe zur meiner Taufe vor 2 Jahren einen Stern Geschekt bekommen wenn ich meinen Stern anschauen möchte wir die Nummer gefunden aber nicht mehr als Registriert angezeigt. Sehr schade. ### 1/5 — How to use this I don’t know confused *2026-03-26, version 3.4.0* Confusing don’t know how to use ### 1/5 — This app is a lie *2026-03-20, version 3.4.0* So today I wanted to find the moon for Eid since it was difficult to find I thought this app would help me find it but I realized that it was not accurate at all because I found the moon on my own and it was nowhere near where the app said it should be. ### 1/5 — Pay to use *2026-03-11, version 3.4.0* You get 60 seconds to use it before it forces you to pay a subscription. Trash. ### 5/5 — Star gazer *2026-02-01, version 3.4.0* Brilliant ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — They charged me for free trial *2026-08-27, version 3.6.0* The app has one week free trial, when I subscribed, I cancelled the subscription but they still charged me ### 1/5 — Nul *2026-08-25* Nul on doit payer direct avant meme de voir quoi que ce soit ### 1/5 — Free trial = non-existent *2026-08-16, version 3.5.8* My son wanted to try an app for looking at the stars. As this had a free trial, we decided to give it a go. Only to find out we were charged from day one. Apple then refused to refund. Be careful if downloading. 🤦‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Lame *2026-08-13, version 3.5.8* Whack AF. Unusable unless you purchase a subscription. Deleted right away ### 1/5 — No preview, pay cash *2026-08-04, version 3.5.8* No free for preview ### 1/5 — Not a hobby app *2026-08-04, version 3.5.8* I should have checked more thoroughly, but I thought this was going to be a stargazing app like Stellaris. This is the unfortunate aspect of ads/sponsored apps which can rise to the top even when they are of low quality. This is not suitable for finding objects and has many annoying features like constantly pestering you to name a star. ### 1/5 — Trash *2026-07-06, version 3.5.6* Pay to play ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-07-05, version 3.5.6* App does not load ### 1/5 — Do not download. Bait and switch with refusal to refund. *2026-06-26, version 3.5.6* The app advertises a 3-day trial. It charged my card immediately after I subscribed. When I requested a refund, the company refused. If you want to avoid a fraudulent charge, use a different app. ### 1/5 — What happened to my free trial? *2026-06-10, version 3.5.5* When I signed up, it said you get three days to try it for free before you're charged... NOT TRUE. I was charged $1.99 right away. Shady. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-26, version 3.6.0* This is awesome ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-08-17, version 3.5.8* This is so cool nice work ### 5/5 — Goddess Isis of the Egyptian Civilization *2026-08-13, version 3.5.8* When the constellation of Orion is in the sky above me, I am able to speak to the star Mintaka on Orion’s Belt, Isis is known in Ancient Egypt daughter of the Nile and wife to Osiris. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-07-30* Excellent ### 5/5 — Riveting information *2026-07-18, version 3.5.8* Very riveting and very helpful in locating stars ### 5/5 — Stars make me feel at Home *2026-07-06, version 3.5.6* This app makes me Happy ### 5/5 — Omg *2026-06-14, version 3.5.6* Omg ### 5/5 — VC *2026-06-13, version 3.5.6* Very cool. ### 5/5 — Jenna Rae *2026-04-27, version 3.5.1* We were gifted a star for our daughter that passed on 4/4/26, we can’t wait to go out and find her this evening.
