Thank You!
I’ve been looking for something help see NEOWISE with my family and came across your simple to use app and although it’s been too cloudy everyday here we are all hoping to get a glimpse. This app does the job perfectly and big thanks to the developer for making it easy and free. With luck my daughter can see it before it goes away for 6000+ years! Can’t say enough about the generosity of this developer. Kudos my friend!

Not working.
Either this app doesn’t work, or I completely fail to see how to use it. It sounds simple, but no amount of poking, prodding, or “simply holding it up to the sky” priduced any useful information. Edit: The developer contacted me and told me how to be sure my compass was turned on, and now it works. Or, at least it would, if it wasn’t cloudy.

Thanks for sharing this with us!
Great app! So happy I found this. So much so that this is the first time I have ever taken the time to write a review for an app. I was able to find it with ease after verifying my settings. I needed to turn on the Compass Calibration in Location Services just like the info icon in the app says to check. Thanks!
