Ratings and reviews

I love the app and use it all the time for moon shots, but the recent zoom behavior is frustrating. Now, when pressing +/- zoom, the view jumps away from the selected point instead of staying centered, as it did before. For photographers who rely on precise framing, this makes planning much harder. Please consider restoring the previous zoom behavior or adding an option to keep the zoom anchored to the selected point.

very good, easy to use, exceptional for predicting ambient conditions for night flying with NVG's.

This app is quite useful to find out if and where the moon should be visible at any given time and date, including information about azimuth, altitude, phase, moonrise and moonset, and culmination. This app would be even more useful if there were a possibility to search in the reverse direction, i.e. looking for times and dates that satisfy a set of conditions. Example: When can I see a full moon with an azimuth between 30° and 120° at an altitude of at least 30°? That would be outstanding.
