One download for your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. We don't think you should pay twice for the same app on a bigger screen. --- What People Are Saying "Powerful and easy to use, with excellent animation and the widest zoom range." — D.Schroeder, University professor "GoSkyWatch Planetarium should not be missed regardless of whether you are a casual or hard-core fan of astronomy." — AppAdvice "I have more than 10 astronomy apps on my iPhone and this is by far the best.

I have had this app for years and nothing works better for finding out which star I’m looking at whether it’s a planet, star, or an airplane. There are also many other great features, the sun tracking I use to plan my garden. There’s also a setting labeled “Pluto is a planet” 1000/10

For an app that you have to pay for, it sure is buggy. I’ve never gotten this app to be accurate or smooth. It’s user friendly and pretty but that’s about it

Discovered this years ago and it’s still our favorite for stargazing and identifying celestial bodies. Clean, tidy, easy to use interface. Love it.

One of the first apps I installed when I got my first iPhone, and still use regularly. No fancy VR nonsense, just tells you what star that is. Still works on iOS 18 and I hope it always works. The other apps are not as functional.

This app really is elegant and easy to use. The only thing that keeps it from 5 out of 5 is the slippery clunkyness of the time and location interface. Fix that and PERHAPS icing on the cake add a geo specific horizon (solar parallax and proper motion drift? I don’t know) - THeN you have something to build another Stonehenge with! All the same - you want to be able to “see” the path of the sun under the earth at night? The realm of Osiris made “real”? There’s this app for that. Totally enjoyable and useful ecliptic positions.

アプリの解説で、画面中央に天体などを持ってくると詳細が開くような話だったので、別アプリも持っているが買ってみた。 画面中央に天体を持ってきたら、音声で簡単な解説でも入るのかと思ったら、惑星の場合に天体名を言うだけ。しかも金星が「きんぼし」、天王星が「てんのうぼし」だったりする。 さらに言えば、独自の解説は無く、ウィキペディアに繋がるボタンがあるだけ。 かなり昔からあるようだが、他のアプリに取って代わられている。 もう少し努力して欲しい。 大三角形などの説明や天体の見つけ方を説明している、プラネタリウムの簡易版なら『World Museum』がある。このアプリは箱庭の中を歩き回ってサファリパークや博物館を散策することもできる。 本アプリと同様のものなら、もちろん『Star Walk』シリーズが良い。『Star Walk 2』では星座の星の地球からの距離を含めた実際の大まかな位置関係や神話の解説も見ることができ、人工衛星も網羅されている。
