Great piece of application if you are a star gazerThis is for people who are interested in astronomy - the stars, the planets, the constellations etc. It helped me learn a lot about a few stars and constellations. I have been seeing Jupiter most of the days in the sky, but before using this app, I thought it was just a star. The brightness of the stars that you see on your screen is proportional to as seen in the sky. Even the shape of the moon changes accordingly. Overall this is much much better than google sky map. The only two cons of this app as per me are, a - when you minimize and open again, it actually starts from beginning and loading takes a bit of time (around 5-10 secs in galaxy s2). b - orientation problem. When you hold it horizontal facing the sky it is unable to stick to one orientation. It keeps rotating. So when you need to study a star right up in the sky, it is a bit difficult. Hope they introduce fixed orientations, then I will give 5 stars.

BuggyIt would be great if it worked for more than 3 minutes before shutting your phone down.

PatI like the app, tho it points about 60 to the right of the target, its kind of better that way you don't have an obstructed view of the stars.

Waste of moneyI'd like to love this app, really. I'm an undergrad astrophysicist and I love recreational astronomy. However, this app is severely buggy. It crashes my phone constantly, freezes, and no matter what I do, it never points in the right direction.

No internet pleaseToday FB, tomorrow ads. I'll stick to no internet version, because IMO this app should be offline only.

Stupid...It's a shame that because of the anti piracy DRM it doesn't work 50% of the time... when you are out at the mountaintop and want to use your app who's saying "Fu** you!" it's really irritating... Honteux que le DRM anti-piratage rend l'application inutile 50% du temps... quand vous sortez l'appli en arrivant au sommet de la montagne et qu'elle ne vous dit que "Casse toi et va acheter cette application !", c'est trs trs (c)nervant...

Fun appNot sure why ppl give a one star over network issues. That has nothing to do with the app.

Felt the app was a bit squirrelly. Moved all over the screen even when I was holding very still. Liked the graphics. Very nice.

Stopped workingIt was OK, but now it says that I am supposed to buy the app again. Maybe because I am roaming and I don't have a data connection.

Looks pretty but basic compared to Vortex Planetarium or the SkySafari apps. Hard to recommend this over Skeye or Google Sky Map which are free.

Hopeless on a low spec phone Huwaei 840. Eats space and CPU. Prettier than Google Star Maps but nowhere near as good. Uninstalling.

Uninstalled itselfCan someone tell me why this app decided to uninstall itself? I also ask ehy does this need Facebook integration? I hate Facebook, it's pointless and should be shutdown!

Pretty, but. ..Disorienting. Noticed the Milky Way would spin to different angle with slight change in Tablet position. I'll keep it installed anyway.

Facebook & twitter??Why does a star chart app need Facebook and Twitter integration? Sticking with the old version that doesn't need internet permission.
