Ratings and Reviews
Perfect for Astronomy
I’m using this app for both entertainment and when I’m using my telescope. Great app and great features! I recommend it! 5/5
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us and the community. Happy stargazing!)
Nice but Not working
This is a very nice application (if it works). I downloaded the app yesterday on my iPhone X and I liked it so much that I bought the full version in an instant. Unfortunately the next day it stopped working. For some reason the app won't recognize the location you are at and thus will not start. It is stuck on title screen. I tried to reinstall it but to no avail. I even tried to set the location manually (at startup) but nothing. I tried to install it to my iPad but the app simply won't start. I tried to search the internet only to find out that it has happened before. I feel that I payed for nothing... Too bad for such a nice app...
Developer Response ,
Our apologies for the problems with the app. We are currently working to fix them in the nearest future.
Thank you!
If you’re passionate about astronomy or you just like stargazing, this is the best app. Thank you for your work. I really appreciate it.
