Starlight Clock vs Astro Conditions

This is a digital and analog clock application with a starry sky motif. The constellation changes every hour. You can also set events in which locomotives appear at 10, 15, 20, 30, and 60 minute intervals. Sometimes shooting stars also stream. ***** The time text, analog clock, and constellations can be moved with the fingers. The analog clock and constellations can be zoomed in and out with two fingers. Seconds can also be displayed. Touching the time character switches to setting mode. The date and time can be changed to various formats by touching it in the setting mode. The display can be switched between 12-hour and 24-hour formats. Screen rotation in portrait and landscape orientation is also supported. By pressing buttons such as "2X" and "3X," the font size can be adjusted in steps. You can choose from 24 different constellations. The order of the constellations can be set to change randomly as well as in a predetermined order. The time signal can be set to one of 79 different tones.

Astro Conditions — Know when, where, and what to observe. Plan better nights under the stars. Astro Conditions combines stargazing weather, darkness, Moon conditions, modeled light pollution, nearby observing locations, equipment guidance, and recommended celestial targets in one private, ad-free app. See whether tonight is worth going out, find a better place to observe, and discover what will be visible—from planets and double stars to clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. • Observing Quality and Night Conditions scores from 0 to 100 • Offline modeled light pollution for more location-aware planning • Best Targets for your location, night, and equipment • Nearby areas ranked for better observing conditions • No account, subscription, or advertising NIGHT CONDITIONS & OBSERVING QUALITY Night Conditions combines clouds, seeing, transparency, fog risk, wind, moonlight, and the useful nighttime window. Observing Quality builds on those conditions and accounts for modeled light pollution when available, giving you a more realistic picture of your selected location. • Early- and late-night trends • Three-day forecast • Hourly clouds, visibility, humidity, wind, and temperature • Seeing estimates using temperature stability and upper-atmosphere wind • Transparency estimates using cloud layers and visibility BEST TARGETS Explore recommended objects from a curated catalog for your selected location and night. Add binoculars, visual telescopes, or Smart/EAA telescopes, then choose what you plan to use. You can also choose Naked Eye. • See how well each target matches your equipment • Find the best observing time, direction, and altitude • Understand how weather, darkness, moonlight, and visibility affect the view • Get Finding Tips, equipment guidance, and Observing Notes • Browse offline reference images for many targets • Choose from Easy, Standard, and Challenge observations MY EQUIPMENT • Save binoculars, visual telescopes, and Smart/EAA telescopes • Select one or more instruments for each session FIELD MODE Use a dim red appearance at the telescope to help preserve night vision.
