Astrosimo vs Panorama

Astrosimo helps you plan, align, and capture the night sky on iPhone. Choose the Moon, star fields, clusters, nebulae, or galaxies. Capture prepares recommended settings and displays live target alignment over the viewfinder. The catalog includes Messier objects, showpiece deep-sky targets, the Moon, and planets. Planet guidance is for locating and composition; detailed planet images require added optics. Tonight ranks phone-suitable targets using the selected night, location, weather, and moonlight. It does not recommend planets for automatic phone capture. Free includes three successful automatic captures total, recommended settings, automatic star focus, target alignment, automatic stacking with a live view, automatic gradient removal and stretch, and photos saved to Photos at up to 2200 px on the long side. Trails and Time-lapse sessions run for 5 or 10 minutes. Tonight, the Library, capture settings and an exposure histogram on every photo are included. Pro includes unlimited astrophotography and keeps capture automatic, with linear RAW stacking on supported cameras and output up to 4096 px on the long side. Manual controls are optional. Pro also adds exposure, ISO, focus with a loupe, white balance, frame count and stacking choices, optional dark frames, adjustable finishing, 16-bit TIFF export, Trails and Time-lapse sessions up to 30 minutes, and photo verification. Annual and monthly plans unlock the same features. No trial or introductory offer. Free captures use a dedicated private iCloud allowance, independent of Library or Photos deletion. Precise location is used only for live planning and alignment. Saved records use approximate location. All image processing happens on the iPhone.

See the whole place, not just a slice of it. Panorama turns your iPhone into a spherical-panorama camera. Sweep the phone around you and Panorama captures the scene in every direction — up, down, and all the way around — then stitches it into a single seamless image you can step back into anytime. Capture Follow the on-screen guide as you pan across the scene. Panorama grabs frames automatically as you cover new ground and stitches them on-device in seconds — no waiting, no upload. Relive it Open a saved panorama and look around by simply moving your phone — tilt up to the sky, turn to see behind you — or drag and pinch to explore. It feels like standing back in the room. Keep it, share it Every panorama is saved to a tidy library on your device and remembers where you took it. Share to anyone as a standard panoramic image — AirDrop it, save it to Photos, drop it in Files, or send it to a VR headset. Take it further Turn any panorama into a tiny-planet image, a flat photo of any direction, or a cinematic video flythrough — with the scene's own ambient sound if you choose to record it, and a 9:16 Story cut for Instagram. Post the 360 itself to Google Photos or Facebook and it stays interactive. Private by design Panorama has no account, no cloud, and no servers. Capture, stitching, storage, and sharing all happen on your iPhone. Nothing is collected, tracked, or uploaded — your panoramas stay yours. Capture the sunrise from your balcony, the whole living room, a mountaintop, a favorite café — and keep the entire view, forever, on your phone.
