This is your boy. ### 5/5 — Astronomy class *2019-10-23, version 5.2* This app went great with the astronomy class I took last year. I had so much fun with it I still use it all the time! ### 5/5 — Très bonne appli, très bien fait *2019-08-07, version 5.2* Parfait ### 5/5 — Me encanta! *2019-07-23, version 5.2* Muy buena app ### 5/5 — Ótimo para localizar planetas *2019-06-14, version 5.2* Pena não estar em português (Brasil) ### 5/5 — Absolutely Fantastic! *2019-06-09, version 5.2* Really not into stars and galaxies I downloaded this app with the intention to check if it worked and hopefully learn from it. The only comment I can make is: Amazing app. ### 5/5 — Two thuh won-star revuse: *2019-01-26, version 5.2* I’m letting my spelling reflect the 1⭐️ reviewers- Tri youzing yor lahjik ensted uhv yor baybeeish emoeshunz. If yor two duhm two figyor owt thuh kumpus, howe iz it pawsibel four yu two evin ahpurate annie asstronime ap? That iz juhst saad. It is nawt rahkeht siense! ### 3/5 — Add onto *2019-01-26, version 5.2* It would be nice if you included the weather as in where the cloudy conditions are so the person who is using the app knows what they are looking at if part or all the skies are cloudy. Otherwise, I think this app is very accurate when looking at the skies.!!! I give it 3 1/2 stars, @ least until you get the issues fixed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — stimmt nicht *2024-01-20, version 5.3.1* sonne sollte mit heute im wassermann stehen, ist aber tief im steinbock zu finden. oder habe ich eine alte version? ### 1/5 — Does NOT WORK with ipad pro 11 *2021-10-16, version 5.3* Worked great on earlier ipad 9.7. But still out two bucks… ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2020-08-13, version 5.3* Continues to default to Washington DC as my location. Great in concept - in reality a waste of time and money ### 1/5 — Not worth 1.99 *2020-07-22, version 5.3* I read the reviews before purchasing this app and I’m actually very disappointed. I’ve tried “reconfiguring my phone” but the stars simply do not line up. Not even close. There are free apps that work much much better than this. I would really love a refund. 🙃 ### 1/5 — Refund. *2020-06-02, version 5.3* I would like a refund of $1.99. This does not work. ### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY!!😠 *2020-05-17, version 5.2* WASTE OF MONEY!!!!! If you buy this app you will waste your money! It’s not accurate and it is so glitchy! Don’t listen to what others say! It’s not worth the money! ### 1/5 — Penis in a constellation? *2020-04-19, version 5.2* So, I was looking at a star on the Bootes constellation, specifically the Arcturus star, and sure enough it’s a penis and balls. Is that intentional? Wish I could include a screenshot. ### 1/5 — Rojo *2020-03-15, version 5.2* A ver si esta madre me dice de esa galaxia cerca de la luna ahora ### 1/5 — Es gibt viel bessere Apps *2020-03-11, version 5.2* Gyroskop funktioniert nicht wirklich flüssig. Ich bin mit den anderen App zufriedener. ### 1/5 — Gefopt en geld kwijt! *2018-04-05, version 5.0* Weer een app dat niet werkt!!! Weer gefopt!!! Afblijven dus!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — By far the best astronomy App *2025-11-21, version 5.3.2* I’ve tried them all but this is the only one I come back to. ### 5/5 — Night sky *2024-11-06, version 5.3.2* Very interesting ### 5/5 — So simple and effective *2024-05-16, version 5.3.2* This is probably one of the oldest apps on my iPhone comes in so handy.
