• Designed specially for efficient outdoor use.

• Popup images — No need to keep zooming in and out just to see what is out there.

• Full 180 degree display — See at a glance what is in the sky and where without having to pan around.

• Don't need to hold level — Displays the sky view and information at the correct orientation when held at any angle not just landscape or portrait.

• Gyroscope compass auto calibration — No need to calibrate the gyroscope. Advanced adaptive algorithms for smooth and accurate positioning.

• Planets shown with relative brightness to stars — No oversized graphics that prevent you from distinguishing a planet from surrounding stars.

• Unique target identification — Touch drag scheme for greatest accuracy since your finger doesn't hide what you are trying to identify.

GoSkyWatch Planetarium Pros

InvaluableIt's a must for anyone new to astronomy like me. On second scope 10' dob and I chose it because those goto's are a pain to set up. A handy mate is making an iPhone clip so we can just point away effortlessly. Make sure in settings you've selected deepsky/night mode and most IMPORTANTLY click the little world icon to gps your location. Then you're away. No other app gives this level of detail and I've played with a few. The app is a wealth of everything.SithefishVersion: 4.6

Impressionnnant!!!!Si javais eu cet outil pendant toute ces nuits de jeunesse ou jai admiré ces etoiles... Je serais un peu plus connaissant de lunivers!.Pat100sousiVersion: 0

GoSkyWatch Planetarium Cons

Never remembers northStarted off good, but having north always out of calibration kind of ruins the app for me. Even with a follow up from GoSoftWorks the app still disappoints. Thanks for your canned response. Hopefully that is enough to cover up other unhappy customers. I would hate for your reputation to be damaged by your poor product performance..Mundo is disappointedVersion: 9.4

Not very accurateFor quite an expensive app it’s accuracy is not very goos.TimbojetVersion: 9.1
