We have a lot of fun with this app. We like the explanations and definitions, the music and taking the rocket trips and exploring all the planets and stars.

Quick, easy fix made to overcome launch bug that would cause instantaneous crash and app now works "spectacularly" as originally before Kosmos took it under their wings. Thanks for your responsiveness !

A very good app. Not as visually busy or overly coloured as other Astronomical apps. It has a good selection of options for visual customisation. The best being the ability to select the visual distances that can be seen, and so reduce the visual clutter of celestial objects. The downside is it has annoying music, and target notification sounds. But that can be switched off. Overall, I highly commend it to anyone who wants to know what's in the night sky, or Star Sign.

Boooo, this is so much less than the original Redshift Astronomy app. For starters, the timeframe has been reduced from 800 years(400 back and 400 forward) to a mere 200 years. Weak. This used to be my favorite "go to" astronomy app, I paid $15.99 way back at the start of Redshift, now that app is "not working properly" and they say they are working on a fix. I doubt it, the fix is this new featureless version. Even if they offered me pro premium for free, I wouldn't stay. Don't download.

It is interesting and useful for learning application. It would be useful to see in application information about comet that visit solar system

App is ok and works fine. However the video adds are just horrible. Who's idea was it to have loud, bright, video adds start automatically when I am outside, in the dark trying to enjoy the night sky. Such a bad idea. I know you want to earn a buck, but there are better ways. Instant uninstall. - Update: dev has updated this. I'll give it a try soon and will update my review then.
