Ratings and reviews

AWESOME! it inspired me to be an astrologist when I grow up! I found Saturn! 🪐 My fav planet! Love this app. I moved spots and the app didn't follow. Fix that but otherwise 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

This is an excellent app, it provides knowledge of where the planets are in an easy digestible layout. For all those confused and why it needs your location, people at different parts of the world will see the planets location differently.

My friend has something similar. Hers works so much easier. Open the app. Hold still, celestial bodies identified. This thing charges extra for that and it still is difficult to navigate.
