“Star Walk is a remarkably in-depth and detailed astronomy app. There's so much you can do with this app” - Common sense media

“It’s brilliant, and if you’re ever somewhere with a clear sky and no light pollution, it’s a revelation. It’s beautifully designed and makes clever use of the available technology. I’m fascinated by astronomy, but even if you’re not, give this a go.”

Boatsmiddy ,

Fantastic.

When I first started sailing,GPS was just beginning and very expensive,so I used the stars and a sextant. Would have loved something like this. Working out new stars was a bit of a procedure. Love this app. Would it be possible to be able to choose to see just the stars used in celestial navigation? There’s about 52 if I remember rightly. That would be a great bonus. Thanks for creating such a beautiful app.

Great ap

The best space software I have used

I think I remember when it worked...

Would be nice if it was currently capable of identifying the moon when it was pointed at it. Possibly it just ignores timezones like mine as too difficult to handle. Maybe it doesn’t know the time, when it’s told what it is. Whatever. Will just have to find another app that is fit for purpose.
