Great idea. Poor execution. – PhotoPills Review

I used to love this app for a lot of things, until I tried using the AR feature. After recalibrating it with the sun multiple times, it still could not figure out which direction I was looking. I finally got it to where I could trust it by dialing it in with an actual compass. I then composed the shot and lined up for the moonrise. A shot I had been meticulously planning for sometime. According to the Moon AR, I was right on target... Not! The moon rose about 60° to my right, by the time I had recomposed, not only did I lose my composition, but I missed the shot entirely. Not reliable. At all. Huge disappointment.
