Caelo

Your sky's quiet lookout — honest, even when it's "not tonight." Caelo knows your sky because you mapped it: the trees, the fence line, the roof next door, whatever actually stands between you and a clear shot of the night sky. Caelo Pro puts that horizon to work everywhere it matters. Open your Observing Plan and every recommendation already accounts for your yard. Not a generic transit time off a star chart, but the real window: when a target clears your roof, and when it drops behind next door's oak tree. A flat-horizon planner can't do that. Pro plans your night, not a generic one. Pro also shows you further ahead: This Week lays out seven nights of visibility at a glance, and This Year shows the whole season a target climbs through your sky, so you can plan around months instead of guessing at them. Caelo would rather tell you "not tonight" than send you out for nothing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tempest Console at none against Caelo's 4. Tempest Console also leads on device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
