Great App - Shame about the moon
This is a great app, would have given 5* however the moon seems to be 1/2 a orbit out on the Orrery view ie when it is a full moon in reality the moon is showing between the earth and sun (new moon) hope this big is fixed soon
Do not buy.
Rubbish. I got more info looking up at a cloudy sky than I did from this useless app.
Excellent quick and easy reference for planetary viewing
This is a great app for quickly seeing what solar system objects are observable in the next couple of days. Much easier to use than the full planetarium apps. Great for urban stargazers who have too much light pollution for deep sky objects. Being able to see the target's elevation and progress through the sky is very useful for planning observation.
Highly recommended.

A Shame Because a Great App :-(
This was working fine on my 2g ipod touch ios 4.2.1 but is now no longer compatible :-(
I plan to buy the new 5g touch in Sept, and hopefully the app will work on that.

simple and fast but...it's glitched.
...it does Not save your location.
it always wants to geo locate you, bummer.

A nice app, but limited usefulness.
A nice app if all you want to know is what is up in the sky and roughly where it is. But there are better apps available, some of which are free. The graphics here are low resolution, which is somewhat annoying.
Simple yet elegant
Easy to use, very intuitive. Graphics could be sharper. Would like to be able to add other objects, not just planets.
Way cool :-)
Simple and to the point, with a really nice animation of sky objects.
Great!
No messing around, this app launches in seconds and does exactly what it promises to do! For 59p I didn't even hesitate and looking back, I have no regrets!
Good start
A good start. Has potential. I have had problems with it not working as advertised, but app assistance was great. An update will likely correct shortcomings.
Nice
So simple, yet so effective and useful. And the screen is way cool. Great app!
Terrible...
Why isn't this App part if Pocket Universe, it's pointless, the developer is obviously trying to boost poor sales of Pocket Universe and make a quick buck out of this app that doesn't really do anything, it doesn't even show you where the planets are, just says "it's up"! And you want people to PAY for this...? Make this free, that's all it's worth.. It doesn't do anything worth a cent...

Just what I expect from the maker of Pocket Universe
This app is wonderful and just as great as Pocket Universe. I really like it that it opens Pocket Universe when you tap on a planet. The only thing I don't like is that it is that the graphics are not retina-ready....yet.
Does what it says on the tin!
This is a great app! It's a really quick, reliable, visual reference guide to 'what's up' in the sky tonight... or any night. It's perfect for helping me decide whether it's worth setting the telescope This little app looks great too. Not that I would have expected any less from the creator of Pocket Universe.

Another great astronomy app
I have a big 10" dob and it a pain to drag it outside just to find out what I want to see is not there..this app just saved me years of back pain!! Thanks again CraigDesign!!!
Neat
Great app for quickly identifying what planets are visible, or will be visible at a certain time of day.
