Trop dégouté

Au départ, la professeur avait conseillé ce truc et je me suis dit si c’est trop bien si en fait j’ai remarqué que c’était payant, tu pouvais rien faire sans payer vraiment à déconseiller du premier coup 😢😢.

Amateur Astronomer re-edited

I would love to use this again, but haven’t used it since past comments which I am keeping here. I’m hoping to find something in the sky that I’m looking for but so far unable to find it anywhere…a star or planet in the morning sky around 5-6 am.
(Past comment)
I used to love this app. It was free to me, but now you are asking me to subscribe to it and denying me to access the information needed to enjoy watching the night sky. Being an amateur astronomer, I enjoy watching the night sky and the stars. But since you people are now asking for money, each month, which I don’t have to spare, because of limited income, I can’t afford to enjoy what I love to do the most. Sorry you went down a peg or two since I rated this. Sky View has helped me find the stars and constellations when the sky is partially cloudy, but since Sky View updated, now I will be without such help. I wish everybody wasn’t so greedy with their apps. Something like this one should be free.

Payant et marche moins bien que sur android

Je pense que ce ne sont pas les mêmes créateurs. J’utilisais une application similaire sur Android qui fonctionnait à merveille. Et depuis mon passage sur iPhone, j’ai voulu retrouver un équivalent, je suis extrêmement déçu par cette application.

it's alright.

you have to pay for everything except to see the constellations and different images created in the sky.

Aucun intérêt sans achat.

Impossible de regarder quoi que ce soit en étant sur la version gratuite.
