Very effective and useful views of the celestial bodies. Especialy like the transparent earth views allowing viewing of sky below the horizons. I'd give the app a rare five stars if could make the fonts on the map larger for my aging eyes. Thanks for your reply. I found the setting...great! Heres the extra star (hah hah, not enough stars in the universe? :-) )

Thanks Nick! Clearly I need to make the typeface in the settings bigger!

EDITED:Thank you, I figured it out! I have a RFID blocking wallet case on my phone. I removed it & recalibrated my compass and everything is perfect. I will leave my previous comments up so maybe it can help others troubleshoot. I used to love this app. I haven't used it in quite a while. It is no functioning properly. It's not aut tracking like it used to. Please fix it. Or I'll have to uninstall it.

Ah! That's really interesting and makes total sense. I hadn't heard of this issue before, but I'll add it to our troubleshooting docs as a possibility. Thanks for taking the time to share the fix.

this is my favourite app that I absolutely have to tell everybody about it and make them stay up late to watch the magick of the stars with me :) - "re leboga mabogo" - 'thank the hands!" for all of your work, this is such a lovely app and has enabled me to explore the stars I saw as a kid with the tech we have today. absolutely the best little app ever!
