I have used this app for years. Relied on it setting up my telescope… in the past 1-2 years it has become so inaccurate. Say tonight aug1,2023 for instance. The full moon is stationed in Aquarius, but on the app it’s showing it stationed in Capricorn. Also I used to be able to tap on the star or planet on my screen and know with certainty that the information provided was correct. Sadly I’m going to have to find a better app.
Well Done

This is a well conceived and executed app. I would like to see the addition of the ecliptic in the display. An intensity control of the constellation art would be nice too. Thank you for making this available. After upgrade to iOS 16.5.1, Sky View will hang about half the time upon launch, and the compass no longer shows. (iPhone 8).
Adjust the view?

When I hold my phone up where the planets are and the stars it does not match what’s on the screen I have to move it around and tilt down several feet, which is thousands of miles on the camera lens view. Is there anyway to adjust the location of these things by what’s literally with your camera phone lens?
Cool, with many different discoveries

This app just shows you what this universe is like. Millions of different stars and planets. I’m 12 years old, and most teens get bored with astronomy apps. Well, not this one lol.
Sky View Top Notch

The accuracy, utility, and (above all) the music make this a constant companion for my astrophography. One of the few apps that compelled to buy it. Couldn’t be happier.
Update?

This app is great when I first got it. Now it no longer works and I can’t seem to get any support.
