Ratings and reviews

Here I stand, looking right at the little dipper, in the clear cloudless nova scotia country sky and this app couldn't pick out even the most rudimentary constellation. If you're located somewhere where you can't physically see the stars yourself, this ap will show you an accurate map of the sky, however it will not show the actual location of those actual stars if that's what you are looking for.

Useful app. It gives you the current star/constellation, moon, and sun positions at your exact GPS position, plus it let's you customize it for different locations and times, so that you can see what the sky will look like later. Helped me to find where the moon would later be for the lunar eclipse.

A hidden gem among the other star apps. I loved mostly its support for local multi language star names especially Arabic. One thing I still couldn't manage to do is opening this app on the website form from pc or mobile. I followed your example in the about section but no success.
