Ratings and reviews

I'm honestly surprised at how smooth the app runs, how easy it is to navigate around, and how good it looks. I like to keep up with new technologies and enjoy good photos, which previously I used the nasa gov website for, and this app has really taken that baton and run with it. Very well done. I see other reviews mentioning the video player - I have not used this for more than the livestream for the Bennu sample collection, so I honestly can't speak to that.

I was wondering why my background hadn't changed in a while, seems they removed the feature in the last update. Bummer. Edit: reduced from two stars. A bug exists where once a notification has been turned on, it cannot be turned off. Uninstalled app because it serves no purpose any more and sends needless notifications.

I hate to give this a negative review, but the NASA+ experience is really bad on mobile. The content is BRILLIANT, but the way it's presented is unusable. Instead of a native video player, they've made a window to display the desktop browser player, but the video res is bigger and wider than the window, so a good part of the image and access to the controls is cut off. Worse, there is no way to watch full screen and no Android TV support. 🙁 I'd easily give this 5 stars if they can fix all that.
