✦ Star Walk's mobile observatory also gives astronomy facts and daily stats like sunrise and sunset times, visible planets, moon phases and much more. You won't need astronomy books and atlases.

Ads make it impossible to use! Every time I closed a menu I have to sit through an ad, which is frustrating and ruins the experience. uninstalling. *edit I opened the menu didn't find the setting I was looking for and closed it. AD. Went to a different menu to see if it was the one needed, closed it. Another ad. There were less than 30 seconds of looking through the menu options. Ads are also bright and have sound,which is disruptive for night time use. ZERO STARS

We believe that the ads frequecy is exaggerated, but unfortunately, we can not remove ads, as this is a source of of revenue that allows to support Star Walk. But you can easily do that from the add-on content section of the app, by starting the free 7-days trial.

The app works well, it isn't buggy or broken, but it has ads to help pay the people working on it, which isn't my issue. My issue is that back in 2016 I paid for the full version before a plan was introduced. a few years of not using it, I went to look at some stars last night, was greeted with a payment plan system. So glad to see the full version I bought became a subscription service. After that I cannot recommend this app but I won't give them a 1 star because the app work well despite ads.

AWESOME APP! This app is amazing. You can touch an object, star, planet, satellite and an info button will appear at the bottom. Touch that and it tells you all about the item with additional photos etc. The background music just takes you away while you explore the cosmos from the comfort of your chair. I haven't gone outside yet with this but plan on it. I'm sure it will help me find items in the night sky.
