I’m 57 and remember the days of manually searching for objects in my telescope. Being able to select an object and hit ‘Go To’ is just awesome.

Awesome! Except?

Alaskaman 1963

This app is great except that every time I go to use it, if I haven’t used it for a week the app won’t open and I have to delete it and download again. I then must re-enter all my scope data. What a hassle huh? A real short coming for such a well thought out app. Still, it beats using the controller that came with my scope, especially in the field and, in cold weather. If not for that I would give 5 stars, maybe they’ll fix it. Addendum, it appears I may be mistaken about having to reload my equipment data. I know I had to the first time I deleted the app but in subsequent deletes I discovered that my equipment data and observer lists were still there. They must store that elsewhere on the smart phone. That being the case I’m changing my rating to 5 stars despite the glitch. To the developer, you requested specific information but provided a link to your support community without any way to reach you. It’s version 6.7.6.2 , when I touch the icon to open the app the opening page displays momentarily then quits and returns to my phones Home Screen. That’s all I can tell you. Am using iPhone 8 with automatic iOS updates.


Excellent resource

Such an awesome resource. Fully customizable. I use this app everyday.


PGC purchase won’t load

Love this app but my PGC in app purchase won’t load. The money going to Sky Safari didn’t seem to be a problem? I looked in the forum and other people have had the exact same problem last year. Can you guys please fix?


Nice but buggy

This is a nice program as I have used this title since the very first version came out. Just beware of purchasing the ‘add ons’ as they sometimes do not work and you’re out the money. Not a lot but frustrating nonetheless. In particular don’t waste your money on the HR Diagram. You’ll never see it show up but you will see settings for it. Buggy to say the least.


Hooked

This is the single best app that I have ever used! I love it.


Not user friendly AT ALL

Very difficult to use...


Layout bug iPhone X (2017) and later (also support)

WT9T

Search for a comet to get you to the screen I'm talking about. Try tapping the (i) button at lower right. You can't, because you laid it out against "Superview" (screen edge) instead of "Safe Area" (so it isn't blocked by the swipe-up-to-exit bar). Easy fix. I wonder if the last row of the table has the same bug. I TRIED to report this to SimC's support forum, but with both Safari and Firefox on iOS 13 the site balks over some kind of cookie voodoo I don't run into anywhere else. SimC doesn't make it easy to do it any favors.
