5yrs later and I still love this app

My favorite part is if you get to far out with no service (always the best stars) IT STILL WORKS! We camp for 2wks every summer up in the Big Horn Mountains in Wyoming and there is no hope of service until off of them, but this app is a camping party favorite EVERY year not to mention It is all I ever wanted growing up! As a teen I saved my mowing money for a cordless phone (pre-cellphone era) and would lay in our pasture for hours and hours all summer long with my glow in the dark constellation coffee table book and Gf on the phone, now I can just hold up my phone and know my stellar address, neighbors and man made junk, I will never look at the stars the same 10/10

Love this app.

I wish I could afford a big fancy telescope to truly show me the detail of our night sky.. until then this app is helping me learn placement in time of the night sky around me and for that, I am thankful. I can look at a constellation, pick a star and learn all about it. I can also see satellites. I think this app is a wonderful learning tool for anyone interested in our galaxy and learning what's around you. Even if you have a telescope I think it would be a great asset to locate and identify what you are looking at. It is very informational.

StarWalk Keeps me informed & shows me where to look

I’m 67 and been an amateur skywatcher all my life. I enjoy StarWalk alerts me daily to current interesting celestial events AND shows me where to look for them! It’s like having a professional astronomer available 24/7! Perhaps I’ll never recall much of all I learn, but for example I just learned some “new” facts about our Moon in the Wikipedia entry it took me to! StarWalk telling me what I can see and where to look has really enriched my skywatching every night I choose to use it! Thanks for a celestial mechanic help on my iPhone!
