SkySafari 7 Plus for Negative User Reviews
✓ Lost key functionality to try to get subscription $Don’t buy this version if you are interested in a simple, effective interface to visualize the night sky. In an apparent effort to emphasize social interaction between users and to push subscription revenue, this version ended up making the simple things much more difficult..Version: 7.1.3
✓ UpdatesJust why do we the people who purchased your app in the first place have to keep paying for every update that you put out.A lot of the other apps don’t charge for any of there updates.Just for this reason I giving you a 3 star rating..Version: 7.0.3
✓ Doesn’t workThe only reason why I purchased SkySafari 7 Plus was to control my telescope. I am very disappointed that this feature doesn’t work. I can set up a preset but tapping the telescope icon results in total silence..Version: 7.1.4
✓ Plus 7 is not an upgradeI have and enjoy SkySafari PRO 5. After a couple of notifications to “upgrade” for $9.99, I trustingly clicked through and purchased the so-called upgrade and discovered I accidentally paid for a downgrade— PLUS 7. Plus is less featured than Pro 5. I feel duped. Now I have both Pro 5 and Plus 7 on my iPhone and no actual upgrade path to Pro 7. I can only get to Pro 7 now by buying a full price copy despite owning two other releases. Or I can pay $29.99/year for Premium. I’m not ready to subscribe to yet another anything, I just want an upgrade path to Pro 7, especially since I just downgraded for $9.99. I was an idiot. Don’t get duped by the good people at SkySafari like I was..Version: 7.1.3
✓ Safari 6 seems to be betterI miss being able to forward time and see what objects were rising or where objects were the previous day/ week/ month. Haven’t found that option yet in 7 Plus. Good thing 6 is still on my phone..Version: 7.0.3
✓ Why?I would give more stars except I keep getting notices to buy it again the app again , again and again !.Version: 7.0.3
✓ Tricked into buying this!There was a notification on SkyPortal ( which runs my Celestron Evolution 8) to upgrade. I thought I was buying a pro version of that. Why else would there be a notification on that app to go pro? Paid for this app it won’t even run my scope it’s complete garbage. And a ripoff!!!.Version: 7.1.3
✓ Sky safari 7.0The menu bar didn’t show up. There is no instructions on how to set up the basic navigation steps like accessing the “object info”. It’s practically useless.Version: 7.0.3
✓ Location issuesPaid $15 again and still can’t locate.Version: 7.0.2
✓ Not happyWatched a review on youtube and thought this looked great. Bought this app for £9 and after installing the first thing I get is "only available to premium" and asked for more money. Now while I accept I there is a mention of premium features I would have thought they would add something more than you can get in other free apps..Version: 7.1.3
✓ Sky Safari plus downSadly after a few updates on my ios my sky safari plus no longer works I am now left with a blank screen.!!!.Version: 7.2.0
✓ Can’t figure it outReally hoping to enjoy this completely different than the six version not overly happy.Version: 7.3.1
✓ CumbersomeNot worth the money.Version: 7.1.3
✓ Went back to StarsenseTargets but doesn't show arrows. Waste of money. Went back to Starsense..Version: 7.3.1
✓ It worked great until yesterdayI use this app all the time to plan my observing sessions. Now when you click on “Observing List” the app immediately crashes. I think they are working to fix this. It’s a complete disaster because the Observing Lists are key to my planning. I have lists of Nebulas, Galaxies, things I want to photograph, etc. and now I can’t access them at all. It’s almost enough to make me want to switch to another app. Hopefully they will fix this soon..Version: 7.1.5
✓ Formatting issuesNew app does not format correctly the heading in my SE2 SF6 plus much better.Version: 7.0.2
✓ PlanetsIt would be nice to see if the stars that this app has information on, would display if there are any interesting planets that orbit it.Version: 7.1.7
✓ Won’t talk to a LX200 GPSI bought this software to talk to my LX200 GPS scope using my Meade Stella controller which I believe is the same as the SKFI device. The Stella app is no longer available on the Apple Store and quit working with the latest IOS update. I can get Skysafari to connect ok to the Stella but it errors out with “the scope is not responding”. I went thru all the community comments but could not find an answer to why it is not responding. I triple checked all my settings correct. So I try and put in a help ticket but that just refers you back to the community page. There no where on their website where you can email for tech help. No where to phone for help. This developer wants you to buy their app but not back it up with tech help. It looks like there is very little traffic on their community page so I don’t expect an answer from that. Very disappointed in the app and would not recommend. Waste of $20..Version: 7.3.1
✓ SkySafari 7 The Tool Bar always present in Sky View!A SkySafari (SS) developer asked me, “ “Name a feature missing in SS 7? Ok, easy! I miss the feature removing the Tool Bar from bottom of the screen! The computer controls are always on the screen occupying valuable space. At star-parties, The tool bar produces a lot of white light, especially when displayed on 43 inch tv screen. SkySafari Seven is all messe-up. There are many important features in SS-6 that did not get transferred to SS-7 SkySafari 7 for iOS came out in December 2021, Just in time for Christmas Shoppers, unfortunately SkySafari 7 got the COVID Virus, Im putting SkySafari 7 in quarantine until SS 8 comes out. I do not know how to return SS 7 to get my money back? SkySafari Six Plus is a much better stargazing app, in my opinion, the best stargazing app in the market! in SS 7 you can not rearrange Menu Items, or hide unwanted menu items. Just go with SkySafari Six which is a great App. and save your money for SkySafari eight which Im sure will be a big improvement! Maybe SS7 will have gotten its COVID booster vaccine in time for Christmas release of SmySafari Eight! Note to developer, who asked me “what’s wrong with SS7?” I think you know more than I, what is wrong with SkySafari Seven!.Version: 7.0.3
✓ SkySafari 7. PlusAfter trying it for 10 minutes it is not working on my IPAD Pro. I cannot find any way to get a refund I would not recommend this app. There are better apps that are free and works better..Version: 7.1.8
✓ Won’t connectSky Safari 7 Plus won’t connect to my Scope and iPad ios16. Error message says to join the Wi-Fi network (the iPad is set to the scope Wi-Fi), enter it’s iPhone address correctly ( this is automatically set and present), and to give SK7 access to the local network( iPad settings say the permission is granted, no similar setting in SK7). Same issue with my iPhone 13 Pro on ios17. Waste of money if I can’t control the scope!.Version: 7.3.0
✓ SkySafari plusWould not recommend this app. After years of having the SkySafari Pro, and it’s constant prompts for me to upgrade, I finally decided to upgrade to the sky safari plus. I spent two hours trying to enter my preferences in my information into the settings, I prompted into settings to show planets and it did. Now they’re gone even though the setting still indicates that they’re showing. It took the better part of an hour to try to figure out how to get the time to be correct to my current time. I finally found the setting that it thought I was for some reason in England. Once I got that changed, it finally set it up to my local time. But the sky did not adjust. I was sitting there, looking at Orion about 30° above the horizon, but the app was showing me it was about 10° below the horizon. All of the planets have disappeared from the view. And I turned off the marketing settings and yet every time I open the app it’s trying to get me to upgrade to the premium version. Do not recommend this app and if things don’t get better, I’m possibly going to delete it..Version: 7.3.5
✓ Bait and SwitchI paid $10 for the premium app now they’ve made the app free, and hidden the premium content behind a subscription paywall. I wouldn’t trust this developer..Version: 7.2.0
✓ Bait and switchCan’t even see comets unless you upgrade! What a bunch of crap. Can get the same setup from any other cheaper app.Version: 7.1.7
