Works perfect as long as your phone has the ability to be a compass. Really cool features for finding things and even shows stuff in the past and future. Looking around with the phone matches up almost spot on. I would like to be able to tap on objects and get some information on them, that would be pretty cool.

Great app for novices and experienced star gazers. Helps with locating stars, constellations, meteor showers, planets and more. Has a time travel function to see the night sky on different dates and the search function is perfect in guiding you to find a certain star or planet. Great app highly recommended.

Wanted to see Saturn in the night sky so I turned off everything but planets and put Saturn into the search bar. It had me spinning in circles. once i finally had it in the circle, it took off in another direction. Tried to calibrate, no go. Went to something calld diagnostic just to see my position scrolling around the globe while I'm sitting still. Uninstalled, reinstalled, same thing. On a Note9. Never had a problem with using compass, navigation, or maps. Just a problem using sky map

Very good, I love looking at this to find planets in the night sky. However I have always had trouble with the default mode because the map wouldn't move with my phone. I figured out that my phone doesn't have a gyro and I have a solution to others out there with the same issue. First, open the app, then once you're in the map, tap the three dots at the top right corner. then you click 'Sensor Settings' then you click 'disable Gyroscope' And it's that simple! Hope this helps.

This app used to be such a great app. It worked perfectly in the past but from last week it is showing wrong directions. When I looked upon the sun which was setting on west, it is showing the position of the sun to-be upright which is freaking madness. I don't know what happened to this app please fix it.

I really like the way Sky map is set up, the options are great, but I have a confusing issue (solved). You were right, Sky map didn't know my lat and long, I played with the settings and it's right on point now, thank you for your help. The constellations seem to be rotated out of alignment. As an example, Cassiopeia should be almost directly over head given where I live and the time of year, but the app reports it on the Northeastern horizon instead, even when I use search.
