    I have been trying to get this app to work, and it just doesn’t work. You can’t point it at different things you see in the sky. .

    Okay out of all the stargazing apps I have tried this takes top cake. It is AMAZING! And the fact you don’t get ads OR popups like whaaat? It’s too good I’ve been sharing the app with everyone I know even my teacher. Can’t recommend this app enough! Never been able to get that music function working but it’s still amazing without it!!
  • The alignment was way off

    After a while the alignment of the planets were not even close to the target circle. I have an older iphone with version 15…. Cannot update past that IOS. So I deleted the app thinking if I downloaded it again it would correct the problem. Now the only version available has to have iOS 16. So I had to just dump it. As the only version available is not compatible. Used to use it in elementary science class. Kinda sad but will look for another app.
  • Hard to read

    Love the app, but why is it so hard to read the names of the objects? The font is very small, and it has poor contrast against most backgrounds in augmented reality mode. It is really virtually illegible most of the time. It seems like it would be an easy fix to just make the font somewhat larger and add some color contrast behind the typeface. If the app developers are listening, pretty please?
  • Ok maybe...

    First off I'm not trying to give bad advice. This game is a little off. The moon is sometimes full when it's not I can't find all the constellations I spent hours and hours just looking around whom ever says it's not fun is wrong. It's a very fun game maybe not 100% accurate Jupiter and the moon right next to each other! Haha but I would suggest this game. He just want baby Naruto for accuracy game, but just to look around this solar system.

    Love the Application. Use it from time to time to get more information on what I am looking at above. Occasionally, my son and I walk around the neighborhood and it is so much fun watching him explore the universe. It makes the moon not that far away.
