Ratings and reviews

I have been so impressed with the standard SkEye version and how helpful it has been to me for some time now. As a novice the app has helped me to progress and guide me with my 10" Dobsonian telescope. The standard version has worked so well for me I really wanted to support the developer and purchased the Pro version. I'm certain the Pro version will continue to help me expand my experiences. OUTSTANDING!!!

This is a really well made app. The layout is nice and its packed with features. I paid for the full version to unlock the full catalogues. Unfortunately 3 of 4 of the targets that I was searching for weren't in the app (even after opening all of the brightness and size parameters fully). Edit: I was just outside using this app and a thought occurred to me. What if we could manually input a set of R.A. and Declination values to pushto? This way, if an object were missing from the catalog, we could still use the app to align to it.

Great app. The frequent updates continually improve functionality. I use other apps for planning observing sessions but SkEye is my goto app for a quick scan of the night sky. The recent addition listing interesting objects to observe is really useful. Highly recommended.
