    The objects on the app are significantly off from where they are seen with the naked eye even updating location. However, all these people who say it’s not working because it shows you stars when pointing at a dark room or point toward anything but the sky do not have a clear understanding of astronomy. The Earth is surrounded completely by space and therefore stars and other celestial objects all the time. You just can’t see them during the day. Or if you are standing inside.

    This app does not work on older iPhones. It used to work great on my iPhone 6s, with current updated software but now the screen is just stuck on Ursa Major, can’t calibrate or use the app at all. It does work well on my son’s newer iPhone but I wish I knew that it wouldn’t work on mine before purchasing.
  • Completely off

    The location of planets we could see with our naked eyes was completely off. And not by just a small amount!!! I'll be requesting a refund.
  • Where is the today widget

    By cant find widget
    App works great but I can’t find the today widget to add to my Home Screen. I emailed support a few days ago and haven’t gotten a response. Is it not available on iOS 14?

    This app will show the stars and constellation to wherever you point your phone to. I pointed it even to a dark room and showed me all different kind of stars. Waste of money
