Version 10.7.1
AudioFamilyLove itI am thrilled with how simple Star Guide is to use the very first time you try it!! I just opened the Star Guide App, noticed some bright Stars or Planets, etc, and simply tapped on the brightest object in the sky- I head a pleasant “chime” sound immediately and the name of the object immediately appeared as Venus. Cool! Also- every single inconspicuous little object in space that I tapped on immediately chimed and was identified! Star Guide App is much easier to use and understand than the Night Sky App which is an awesomely powerful and a beautiful App; but Star Guide is MUCH easier to use for first time users like children and adult’s who are just beginning their knowledge quest and simply want to know; “What is THAT up there in the sky?? That one… the one that’s kinda bluish, and seems to twinkle so brightly!! After playing around some more with the Star Guide App, there is so MUCH MORE information available in the App if you just choose what you would like to ADD in the settings menu! Constellations? No problem. And much more to see if you select your preferences in the menu as you learn! I love it and you will too! JW- Des Moines, Iowa

Love itNetworkI Love looking at the sky, stars, clouds, etc. Found Sky Guide. Not only do I get to follow the stars, constellations, moon, sun, planets, comets, satellites, but I can go forward in time, backward in time, there is information about everything that is listed in the sky in the App and I keep finding more ways to use this app. I just LOVE Sky Guide. My friends and neighbors (most of who don't have computers nor internet connections, as I live in a village with mostly poor farmers) come over to look with me. They love knowing what is that bright star in the sky, what is the planet, etc... It is highly Educational and worth the money. And it works with the wifi off. Best. Best. Best! I fully suggest this App for a great hands on course in basic Astronomy. 5 Stars!!! And now with SUPERMASSIVE as an option, it just continues to blow my mind. Seeing the Galaxies , Nebulas, Planets up close is breathtaking. This app was definitely made by people who Love their subject. And I Love this app. It continues to be Amazing! Amazing!

AddictingCameraLocationWaitingThis app is the best thing ever. It’s so powerful and customizable. I can choose exactly what I want to see. I can spend hours at a time reading the articles about the celestial objects. I normally don’t like spending money on things I don’t need, but this is something I have no doubts about subscribing to. The free app alone is incredible, and probably everything that a simple curious person looking at the stars would need. And, for hobbyists like myself, the plus and pro subscriptions are absolutely worth every penny. I can actually calculate exactly what my imaging quality will be based off of my specific telescope, eyepiece, camera, and location. There’s so many more features, but that’s just one that is rather thrilling to me. I have learned so much from here and I have only scratched the surface of what this app has to offer. I will definitely be using this app for a long time to come.
