It will become your interactive guide to the night sky, following your every movement in real-time and allowing you to explore over 200, 000 celestial bodies with extensive information. ***Over 10 million users! Winner of Apple Design Award 2010*** “Star Walk is a remarkably in-depth and detailed astronomy app. There's so much you can do with this app” - Common sense media “Star Walk is the best stargazing application I have come across for the iPhone. Many of the features found within the application cannot be found in any others! This is one of the best developed and executed applications I have seen to hit the app store.” - iMore “This app brings the old paper star chart into the smartphone age, and makes exploring the night sky easily accessible to everyone.” - Soggy Astronomer Duran Duran's keyboard Nick Rhodes mentions Star Walk as his favourite app: “It’s brilliant, and if you’re ever somewhere with a clear sky and no light pollution, it’s a revelation. It’s beautifully designed and makes clever use of the available technology. I’m fascinated by astronomy, but even if you’re not, give this a go.” Key features: • Night sky map with thousands of stars, constellations and other sky objects. • Real-time tracking of celestial bodies. • Augmented reality sky view. • Deep sky objects to explore in detail. • Night mode. • Extensive information about all sky objects. • The ability to travel in time with “Time machine” • Astronomical calendar with various celestial events. • Stunning space pictures in “Picture of the Day”. • “Sky Live” section with info about the moon phases, the amount of daylight, the visibility of the planets, etc. Astronomical calendar, deep space objects, meteor showers, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and satellites are available through the STAR WALK PLUS subscription. ‣ Launch the app and point your device at the night sky - you'll see the stars, planets, satellites, and constellations in their proper place from your location. As you move your device, the star map updates in real time.* ‣ Every object you tap has an (i) next to its name, tap it to access some information. ‣ A scale on right is the “Time machine”, slide it to explore the map of the night sky of tomorrow or years ago. ‣ A calendar of celestial events will make sure you never miss anything interesting. ‣ Tap Augmented Reality icon in the upper right corner to add the image from your camera to your sky view. ‣ Use Night Mode to go easy on your eyes and preserve night vision when exploring the Universe. ‣ Star Walk is your personal planetarium.

  • Great app except for garbage displayed

    The app works well except for certain garbage that shows up around holidays. Would probably be five stars except for an annoying animation showing up that can't be turned off.

    When I first purchased Starwalk years ago, it was a wonderful app. I THOUGHT I’d purchased access for life. Lately, however, the developers have asked for users to pay a subscription fee. It might be worth it for new users but I personally feel that original purchasers should be grandfathered in. The pop ups demanding subscriptions ruin the experience.

    This application won’t let you look at the sky and stars there your camera live. I don’t recommend this application. I tried to see the Christmas Star. They should refund my money!!

    I do not understand why the app does not work on my phone. iPhone XR. I could not leave the app to go back to my main screen. If I would swipe up to get the app back to my main screen, it started a commercial! And I paid $4.99 for this. I had to literally restart my phone after powering it down every time I used the app just to get it to go back to my home screen. I have deleted the app permanently.
  • The app.

    I love star walk. I’ve had it since 2011 and it’s the best app I’ve used for finding stars and constellations. I’ve never had any issues and the developers are GENIUSES! Thank you! Something I love about the app is you can search for constellations and stars which is helpful because of the Geminid shower happening in these coming days. Thanks to star walk for all the amazing technology you provide us with!
  • Insane amount of ads

    Had it open for a minute or two only to try to look at the stars and was hit with three ads. Ridiculous. Deleting this app immediately.
  • Dark mode widget unreadable

    Overall very good the widgets typeface is still black in dark mode on iPadOS, making it unreadable, also after changing the time in the app, to see a future event, it’s been difficult to reset it to sync with the iPad
