Awful by anonymThis was my go to application in recent years. Ever since I acquired the galaxy nexus a year ago and the nexus 7 in the past month, this app has failed to work correctly. The GPS and scanning is completely unresponsive. I have tried this app on 2 different galaxy nexus devices as well. Very unfortunate, I really enjoyed this app. I hope it can be fixed 1/5
Skymaps by anonymThis app doesn't work correctly on my ZTE tablet: the horizon appears on a vertical position and consequently I see the sky at a 90 degree angle. 3/5
The app I wanted but....... by anonymThe screen keeps shaking around and theres some spots I cant see because it wont turn to it and it was in auto and when I searched the big dipper I found one of those invisible walls please fix I have a Samsung galaxy tab 3 2/5
by anonymWorks pretty well. Kind of sensitive so it's a little hard to keep it from being shaky. It would also be nice if you could tap on an object and get information regarding it. Overall, Great App. 4/5
SkyMap by anonymI've spent far too long sat in the garden after dark holding my phone up to the sky. Only then does it dawn on you how addictive this app is. Would like to know where the ISS is and could it be possible to long clic something and get an image from jpl / nasa? 5/5
by anonymGoogle Maps has been trying to update for days an it can't because it keeps saying , not CERTIFIED!!! (Please fix this error) 1/5
Doesn't work by anonymThis really doesn't work. I've kept it in case an update will fix it, but it will show me the same stars & horizons when I point opposite directions. Am I missing something? 2/5
Package not signed by anonymUpdate fails on G2 with error "Package not signed." It's been like this for a month. Seriously, Google, you can't patch your own device? 1/5
Was once a good app by anonymI loved this app on all of my phones up untill now. Upgraded to the Galaxy Note 3 and now this app is junk on this phone. Always points south no matter which direction you are facing. Gps turned on or off has no effect on this. As long as what you are looking for is in the southern sky the this app almost works. 1/5
Gem of an app! by anonymGreat way to rediscover the night sky!! BTW, it started working better on my Nexus 7 after I let it use GPS for location in Settings. Otherwise it uses wifi and gets confused. 5/5
Great program! by anonymThis works just great! For anyone having problems with the map pointing in the wrong direction, you just need to calibrate your gyroscope - hold the device out flat, and then wave it in an up-down figure 8 pattern a few times. It would be nice if it had tracking for artificial objects - ISS & satellites. 4/5
Skyriffic! by anonymOverall works fine on my Nexus 7, occasional glitches are solved by restarting the tablet (I think the sensors go wonky sometimes). A great free way to easily see what you're looking at in the sky. 4/5
Very accurate by anonymI came across this app by accident. Its fantastic, it has got me back into astronomy. I was able to identify mars venus saturn jupiter and many stars for the first time. All I need now is a telescope. The app was pointing about 30° off its target and I couldn't figure out why. When I enabled the gps in the settings instead of using the phone network, it was dead on. 5/5
Enough! by anonymIt might b amusing 4 some ppl. But I have absolutely no use 4 it. It needs 2 stop magically switching 2 auto update I don't want it 1/5
Doesn't work by anonymCan't find the plough or even the moon when I can see them clearly. And the picture jumps too much. Such a shame cos I would love an app that shows the constellations 1/5
Doesn't work on phones without compass by anonymStill 5 stars though. Worked on my old phone. Wish I looked at my phone's specs more carefully... HTC explorer. Other phones without compass - HTC Desire C, Sony Xperia pro 5/5
Installed on a HTC Sensation/T-Mobile by anonymSeems to have issues with correct orientation of Moon and Sun. Tried it out for first time last night and when looking North the moon was in the view but was actually behind me. I probably need to experiment with settings and really see if it's me, the phone or the APP. Rate it a 3 for now. 3/5
Not working on nexus 7 by anonymI used tot like this app. But it doesn't work correctly on the nexus 7. It seems like it mixes up the gyroscope coordinates. (Up/down is sideways, etc). 4/5
Doesn't work on my new phone by anonymI've lived this app on my last two phones, but I just upgraded to the Galaxy Note 3, and it doesn't work at all. No matter where I aim it, it shows me either the western horizon, the north pole, or the south pole. Not happy about that. 1/5
Um.... by anonymThis thing is so far off it's not even funny. Is there any way to calibrate this app? Looking for orion has me pointing below the northern horizon when I can clearly see it just above the western horizon. 2/5
