    Use SkyView, which is free and much better. Unfortunately you can’t get a refund with apps. Buyer beware.
  • Greatest App

    You're going to love it. The adjustments are phenomenal! There's a slide bar to adjust the density of all the stars to see. What that means is you get to blow your mind of all the stars there are mapped, (omg!!!) or you can thin out the ones further away and see what's right in front of you for less confusion...But there's nothing confusing about this app! There's another slide bar for the time clock you can free wheel and see satellites and stars move in their as is orbits. Truly a visual to be seen!! Day or night, see how to navigate... There's extra info on stars and satellites when you touch click them. Get your kids on this app ASAP! Thank you to all the developers as many times as there are stars, I love this app.
