SkySafari Eclipse 2024 for Positive User Reviews
✓ I can feel myself getting smarterI’m in love with it. If you mess around with the settings you can make the experience both as scientific and as spiritual / healing as you want. In the right hands this is only a tool for good. Just get it..Version: 6.7.2
✓ Best sky software hands down!I love this app so much and use it almost every day for transit information! The ability to look so far into the past & also into the future is amazing! Highly recommend this app!.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Astrophotography go to for camera set-up.This is my go to app to set-up my camera on a clock mechanism to do astrophotography. It helps me locate objects to photograph and to check my photos for nebulosity's. The only issue is with stars set visually to maximum magnitude 12 on the app the app only reaches out to 9.6 magnitude and photos taken with a 300mm telephoto on a CANON EOS60D "sees" well beyond that. It is still the best "search" app for photography!.Version: 6.7.2
✓ Professional Sky-viewing toolSeveral astronomy professionals including me use this app to search for night sky objects at a major observatory..Version: 7.1.1
✓ GreatAwesome app.Version: 6.8.5
✓ Simply Wow!!Got a reference from an astronomy group when I accidentally spotted Mars and asked questions for it. Absolutely loved it from the day I installed it. The best part is there’s no annual subscription involved, makes sense as I am gonna use it that frequently. Just one addition that I would like to see is the visibility index, kinda recommendations that can say if a planet is visible to naked eye or needs a telescope..Version: 6.7.2
✓ So much to do in the App, little overwhelming!Incredible App, I could spend days looking at everything, between what is in the App and all of the astronomy sites connected to it! So much to it/to learn that I do find it a little overwhelming (I began with another AR App before this one which may be attributing to why?)! Personally, for me I think pop ups of “how to” info and facts which could be shut off when you felt you could remember how to do everything would be great- it’s hard to remember or make sense of everything I read when I close out of the pages that tell you how to do everything. Great App 👏🏼 you can tell a lot of hard work went into creating it. Perfect for home astronomy.Version: 6.3.1
✓ Sky safari 🙂🙂I like the compass and how it gives altitude info and how to help your telescope track the "object".It also tells the constellation 🌌 and the dawn and dusk info.I like how AR allows you to combine the sky with special programming plus graphics which is quite cool/fun tool..Version: 6.8.5
✓ SkySafari AR is best Free Astronomy AppThere are still many issues with Skysafari Astronomy Apps, for example SkySafari Pro, SkySafari Plus and SkySafari AR (Free) all mix small Greek letters with small Latin letters to name stars, the small Latin Letters have long ago been abandoned by IAU (International Asttonomical Union) So there is identity conflict when comparing SkySafari AR to paper star atlas..Version: 6.2.0
✓ DisappointedI purchased SkySafari+ a while back and it was excellent but it stoped working and was waiting for an update for it to work on my iPad. Would have been nice to be warned it wasn’t going to be updated and offered the new version..Version: 6.2.0
✓ My favourite appI absolutely love this app. Staring at the night sky is my favourite past time, even more so now as I’m learning about all the constellations. Thank you to the developer!.Version: 6.3.1
✓ Beyond UsefulDefinitely recommend this app to anyone studying the night sky. Invaluable. Thank You..Version: 6.5.1
✓ Sky safariI like it it’s good far looking at the planets and constellations in the telescope.Version: 6.8.5
✓ Great app, but some improvements are neededAfter doing some research on astronomy apps, I read that SkySafari was the best. I don’t usually purchase apps, but I decided to give it a try. Overall it’s an excellent app. I only have a few problems with it. Although it’s highly configurable, it only supports notifications for ALL planet risings (and “bright satellites and flares”), rather than letting you choose the planets you care about. (I don’t care much about Pluto rising.) Also, the app offers a “Do not disturb between” option for the notifications which allows you to enter a From and To time, but when I enter times and exit the settings and then return, the times are not saved. Maybe that’s a bug, or maybe I’m doing something wrong. I’d also like to see an option to display RA/DEC coordinates on the main screen. Unless I missed it, it appears to only support the display of AZ coordinates there. I use another astronomy app that provides a TelRad bullseye at the center of the screen, with associated coordinates (either RA/DEC or AZ). I know SkySafari provides all that information, but it seems that other apps do it slightly better. Overall, I still think SkySafari is a great app. (I’m not an experienced astronomer, so this is a beginner’s opinion.).Version: 7.1.1
✓ Mind blowing!So impressed with the detailing of the app! So easy to find specific stars you are looking for. I love the graphics!..Version: 7.1.1
✓ Bought pro 2 minutes laterShould have just bought pro. Did 2 minutes later and wasted $3 on this version. Bummer. excited for pro though. Make sure you compare the different versions because these is no path to upgrade. I use my phone a lot when doing public events with my astronomy club and the pro is a much better fit..Version: 6.7.2
✓ Harty 69Nice feel to this whole experience.Version: 6.3.1
✓ Best view of the night skyReal time perspective enables quick identification of points of interest, even on free version. I love it !.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Sky Safari is an excellent resource for both the beginner and veteran stargazerFirst and foremost, this app is very user friendly, even for an extreme neophyte. This is an amazing app that shows your location under the celestial sphere and allows you to zoom in on any object of interest, from constellation to deep sky object, at will. You are also able to see objects of interest below the horizon in anticipation of later viewing. This app keeps track of the sky 24/7 at your location, even during the day, reminding you that the stars are still there even when the Sun is shining. This helps the beginner learn the celestial seasons with the reassurance that in six months this same invisible daytime sky will become the nighttime sky yet again. This app will send you notifications of selected sightings of predicted events such as ISS (Zarya) crossings..Version: 6.5.1
✓ La Superba!Most helpful in planning dawn and dusk Nightscape photography outings. Positioned the view to the eastern or western horizon and fast forwarded program to identify objects that will be rising or setting just before or just after the sun, at which times the light is optimal for Nightscape photography..Version: 6.6.4
✓ Perfect for the Backyard Star GazerThis App is fantastic for Star gazing! Wether your an amateur or an expert, you should download this to your phone and iPad device. Extremely accurate. 10/10 in my personal opinion..Version: 7.3.5
✓ ShakeelI love it 🌒🌍🌓🌏🌔🪐🌎🪐🪐🌏🌏🌍🌒🌓🌓.Version: 6.7.2
✓ Easy to useA great way of seeing the stats and knowing what you are looking at.Version: 6.2.0
✓ Incredible App.I use this fantastic app on an almost nightly basis (spotting deep space objects, clusters, planets etc) and find it invaluable. The wealth of info is astounding, and really helps to encourage exploring the night sky. The design and usability is also spot on. An incredibly well developed app. P.s. V minor suggestion, I would love a shortcut button on the menu bar / time slider that could jump to the “dusk end” of that particular day. Great stuff, top marks..Version: 6.2.0
✓ Excellent appLovely piece of software for the amateur astronomer.Version: 6.2.0
✓ A wonderful astronomy programThis is a great program to have in your iPhone as an assistant when you gaze at the night sky! Planets and stars are in proper placement and the zoom function is great..Version: 6.8.5
✓ VR is fantasticVR is Fantastic, its a bit hard to hold the ipad and put buttons to take the photo(s) while composing the photo but it is do-able. My subject had to stand up on a box and I had to sit very low to compose the photo but the results are truly amazing. Suggestion: put the ‘shutter button’ somewhere easy to push or use voice commands..Version: 6.3.0
✓ So sadI purchased and spent some time learning how to use Sky Safari, and having become reasonsbly proficient at using it I turn the app on and I am totally unable to recognise the control layout! Why was this change done do Sky Safari customers mean nothing to the software developers? You could have polled people to see how they would have felt a change as drastic as this. I am so p••••d off by this if I had not purchased Sky Safari I would simply delete the app and find another, thanks SkySafari developers for nothing..Version: 7.1.1
✓ Confusing be carefulI had the old are SkySafari on my phone for quite awhile, the premium version of that was £24.99 to upgrade , then I saw another version called SkySafari Pro for £24.99, so I thought no brainer just buy the pro version and it’s all there and up-to-date, but then looking for the features I was going to pay for on the normal version and find you still have to pay another £24.99. !! so as far as I can see, the pro version is pretty much like the unpaid for other version apart from maybe a couple of minor things ! I have quite a few other astronomy apps and I found this one very misleading and feel I’ve just wasted £24.99 !.Version: 7.1.9
✓ Amazing giftI am disable so more often than not I am unable to make the best of my telescope, SkySafary has gifted me the opportunity not only to see what is above at night when I cannot due to health or heavy clouds but also what is all around me during daytime I could not be without it. Thank you for your wonderful BIG gift, you have given me the Cosmo as seen from my post code.. what could be better than that..Version: 6.3.0
✓ Great programBeen playing with Program very good.Version: 6.1.0
✓ Thanks for the clarification, Love the “pluto” background soundsThanks a lot for clarification. If you really liked the older app background music instead of “cricket” sound, go to Settings > Appearance & Behavior > Ambient Sounds > Pluto. This sounds is so peaceful & satisfying. Love the app & developers. Thanks a lot..Version: 6.8.5
✓ Apollo missions won't download.Hi, thanks for the free upgrade. However the 'Apollo missions' doesn't download once purchased. Was great already, but is even better now with the upgrade!.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Compass to the starsLove the compass feature point and shoot at the sky so you can see what your looking at!.Version: 6.3.1
✓ Sky Safari is my Guide to the CosmosI use Safari almost daily. From planning out my night to learning about about all the amazing weird stuff up in the sky, I love it. It’s one of those apps (the only one?) that is a pure joy to use. Thanks, John.Version: 6.8.5
✓ Best celestial app out thereOne time while using sky safari pro I saw a shooting star cross the sky…..and my phone screen at the same time. By far the best app for stargazing.Version: 7.1.9
✓ OUTSTANDINGHi!!! I’m a kid (nine years of age) but I LOVE zodiacs and constellations! I’m a prodigy, (and I know I am because I can name the zodiacs frontwards and backwards) But sky safari helps me identify what constellations are in the night. I can see Virgo (my zodiac) Cancer Scorpio Taurus Gemini Capricorn Aquarius Pisces Leo and so much more!!! I rely on sky safari but there’s one little problem that needs to be fixed. So basically I turned on all the labels and it was a little bit laggy but when I went to turn it back off, it wouldn’t turn back off because the button just disappeared. Please fix this!!! I love sky safari but I can’t use it with all these labels! Kind regards, SkySafari user.Version: 6.8.4
✓ AMAZING APP!!!!What a fantastic app it is great for viewing the sky day or night I love it, it is also my new favourite app.Version: 6.6.4
✓ Tres bon applicationBeaucoup de detail et tout ce qu il y a à savoir..Version: 6.8.5
✓ One little request!This app is so intuitive and clear. If I could have one wish fulfilled, it would be to give me the option to hide the permanent top bar with time and location. In night time lighting, that thing is so darn bright, and without it, the view would be so much more immersive. Besides, I know my location!.Version: 6.7.6
✓ Very good you should get thisVery good you should get this.Version: 6.8.2
✓ Really goodMe and my dad have learnt so much already and really enjoyed it and recommend it for everyone..Version: 6.7.0
✓ SkySafariI would be lost without this great program..Version: 6.7.0
✓ All you need besides a telescopeThis App goes with me every time I take a telescope out (which is every clear night). Whether in your own backyard or out on excursion companion, especially when installed on a mobile device with a larger display, as long as you have the built-in GPS of your device (and assuming you have some sort of signal) you can literally swing your tablet/device around and get a map of the sky. Then you can program the GoTo of your telescope, slew to either Alt/Az coordinates or RA/Dec, or just swing a pair of binoculars. The dynamic clock feature, and several features whether built in or the optional subscriptions are good for short and long term planning. The Search with a representative image with "Locate" feature is a plus for determining if you can swing your telescope to a point before you decide to try. I believe premium versions of this App integrate with the desktop version. Maybe it would also import and export lists and logs. To make best use of this App, learn about the limits of your telescope and your night sky (light pollution) so that you can set magnitude (darkness) limits for stars and other objects in the Settings. Ok maybe you'll only have 10,000 objects that are visible, but it helps with screen clutter. I also set the Milky Way, horizon and Constellation features and the display becomes aesthetically pleasing..Version: 6.3.0
✓ Telescope connecrionI have a nexstar 4se telescope, I downloaded and installed the Sky Safari app, paid, after all success, how come there is no option in the settings menu to connect to the telescope? did i buy wrong?.Version: 6.8.0
✓ Awesome AppI Just bought my first telescope and this app is perfect for what I want.. I downloaded heaps of other apps to try before I buy and found them to be to busy and gave more information than I need. The app seems accurate & is a lot more user friendly than the others plus a lot cheaper... certainly recommend this. Well done to the developers.Version: 6.8.5
✓ My new favourite appI tried a few star apps and this one is the best I found by a long stretch. It just works. The AR map is informative and pretty but doesn’t overdo it. Stacks of other information too including when planets rise & set in your location..Version: 6.3.1
✓ Nothing beats itBeen using Sky Safari for some time now. I don’t think there is any other app that comes close to it. So much info included within the app. A must have if you have an interest in all things space..Version: 6.1.2
✓ How good is sky safari!It has stars!.Version: 7.1.7
✓ Best astronomy app everThe developer deserves 5 stars for developing such a great app and for listening to users! I'm impressed by the fact that the developer actually took time to reply and develop features that users want. I think that's what makes the app so fantastic! A huge thank you for making such a wonderful thing!.Version: 6.5.0
✓ WowThis is the app for all space heads.Version: 6.7.0
✓ Sky SafariIf you had a great observatory with a camera that could WiFi straight to your smartphone and you could use it to observe day or night. If you had an astronomy library that would allow you to choose a constellation, a star, a planet, or a deep sky object and learn and see what objects it contained. If you planned a star party and based on what you read in Sky and Telescope Magazine everyone would know where to look and what they were expected to find. You would have seen a little of what Sky Safari is.Version: 6.5.0
✓ Amazing game, love it butWhat does the Cosmos collection do ???.Version: 6.2.0
✓ I can spend hours . . .What a app for astronomy buffs! Locate (within a reasonable proximity) that dot of light you see, find out what is known about it, follow its path, past or future, and get updates on upcoming astronomical events! I used it to observe the recent blue (accurately, Orange) super moon eclipse at totality just before dawn, knowing that since it calculates the viewing perspective from my exact location, I could get the eclipse right in the stage I wanted and know exactly where in the sky it was going to be. I like the music, too, but it can be turned off and on..Version: 6.0.4
✓ 3etangsGénial.Version: 6.7.2
✓ Perfect fun old school , with idiot proof technology.Try it , its worth 3 bucks..Version: 6.7.2
✓ Sky SafariWe really enjoy this app. We have learned so much. It’s fascinating to look at the sky and identify the stars. We live in a rural area where the sky isn’t washed out by urban lights. We are going to invest in a more sophisticated telescope so that the experience of star gazing will be even better. It kind of scary though to know that the universe is so large..Version: 6.6.4
✓ Best app in its classFantastic app! I’ve tried many and this is my favorite by far. You can even search for cosmic objects (stars, planets, etc.) and it will direct you to them with an arrow. This is the easiest to use star-gazing app I’ve found. An additional bonus is that it gives elaborate info on all the stars, comets, etc. my only criticism: You can’t turn off the sound..Version: 6.2.0
✓ Great app..I’ve downloaded several different star/constellation/gazing apps and I appears that this one has my heart..! It is truly a great way to spend time with your family It’s the best star finder simply because it it has the most cosomo info, everything is user friendly and has the capability to make me appear as though I am a genius. I Just downloaded it today and I’m already navigating the constellations like ima StarBoy!!!.Version: 6.2.0
✓ GorgeousSimply beautiful!.Version: 6.2.0
✓ Excellent!Très bonne application, facile d’utilisation et bien complète. La réalité augmentée est bien intéressante mais pas toujours facile à synchroniser. Mais les détails des éléments du ciel sont bien documentés..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Excellent appHave tried many night sky apps and this is the best. Used it to find exactly where Mercury was last week so that I could go out and view it. Came across it in ‘All about Space’ magazine. Like the background music as well. Still exploring it but so far so good. Doug, Falkirk, UK.Version: 6.3.1
✓ Love this app!Awesome app, so much information. Highly recommend!!!.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Great for astrophotographyI use this app for my astrophtography setup with my Celestron AVX mount and the ASIAIR astrocomputer. This allows controlling my telescope mount remotely using the GoTo function. It works perfectly. I also use it to prepare my nights and choose my targets. Given the sky pollution and the large obstruction of the field of view in my backyard, this allows me to scroll to the bit of sky which is visible at a given point in time. I also use it when aligning my telescope. Since Celestron is asking to point the telescope at specific named stars, I can quickly search for them and use the locate function: it draws an arrow giving you the direction to orient your phone/tablet. Very convenient when you only know some major star names..Version: 6.3.1
✓ Where is IC 434 HorseheadOne of the better star charts out there but has a few quirks. Love the AR compass feature. Was using last night latest version for about 1.5 hours and the app locked up on my iPhone 8 about 10 times. Screen gets stretched and app gets completely locked up. Have to unload and reload each time. Looking for a better app. Also IC 434 is missing from Orion..Version: 6.3.1
✓ Couldn’t be better!This app is amazing! I’ve been using Star Chart for the longest time, drooling to get my hands on this. Now it’s free! However, it might be a little difficult for first time stargazers because it can have a lot of distractions. I love the voice control, it really helps free up my hands. Forty dollars is a lot for an app, but I love this so much, I think Pro will definitely be worth it. I was surprised to find that it has little to no lag even with all of the items to display. It is a high quality app and I thank Simulation Curriculum..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Great App - User friendlyI find ths very easy to use. And, if you want to change settings - you can add contellation drawings, etc. I really like the ease of rolling the date and time forward, and changing location, to see what sky will be like next month when I am on vacation somewhere else..Version: 6.6.4
✓ Family HobbyThis app works with or without a telescope. Find stars, constellations, planets and comets, etc. Accurate and precise. Informative and exploratory. Goes where we go and keeps us looking up..Version: 6.2.0
✓ 😀😀😀“Tidy”.Version: 6.2.0
✓ Sky SafariI’ve found it to be user friendly and very comprehensive.Version: 6.7.6
✓ Excellent softwareTried around 15 different astronomy apps before I find this one. It does everything I want, is quick and accurate. Do give it a try and you'll see what I mean. Bill.Version: 6.2.0
✓ Awesome program.Easy to use app, great for quick info..Version: 6.6.4
✓ WillMy dad made this app.Version: 6.7.0
✓ Fabulous facilityThis gives us all an opportunity to try to understand what people have spent hundreds of years servicing about our universe. A treasure trove of information!.Version: 6.8.5
✓ Search for HilalOne of the greatest things I’ve learnt with this is that today and tomorrow exists side by side. Check me out on YouTube Camden Town hilal observer or Type Nature joy at first sight. Shout! Love the mellow tune on this..Version: 6.3.1
✓ Too much unclearLooks like a good app, and I was trying to decide whether to upgrade to Plus while the discount was available (or possibly even Pro)—but there are Help files that are unclear, graphic glitches with the Apollo addition, and the voice control (though I understand it’s in “progress”) doesn’t work even with the example commands listed. It’s less than clear what new features are available in the upgrade version, other than the free Apollo add-in—which I already purchased. So I don’t have enough reason (at least not enough clear reason) to upgrade, especially when I’m having trouble with features already available. I’ll definitely keep the app on my phone and use it. Perhaps it’s just me; but, regardless, if I’m already having trouble, there’s little point inviting more. All the basic features seem to work fine, and I’d still recommend the basic app for others—perhaps those who might have better luck (or even sufficient skill) to use it more effectively..Version: 6.5.0
✓ Kilometers to milesThis is really an amazing app I really enjoy star gazing and this app helps me to do so but I was wondering if there’s a way to change from kilometers to miles for the distance of an object I have no idea how to read kilometers so having it changed to miles would really help. Thanks again for this amazing app!.Version: 6.2.0
✓ Superb!This terrific free app is designed with the serious amateur astronomer in mind. The app contains detailed star charts and a full catalog of all the celestial objects an amateur astronomer could hope to find, with detailed descriptions of these objects. I find the app to be very useful for finding deep sky objects as the charts are sufficiently detailed for star hopping. A nice touch is “tonight’s best”, which gives good ideas for objects to look for..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Sky Safari is the GOATThis app is so good that I keep my old sky atlas app around just for the sake of comparison. I use the two apps together as a tool to encourage others to upgrade. I tell them “Look here, I used to use this outdated app but now I cruise the skies with Sky Safari!” Once they see the difference, they are sold! If their Internet connection will bear it, they download this app on the spot. The feature suite and extras in Sky Safari are extraordinary! The display pops with vivid details and well layered information. This app is surely the Greatest Of All Time in its class..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Educational & ExcitingSky Safari is an educational and exciting app. It teaches kids AND adults about the world above our heads..Version: 6.1.2
✓ Super helpful.Easy to use and so informative as to which star and planet you are looking at in real time from your actual location..Version: 6.1.2
✓ First Class.Cannot find fault with this App. So much information, great when out looking for something new to find. Audio is great. It really leaves other apps in it’s wake. Marvelous..Version: 6.5.0
✓ PoorUnstable, cannot remove unintended selected item.Version: 6.5.3
✓ CosmicI have enjoyed using this so far, worth paying £3.99 to upgrade features. Certainly cheaper than sky guide’s yearly subscription of £10 for similar features. I do use both though!.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Stupendous appEver wonder what that is in the sky, this app is perfect. You can even locate heavenly bodies through the Earth..Version: 6.8.5
✓ Sky Safari ARI’m an amateur astronomer, using both telescopes and APPs. The Sky Safari AR is by far one of the best apps around to learn and gather more information about our Universe! Way to go what a great APP. My sincere appreciation for your outstanding job!.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Most amazing....EVER! Hands down.You could spend the rest of your life exploring with skysafari6 and never have to see the same object twice. Pure GENIUS! George Jetson didn’t have it this good! NOW you really CAN tell your telescope where to go. We absolutely love all the people and products at simulation curriculum,they are so nice and Very helpful folks. THIS is what cutting edge technology...looks like. S.T.E.M. Is the future,here’s a path forward. With great respect. Dean Janson.Version: 6.1.2
✓ Experienced userI have used SkySafari Pro for many years. I use it to control three telescopes I own. This SkySafari program is more basic and is excellent for people who are more casual observers and not using telescopes. It provides a very good sky map and a wealth of information..Version: 6.7.6
✓ Love itExcellent app.Version: 6.5.1
✓ AmazingI live in north western Maine, one of the only places in the northeast not contaminated by light pollution. This app is amazing, the accuracy of the location of stars and constellations is dead on. It’s easy to use and GREAT for anyone interested in stargazing. Thank you!.Version: 6.8.5
✓ Much appreciated! Thank you!!👍.Version: 7.1.1
✓ 🥱🥱🥱Wow it is making me sleepy.Version: 6.8.5
