Ratings and reviews

Good app, but it need some improvement like on clicking moon it should show which phase of moon it is along with "shukla" or "krishn" paksh and also in which nakshatra/rashi the moon is. This feature should be for all planets (graha).

Before directly entering into the sky map....it is better to give an brief introduction about that app...for what purpose it is....& For what we install this app...and what the contents in it... And Make that whole matter ...into various regional languages.......then this app gets very huge response than now... Superb... but illiterate's cannot understand what the inside ...happening while rotating the device ....so give brief intro...in some lang.'s like...English,Telugu,Kannada, Tamil,Malayalam....etc.,

Great app, been using since long. But automatic mode is not working correctly on my new phone. Directions are not correct and keep resetting to south wherever you rotate the phone.
