So here's my take on SkySafari 7 Plus. I've tested a bunch of astronomy apps and this one's pretty much the best in my opinion. The level of detail and features is impressive, like being able to control your telescope and see exactly what's happening in the sky. The graphics are great and it runs smoothly even on my older phone. My only real complaint is that the initial setup takes some time to figure out, but once you get the hang of it, it's super powerful.

Description

I’ve been using SkySafari 7 Plus for a couple months now. It’s basically a full-featured space simulator that lets you explore the night sky in crazy detail. Pretty solid app if you’re into astronomy and stargazing.

Here’s what you can do: you can control your telescope and see the stars, planets, and other celestial objects in real-time. There’s also a cool Events Finder feature that shows you things like meteor showers, moon phases, and eclipses. Took me a while to figure that out but it’s super useful.

Look, if you’re into space and want to go beyond the basic stargazing apps, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the setup can be a bit tricky at first – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you’re a space nerd like me.

Same problem as described by Jeff Crist - app is closing whenever I scroll through the tonight screen and it has been absolutely fine up until a few days ago....

Great for locating objects a time night or day. Tons of useful information right at your fingertips. Couldn't do without it. The screenlock releasing when zooming in and out is...
