Reviews

Version no bueno
-=Someone=-

Puts in more obtrusive ads, seems to eliminate viewing pictures in landscape mode. Not very pleased with this version.


LANDSCAPE!
See Ya!

Great app, but the new version forces you to portrait. Yes, I even paid the few dollars for no advertising. Thought NASA was funded by tax dollars? Give us back the option to go landscape (pleas). Heck, most images are landscape.


Update is beyond terrible
Mike4AU

Irritating ads, in-app purchases and no landscape mode. A formerly great app is now a scamming ap!


Hate this update!!!
Ed Wong

I really enjoyed the previous version of this app. This latest update is not good at all. Who in there right mind would think that not having landscape mode is acceptable for an app that used to have it and contains photos that are formatted in landscape. Please fix this!!!!

Latest update giant step backward. Where is landscape? Very disappointed with app that was a favorite.


Why the changes
Q'sCafe

This app has gone from great to awful. Won't rotate into landscape mode anymore. I had to pay to get rid of ads. Why do this, it just drives people away. Maybe that is what they want to help cut costs as NASA.


Landscape

I don't mind the adverts--and the tiny fee to remove them. But landscape mode is pretty important for making good use of available pixels.


I used to love you, APOD

I echo other reviewers. No landscape mode?! obnoxious ads from a NASA app?


Where did Landscape mode go?
JoeSchmedely

Given that phones an tablets have longer screens than wide, it is best to view pictures taken horizontally in landscape mode. Why did the latest version of APOD remove this capability?


Latest Update
Sky12&$

Add me to the list. The latest update IS terrible. Lack of landscape is the most obvious blunder. Looking forward to an update FIX!
