Ratings and reviews

I am frustrated to say that app crashes constantly with my S9+ on Android 8. If you disable double-tap to setting, earth stops rotating. Uninstalled in matter of minutes. But still, good starting point. That's the reason for 3 stars.

Simple rotating earth with fine detail. It's what I wanted without all the extra gimmicks. Ads were annoying. Unsettling to see the app permissions say "Full network access" and uninstalled.

Weather (clouds) don't update. 1G memory usage is a lot as it slows down phone. Removed it.
