crappy-- freezes constantly
RRRUUURRR
Don't bother with this one, you'll spend most of your time waiting for it to calibrate or even open its basic functions.
Won't iInstall

The latest version I can't reinstall on my iPad. I loved it when it worked. But save some frustration until this release actually works. Testing is a good idea.
This is actually a really cool app

I've been using this app for a while and I have to say, I don't see why it garners such negative reviews. It works fabulously for me. Sure, in past versions it had its issues, but I use this app a lot, especially in the summer, and I haven't had any crashes or anything at all in recent memory. Just last night I used it to view the Space Station flying over my house, and while I was at it I was easily able to identify Mars, Jupiter, and a very faint Saturn as well. Very cool!! On my iPhone and iPad it is able to tell, from the way I'm holding my phone and I guess my GPS location and stuff, what I'm looking at when I'm holding my phone up to the sky, and it's been correct every time whenever I've used it recently. The graphics and visuals are very pretty, too, and I appreciate the info given on objects in the sky. It's so fascinating to read the history behind, say, an old Soviet satellite that's still in orbit. All in all I have no issues with this app whatsoever and it's fun locating the planets and stars above me at night. I also have their Mac version on my laptop and it's nice having it as a reference there too. I appreciate it when devs make their apps available cross platform.
App gone too crap
~tin man~
I used this app on a regular basis a year or so ago. We watched the ISS fly over several times. But, now trying too show friends how too use the app, it's just about as un-user friendly and impossible too use. It's even a memory hog.... Give me the option too turn off all the crap you added. I'm wishing I never paid for this..... Junk!
Great app; intro constellation lovers

I think this is a fun accurate app to play around with it was very helpful for me when I was simultaneously trying to line up my telescope.
Still a bit buggy

I've always enjoyed this app but the last two revisions have a satellite issue. Many satellites and rocket bodies are in place while others seem to be flashing by in their orbits like a strobe.
Calibration issue

The User Guide explains how to match your device screen to the actual sky by swiping the device screen until it matches the sky. Then touch "Done". I could not find the "Done" button... ...nor could my children. I got a rough calibration by quitting the app and restarting.
Great App!

I have this app maybe for 4 or 3 years now. Every time I'm out of the night I look up this up and I'm awe how it works! I still do. But lately it has been crashing on me and it's very annoying. Please can you check why it is always crashing every after 1 min. Thank you!
