Use to be good, not so much anymore
I have had this app for years, and it use to be dead on. Now I can aim at the moon and it will be way off on the app from where I am pointing. No longer worth keeping this app if it doesn’t even show correct positioning of anything in the sky.

Waste of time and money
The free version doesn’t even show a quarter of the constellations. Very disappointing.
- ★★★★★Dustystang
Good
I use the free version and have for several years. I recommend it. Best constellation app I have found.
- ★★★★★Ripleywvu
Weird lately
The app backwards on my iPad, but fine on my phone. I’m facing south, but the app says I’m facing north. Eastern USA.

Not accurate
I love this app because I can find out what planets are where but when I point up to the sky, nothing is where they are, if that makes any sense
