Star Walk 2: Stars and Planets for Positive User Reviews
✓ It’s hard to improve what’s perfectSince it’s first release Starwalk has been one of the most important and valued apps I own. And every new update just makes it even more valuable. Wether you’re an amateur astronomer, professional astronomer or just a back yard star gazer this app has it all. I highly recommend purchasing the upgrade to get the best experience. And no, I was not paid to say that. It really is that good..Version: 2.13.2
✓ Great Planetarium ProgramI am using Starwalk original and Starwalk 2, which is even better. Seen many others but this has to be the best. Works great on both iPhone and iPad. It finds its location and where you are pointing at reliably offers a wealth of information. Can only recommend it..Version: 2.4.0
✓ John DavisWhen we lived un Spain I used to see many of these objects according to season. Unfortunately now I live in urban north Wales clear skies are a rarity. Your app helps with great memories..Version: 2.11.12
✓ It's amazing and very helpful.I understand that for some they just want to use it for star and constellation locating, and it's great for that. Though for others who plan on going into a field in that kind of subject is great for them to learn where everything we know of is, and how they function. It even gives those people a great understanding of the how much there really is out there. I've managed to learn so much. Even if it doesn't give you every material makeup of all the stars, galaxies, and star clusters, it's still a great source of education. I have much to learn from it, and I highly suggest getting the full deal on it. Maybe someday I'll be able to pursue my dreams, or maybe they'll just stay dreams. But as long as I keep trying my best I might be able to, and this app would have helped me so much. I just want to thank the creators for giving me a chance to study at a low cost, and helping me keep my hope that what I want to do isn't pointless..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Easiest Sky Watching ToolEasy app to understand - even for a rookie sky watcher. Lots of features. You don't have to buy any additional features but they are easily available as your interests develop. I like to follow the ISS on here. Good job on the app!!.Version: 2.13.0
✓ Excellent literatureI enjoyed playing and learning with this book.Version: 2.11.0
✓ Good app; room for improvementHaven't used it much yet, but what I've seen so far I like for the most part. Will continue to explore and experiment. Two downsides I've noticed thus far, though, that leave room for improvement: 1- The app is pretty large. Wish it could take up a less space--perhaps by giving the option to not carry around all the fancy 3D models of things. 2- Can't find a way to turn off the constellation "artistic renditions." I just want to see the stars and the lines we draw between them, thankyouverymuch. The unavoidable presence of the additional artwork is distracting and unnecessarily cluttering when actually using the app to compare with what's overhead..Version: 2.8.1
✓ Awesome app!This is an incredibly well designed app with an immense library of our solar system. I downloaded this app for my kids to learn about the cosmos but I use it myself just as much as my children. Highly recommended!.Version: 2.9.3
✓ Immediate WOW factor!I was literally raving with delight and enthusiasm less than three minutes after opening the app. I don’t have a telescope, but I am always wanting to follow the progression of planets in the sky, and I always wanted to learn more about the visible night sky. This makes it all easy, but with tremendous access to information while I stargaze. The added visual and aesthetic effects are tasteful (and optional), in fact they enhance the sense of awe and seem to help draw the attention more to the subject at hand than to distract. One of the best app purchases I’ve ever made!.Version: 2.8.6
✓ WonderfulI am soEnjoying using this app for information it gives is fantastic and I’m learning more every evening..Version: 2.11.12
✓ Amazing Watch AppThe apple watch app for Star Walk 2 is the best app I’ve used on my watch. Impeccably useful for an amateur stargazer, I can look at what stars and planets I’ll be able to see now or later in the day, and tell how much light pollution there is. Definitely worth the subscription..Version: 2.9.6
✓ Love it!This is a wonderful app for stargazing! I have looked at the stars for decades and only been able to pick out the most well know constellations. With this, I can just point my phone in the direction I’m looking and the app shows me exactly which stars and which constellations I’m seeing. I also like that it sends me notifications about what is happening in the sky on a given night. I can’t wait for my granddaughter to get a little older so we can lay out under the stars and find constellations together with the help of this app!.Version: 2.8.7
✓ Love it!Love it! Anywhere in the world i go i use this app! Such a nice peak into the Cosmos around us :).Version: 2.6.0
✓ Pretty coolHelped me identify constellations and learn more about the cosmos, I love it so far! Beautiful app!.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Explore the universe from home.I love this app. It slows me to do the star gazing I want and explore the universe without even leaving the house. Though if you can use it as a guide to watching the actual stars on a clear night I highly recommend you do. Make sure you upgrade the constellations to give you a much greater understanding of what they are made from and how they relate to three dimensional space. Fascinating..Version: 1.1.0
✓ A window to the skyEndlessly fascinating.Version: 2.4.2
✓ Too many notifications to buy other apps and featuresMy personal opinion is that I paid $3.99 for Star Walk 2 - Night Sky Map and most times when I click a button an ad pops up to buy more stuff. I regret buying it. Other people may have different opinion but this is my personal review.Version: 2.7.0
✓ Something has changedThis used to be a good App but something has changed even although I paid full price in beginning they are consistently now trying to pedal me add ons. If you don’t live in USA you will also be annoyed with times of events etc and Americanised facts..Version: 2.11.9
✓ Not so timelyLove the app. It’s simple and pretty gorgeous. It also holds and reveals a ton of great info about the night sky. And jeepers, Star Walk folks, if you’re going to tell me about wonderful upcoming events, please please please tell me before they happen not after. I can’t say how many times the app has posted an upcoming event for “tonight” that happened last night. The conjunction of the moon and Jupiter tonight is the latest example. Already behind us. Thanks for the thrill. Ugh..Version: 2.11.12
✓ Excellent!Easy to use and very educational.Version: 1.2.0
✓ SuggestionThis is a very nice, useful app. However, when I tap on a constellation or while I’m looking at the 3D view, I would like the option of turning off the picture of the mythological person/beast that appears. While using the app to look at the sky, I can choose how I want the constellations to appear, but once I tap on the constellation, the picture appears and obstructs my view. I like seeing the picture, and I love that the app includes information about the mythological person/beast, but I don’t like that the picture obstructs my view of the constellation and all that appears in it. So once I’ve seen the picture, I would like to turn it off. What I really want to see when I tap on a constellation is the boarder lines of the constellation. I.e., I want to see the region of space bordered by the constellation. Here is my reply to the developers response. I appreciate your response, but it looks like you misunderstood my suggestion. I know how to change the settings of the constellations. I mentioned this in my review, and I have my constellations set to appear with the lines connecting the stars. However, when I tap the constellation the picture still appears. This is the part I don’t like and can’t change..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Southern Hemisphere Moon Phase?Starwalk 2 is on my widgets and it shows the stargazing condition, sunrise & moon phase. This is all well and good except for the fact that I live in the Southern Hemisphere but the moon phase is always that of the Northern Hemisphere. Would be appreciated if you could add the Southern Hemisphere one?.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Great, 1 little problem.....The app is wonderful! Very clever. I can put the app into camera view, and it recognises objects and didn’t show stars through them ie. trees, and houses, so you get the true “looking into space” feel. 1 gripe..... for some reason, when I look at the moon (tilt the camera toward the sky) the whole star overlay moves clockwise..... which throws the alignment out, and I have to exit and restart the app to get this to stabilize, which is slightly embarrassing when trying to show the great app to others! Can it be fixed? Otherwise it would have been 5. Such an in depth view of space, I even found satellites orbiting Jupiter and lander ones on mars! Impressive. Highly recommended!.Version: 2.7.7
✓ Excellent app!Love this app, use it every time I look up at the sky at night. This is a must have for anyone that loves to see what is going on up there!.Version: 2.4.2
✓ Awesome!!!I have tried several star apps before and this is the best one I have seen so far. It's worth to use and lots of options. Don’t let the file size stop you from getting it..Version: 2.11.12
✓ A great tool to the skyI am really impressed with this app not only does it look good on the iPhone 7 it works really well can’t well wait to take out my telescope and have a butchers.Version: 2.11.3
✓ Great appI also have star walk original. I his new app is great. AR mode works fine also tracking satellite is so handy..Version: 1.0.0
✓ WonderfulOnly new to Astronomy & loving it along with this App which is teaching me so much. I think it is just wonderful.Version: 2.8.6
✓ Simply the bestI’ve had this app for years now and have throughly enjoyed using for all that time. Recently my daughter has taken an interest in the night sky after she asked what that bright star was, it was Venus. A quick donate of an old iPad in a rugged case and she sits for hours just looking and we stand outside in the cold nights until we are freezing. By the app and the bundle. Absolute bargain..Version: 2.11.12
✓ Nice....I have downloaded free apps and I have downloaded apps that cost a lot of money whenever it comes to looking at the universe. This one is really good. It shows you so much more than many others out there that usually ends up costing a lot of money. The only negative: It doesn’t show close-ups of nebulae. It will show stars; but who really wants to see a star? They are all the same besides their color. They’re either going to be blue, red, white or yellow. There’s no difference. Other than this, I really like this one. I think that is worth it, and I do recommend it..Version: 2.4.4
✓ This is PRICELESS!The best app I have ever purchased. I spend hours outside using, very detailed and accurate, easy for adults and kids to use. This is a MUST!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ Thank you and great job guys!I’ve only just begun using this app but so far tonight it is really been a lot of fun learning lots about the skies and the stars. Space has always been one of the biggest mysteries and I hope to learn more keep up the good work guys I’ll be sure to buy some upgrades..Version: 2.10.0
✓ BrilliantGot this for the kids...to be honest, I use it more. It's great..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Good, though have some requestsPretty amazing, though i would like the option to upscale the font size of the stars when viewing. I can zoom to a part of sky to clarify the objects, but names of stars auto shrink / scale small again, gah my eyes need a magnifier on my iphone6. And. Can we get some alternative star names mode- eg australian indigenous stories.. eg where is the emu? - and relate that to scientific names for comparison. Also there are common colloquial names that would also help... ‘the pointers’ the ‘southern cross’.... crux... for beginners learning ... thanks for the great work so far..Version: 2.7.6
✓ NiceFantastic!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ By the far the best for looking at starsIf you want to know what stars/planets you are looking at lift up your phone and align your screen to the part of the sky you are looking at and you can get the name, history, constellation, and much more information about the celestial object. It’s a shame the devs didn’t pay enough to be Apple’s “Editors Choice” because this app is definitely the best!.Version: 2.12.3
✓ Great AppI’ve had this app since purchasing an iPad way back in 2013. It has developed and expanded over the years, but is still very good. Clear graphics. Plenty of information. Easy to use and not too daunting for a beginner or anyone wishing to encourage a child’s interest in the night sky. On the downside, I am rather surprised that an astronomy app gives any “publicity “ to that pesky star link!.Version: 2.14.4
✓ Best app for starsBest app when u wanna observe the night sky of the Southern Hemisphere..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Get this! What a great app.I am learning so much more than I thought possible! I especially enjoy getting alerts about planets being within view and how to spot them. And meteor showers and remarkable stars. I love looking at the nighttime sky and now live in a place where I have an amazing view of the sky. This app has been helping me about understand planets and stars I didn't know I could see without a powerful telescope. I highly recommend this app. Oh--and when I had questions, I got wonderful response from customer support. Far superior than anything else..Version: 2.9.0
✓ Star for star!Newsy and easy to navigate, a most used astronomy app!.Version: 2.11.9
✓ Utterly Fantastic. A must buy for every iOS device.I have had star walk 1 for a few years. This app is the same thing, just a whole lot more advanced. Make sure you get the extra content too, it is really interesting + useful. "*****" Five stars..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Love this app !!!!I have had this app for years!! It shows exactly where planets, stars and comets are.. in the sky in real time...makes it so easy to then use the telescope to find what I want to see..Version: 2.11.9
✓ Font Size.Great app. Option to alter font size would be handy..Version: 2.13.2
✓ ThankingI love this app and I am learning new information. Thank you so much Hadi.Version: 2.6.0
✓ Australian KenThe information is terrific and informative and I would like to see more about the southern hemispheres perspective. Your app is great Thanks so much Kem Marks.Version: 2.11.12
✓ ExcellentThis is my go to app when I am doing amateur astronomy and I love all the extra content that can be purchased e.g. deep sky objects, planets, extended solar system, etc. I can tell a lot of hard work has gone into making this app. It’s extremely detailed, well presented, polished navigation and superb graphics. I would love to see polar alignment functionality in the app for those of us who have telescopes with an equatorial mount. I can’t praise this app enough and to anyone considering purchasing - just do it, you won’t be disappointed..Version: 2.9.0
✓ Handy companion for my telescope.I’ve found Skywalk 2 to be of immense help in finding deep sky objects, double stars and identifying so many other star’s of interest. It’s one of my favourite apps..Version: 2.13.0
✓ SuperbShows the glory of the skies!! I am now 80 years old and still clearly remember my summer visit, as a child, to Camp Red Cloud near Plattsburgh New York where I got my first glimpse of our magnificent skies through a Ten Inch Reflecting Telescope . Breathtaking!! I was 6 years old and remember every detail of that night. This app brings back all that glory along with much more information about what is up there in that sky we take so much for granted. Keep up the great work !!!.Version: 2.12.2
✓ Starwalk helps son with traumatic brain injury and epilepsyThis app is everything you or your loved ones could ever want if they’re as in love with space as my son with a traumatic brain injury and epilepsy is. Upon his injury at 5 years old and relearning to walk, talk, eat, and potty train; one thing he never forgot was his love of our night sky and with this app he had before and after his injury he will sit for hours in the backyard playing with the app learning about the heavenly bodies and when it’s day time he will sit inside with his great grandmother (the one that got me into loving the night sky passing it along to my son) showing her things he learned the night before and while many things are difficult for him still this app helps him in his steady quest for knowledge into our cosmos. It’s easy to use and the 3d pictorial constellations make it easier for him to learn what stars make up each constellation. Thank you for this amazing app!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 2.4.4
✓ 😍 love itI think Star walk 2 is very useful and fun because you can see all the stars or planets around you. I gave it 3 stars because it is useful,fun,amazing,and educational app. The reason why I didn’t give it five stars is because it could be more satisfying but it is still a great game for kids and adults to enjoy. By Anna (a 9 year old girl)😃😜😎🤩🤔🤗💩🐚🐴🦋🐣🐭🐱🐶🦊🌹🌍🌜⭐️🌟💫☄️ Please feel free to remove this review as the 9 yr old reviewer doesn’t really know what she means by “more satisfying”. Our entire family use and enjoy the app regularly and think it’s great!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ Star walkLoving this app. With clear skies and lock down, family enjoys..Version: 2.9.4
✓ Too many notificationsHow do you stop the constant notifications for Stargazing News? It’s freaking annoying..Version: 2.14.4
✓ Life ChangingIt is rare that an app can truly change your life but this one really did! I set out to learn one constellation every time I went out at night. Each time I could see some distinct stars, I would hold up my phone with Starwalk 2 at the sky, and surely enough they would be part of a constellation. I did this for just over a week and had the whole sky mapped out. Now I am learning where the nebulas and black holes are in relation to the constellations and have also been increasingly fascinated by the history and mythology too. It feels as thrilling and infinite as the Universe itself; the night sky will never be the same again!.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Who knew Space was so big?It’s big! Really Really Big! Starwalk and other apps from Vito Technology has given me the ability to see and understand that Really Really Big universe in a way nothing before it ever could. I have been a looong time subscriber (probably since they were released) to Starwalk, Starwalk2, Solarwalk, Solarwalk2 and Skylive. They top the list of my very favorite apps! My children and I have spent hundreds of hours lying in the grass and exploring the solar system and beyond with Starwalk. The only downside is the pain in your neck that will come with spending so much time looking at the stars ;)..Version: 2.11.12
✓ Love this AppThis is the best app to look at the stars, I have been finding constellations that I have never heard off..Version: 2.9.4
✓ Great for astronomers of all kinds- professional and amateurThis app is a truly detailed and well made astronomy app. Simply point your device towards the heavens and identify everything from low-earth orbit satellites to galaxies millions of light years away..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Great app, but.This is one of the best stargazing apps I have ever used, but on your latest update the compass is calibrated wrong. Where it should be west it is showing south, it is off by about 90 degrees. Please fix this. Thank you.Version: 2.11.7
✓ Great App just a bit overpricedI mean I just paid $5 for it why do you want to squeeze another $5 out of me for the extra information...Bit of a money grab. Thus only 4 Stars.Version: 2.5.0
✓ Espace imaginaire...C'est formidable de voir cet application et de la transposer dans notre quotidien. De jour et de nuit Star Walk permet vraiment de parcourir l'espace de mon imaginaire et il est vaste 🤩.Version: 2.14.3
✓ I love this appI can spend hours on this app, I have always had a fascination with the universe, and this app gives me info that I would have trouble trying to find..Version: 2.4.5
✓ Almost Perfect, But Not for NEOWISE or PlanningOut of the astronomy/stargazing apps I’ve tried out, this one has one of the best interfaces. It’s easy to use, and the app is just gorgeous. I also love the ability to learn more about various constellations. There is also an ad supported version if you want to try it out first. For those that are annoyed by the music/sounds, it’s also easy to turn off. Now for those wanting to use it to track the NEOWISE comet, unfortunately, you have to pay again for a separate bundle to get access to it. Also for any photographers, this is not the best app for planning. I wanted to be able to use the app to see what would be in a particular part of the sky in the future. However, you cannot use both the compass and change the time simultaneously. I emailed this as a feature request, and they responded that this “doesn’t make sense” because the compass mode is “real-time”. I understand this, but it’s not very helpful when some other stargazing apps (e.g. Night Sky) do provide this ability (and also provide better control of the time)..Version: 2.9.6
✓ Well worth itOne of the best things about 2020 for me turned out to be looking at the stars with my iPad at night. There are a lot of good apps for that and so I don’t want to diminish others by saying this one is fantastic. It just happens to have a lot of fun features and the pictures of the constellations together with the music is pretty relaxing. I have learned a lot about the stars using this app. I gravitated toward paying because the ads in other apps are a little intrusive sometimes. A couple of bucks up front to be able to just focus on the sky was well worth it for me. One big plus about this app too is that it gives you a list of things to look out for each month, so you don’t have to search online for info about what’s upcoming in the night sky and be subjected to all the kooky websites you inevitably find whenever you try to find meaningful information on the internet..Version: 2.11.3
✓ The best gameThe only reason I like this is that it’s not just a game it’s a whole new world.Version: 2.13.2
✓ AmazingBest star gazing app out. Would definitely recommend to everyone.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Amazing!!!We live in Hawaii and it is so cool to use this app! Thank you developers for making this incredible application. I am getting more and more interested in astronomy lately and this app has helped me so much! Our family all loves this app and we use it to have fun at night before bed. Definitely deserves a five stars except for all the adds. Other than that... exceptional work developers! One thing that I could fix would be that we already paid for this app but we are supposed to pay more if we want to get rid of the adds... I think that is very unfair to us..Version: 2.4.5
✓ Greatest App Ever!A high quality well designed app with an incredible amount of features. Perfect to learn all you need to know about star gazing! good for beginners and just right for experienced astronomers. 5/5!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ BrilliantThis app is fantastic. It combines many different techniques in a single app. It is incredibly flexible - you don't have to wrestle with it like you do many others. It also has an incredible amount of information that has been very clearly put together so it is easily digestible. Well done!.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Yeah not badIt’s a bit weird to work the app but slowly bumbled through it. If you want info in constellations you have to purchase their full app. Pretty good otherwise 👍.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Apps très bien faite et très simple pour consulter et très intéressantSalut je trouve très bien le site pour consultation merci beaucoup de bien nous faire visiter la voûte céleste ainsi que l’espace..Version: 2.4.5
✓ Brilliant!Better than ever..Version: 1.2.0
✓ Facilite le repérageBel outil pour me familiariser avec la disposition des étoiles,planètes,constellations etc . Cela m’aide par la suite à mieux me retrouver lorsque je suis à l’extérieur.Version: 2.13.2
✓ Don’t line up probablyWhen I point it at the moon it’s way off where is suppose to be Which means the stars and other planets are not lined up either.Version: 2.11.12
✓ This is amazing!Got this app before I went into the deep mountains and this app was everything I could have asked for and more. I paid for all of the upgrades, but I’ve been in love with the stars forever and for a few dollars I can have all of my questioned answered! Just point and have the universe mapped out with 3-d graphics. Plus the search function is very helpful. Countless hours of pondering and discussion about the cosmos have ensued. Mind blown!.Version: 2.8.7
✓ Great app!!Is a great star gazer app.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Great app seriously greatMy only issue is that the alerts are not Southern Hemisphere orientated. Please fix that or tell me how to.Version: 2.9.3
✓ Using this appThe best way to use this app is when the moon is full, most stars are hard to distinguish one from another, BUT, you can see the stars from the app with the moon as a good reference point. So it helps you remember what stars it passes by when you follow a few days after the moon. I learned more in 1 year with this app, than I did in 50 years of watching stars by seasons. BECAUSE I’d touch each star as the moon passed it & this app told me the name, constellation, type, distance, etc..Version: 2.9.4
✓ Widget shows no informationI’m running the latest version of iOS 14. The widget shows no information. I hard restarted my iPhone. Didn’t solve the problem. I’ll try deleting the app and reinstalling. If I don’t update this review, you can assume deleting and reinstalling do not help. Update: Widget fixed. Rating changed to 5 stars. And KUDOS do the developer for so conscientiously responding to user comments in the reviews. Sadly, many developers do not choose to response to user comments. Those that do deserve a pat on the back!.Version: 2.11.2
✓ Journey to the starsHaving had this amazing app a while now it still never gets old, exploring the universe with great graphics and information is truly infinite. Well done on the layout as it very intuitive a must have!.Version: 2.11.12
✓ Very EducationalThankful for teaching me so much about our amazing Solar System. My favourite part of the App is “what’s new tonight”. Everyone should this App.Version: 2.12.3
✓ The best app!I absolutely love this app, the music, the features, it’s so immersive and a must have for a space lover!.Version: 2.6.0
✓ 5 ☆ App.This app. Is for everyone and definitely has to be put on your iPad. Brilliant.Version: 2.8.7
✓ My Go to Sky AppEvery night I check out the sky. Star Walk always helps me name stars, identify constellations and notice unique events. I like the way it looks, I like that I can change things like the magnitude of stars visible. The app reminded me to look for the planets that appeared close to the moon this last month. I like reading articles in the app. When there are too many clouds I can still look at the stars on my iPad..Version: 2.8.7
✓ BkIt is enjoyable and quite well done.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Phenomenal!This app is one of the best apps I have ever bought. Without a doubt, it is worth the cost. If you have a Apple Watch, you can have notifications enabled to show you when events in the sky happen and then it uses arrows to bring your eyes towards the event. Without the watch, the app is amazing too. Better than all of the other astronomy apps out there. No brainer in getting this one. :). Thanks developers!!.Version: 2.4.5
✓ Worth gettingGreat app easy to use worth getting..Version: 2.8.7
✓ Awesome stuff.Beautiful.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Not workingI loved this app then today it has just stopped working on both iPad and iPhone uninstalled to 3 times and tried to reinstall but something is making it freeze up please fix this as it’s a great app.Version: 2.7.3
✓ Worth rebukingNot sure how to make the in app purchase work..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Walk among the planets, stars and constellationsGreat app! Had it for years 🥰.Version: 2.10.0
✓ Good appJust 5$ it is amazing! Good! I hope it can be batter.Version: 2.1.3
✓ User interface is as confusing as app is great.The UI took some learning. But once I learned it, this became a very useful experience. I love the notifications and you should turn them on! Info on what to see is great but briefly presented. They’ve been improving a lot over the years in every areas. Anyway, this app is one of the ones everyone should buy and use. It represents the best of the pocket computer world we live in..Version: 2.12.0
✓ Star Walk 2This is THE best app I’ve ever purchased. If you like astronomy then this app is perfect. So user friendly and with brilliant photographs of the cosmos and excellent graphics, this app is the only one you’ll ever need to start learning about the stars. It’s brilliant! I love it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 2.8.3
✓ I really like the Star Walk 2 app! I like that I get notices of events that I might have missed.I and I use the Sky Walk 2 app almost every day. We have a great view of the night sky. On a recent trip to the Dominican Republic, I used my Sky Walk 2 app to watch the Taurus meteor shower. I was notified by SW2 that it could be seen that night close to midnight. We walked out on the beach, sat down, and within 10 minutes one streaked across the sky! It was the first “shooting star” my sister in law had ever seen. SW2 made me the hero of the night!!.Version: 2.8.7
✓ 5 Star Review & SuggestionI really, really love this app. I recommend to download it 100%. One suggestion is that the app should have the same thing as Planets in the additional contents but with moons. I would especially love to explore Europa (Jupiters Moon) Thanks for an AMAZING app. Also for the past couple days I have been trying to download the Planets additional content but it keeps saying 'Extracting' this is obviously quite annoying..Version: 1.2.0
✓ Star Walk 2 - Amazing!I have this app on my phone and on my iPad and it’s truly amazing. I get notifications when there are things to look out for, which is great. I’ve learnt so much!.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Graphical changes neededI really like this app and think it is awesome but a few things annoy me. 1. Nebulas and galaxies don’t show zoomed out and you need to zoom in all the way to see them 2. Most of the 3D galaxies look the same in the models and is really weird and annoying I love this app but pls fix.Version: 2.7.7
✓ Used the original and now the sequelHave finally upgraded my old version. Still a great app..Version: 2.9.6
✓ I’m waiting to be a grown upI just love space and my dad does to me my name is Kaia and I’m 71/2 I want to be a Mishin-control.Version: 2.11.9
✓ Works well but needs tweakingThis is the second version of this app that I have purchased and it’s very good. I would like the ISS to stay on the viewer when notifications are activated for it rather than having to search for it and then select it in order to see where it is every time I open the app..Version: 2.8.4
✓ ExcellentWhat a great educational and very interesting app. I’ve not really had an interest for space other than the odd sci-fi film but this app as sparked my interest. Originally bought for my husband but it’s something we are both enjoying now. Highly recommended and highly addictive..Version: 2.6.0
✓ I love this appI’m having no problems witch is good, I also love how when you move your screen it follows so whatever direction you’re facing.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Stopped workingPaid my money and it’s stopped working,keeps locking out and had to delete and keep downloading it now it won’t even open.Version: 2.7.3
✓ InspirationalMarvellous app for inspiration and star-gazing, the wonders of the night sky..Version: 2.4.0
✓ PerfectTeaching the basics of astronomy to my girls. ♥️.Version: 2.11.12
✓ Very niceAnother lovely app, the original is one of my favourite and most used. No.2 is basically more polished, nicer graphics etc. but from my experience so far, doesn't really add much to the original. Now I've not downloaded to my iPad yet, only my iPhone 4s. I'll probably delete no.2 and stick with the original until I upgrade to the iPhone 6, as the original runs smoother on the 4s. You can't blame Vito for pushing the technology, (it does state "optimised for iPhone 5"), but I'd rather continue enjoying the original with everything turned up to max , than this turned down to half to run smooth. If you didn't get the original, buy this and adjust the graphics to suit your phone. If you have the original on a 4/4s, I'd wait for now. EDIT: As of iPhone 8, and soon iPad Pro 11”, version 2 has surpassed the original. It’s not cheap for the full package, but well worth it and great value.Version: 2.7.0
✓ It takes really long to loadWhy does it take long to load??? I haven’t even had a chance to get into the app I’ve been waiting for over an hour for it to load I’m wondering if it’s an update or data loading can you please check the servers to see if it’s either my phone or the app loading I’ll give it four stars because it looks like a good app but I just can’t load into it..Version: 2.7.3
✓ First Person :DYay, first person in the world to download your brilliant new app. Loved your first one, keep up the good work. Thanks guys.Version: 1.0.0
✓ WonderfulThis ap is fantastic. Makes it easy for a complete novice to understand what they are looking at. The “ what’s new” alerts mean my family and I see things we would not even have been aware of. Thank you!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ MINDBLOWN!!!!This app is out of this world! Watching the stars, viewing the patterns made by the stars have blown my mind. I can’t wait to see it in REAL life. Thanks for making this wonderful app, even though it did cost a fair bit of money, it was totally worth it..Version: 2.8.4
✓ Simply beautifulIt is now a fact that you don’t need to be an expert to appreciate the night sky. This is simply a beautiful app accessible to anyone at any level of understanding of astronomy. ✨🌙🪐🌍.Version: 2.11.9
✓ Great app!!! A must when camping with the family.I love this app. It’s so informational and easy to use! The only reason I’m not leaving 5 stars was that I was a bit disappointed to find out that you cannot just point and see all satellites. I just saw a satellite in the sky, but the only way I could know what it was is by digging and clicking on every single satellite in the “find” section and seeing its orbit one at a time. I never did find out what satellite I saw. I wish it was a bit like the flight radar but of satellites..Version: 2.7.4
✓ Great app, but something is off...I really absolutely like the app, it’s very accurate, though there is a thing I’ve been wondering... why is there 2 Andromeda Galaxies? There is the 3D model one where you can click on and it shows you the accurate representation, then there is the very pixelated version which is bigger then the other, but you can’t click on it... Either way, I absolutely enjoy this app..Version: 2.11.12
✓ FantasticI absolutely love this app & use it all of the time... my 8 yr old daughter loves it too!!.Version: 2.7.0
✓ Absolutely LLLLOOOVVE this app!This app is amazing. You can look for specific things or notifications can alert you to something in the sky; either way what an experience. Hold it up to see what's in your sky including, my favorite, meteor showers. In December I saw the notification for the Geminid meteor shower, I ran outside and it was spectacular! If you want to know about something in particular it can be your resource and show 2D models as well. I can't say enough about all this app can do, it's worth more than every penny you spend!!!.Version: 2.13.2
✓ The bestThe best application for sky discovering.Version: 2.11.8
✓ A friendly suggestion!Believe me, this app is amazing. I’ve been using it for years to see the planets and stars. Although, recently I downloaded the Night Sky app, I will admit, it isn’t as good as star walk 2, but I like the music in Night Sky a little bit more than the current music. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great, but I just prefer the NS music. Would there be any way to put multiple soundtracks in the game and you can choose which music you want to hear? Kind of a silly question, but it would make me happy. Thanks for reading!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ Magical... even for the non initiatiatedA pleasure for the senses as well as a very comprehensive daily updated source of information. The graphics and music are a joy! This is a veritable spectacle. I love making music by touching the stars.......Version: 2.8.6
✓ Cool appMy 4 year old son and I love this app. He loves space more than I do. We were using this app a few days ago and he asked to see Ganymede and Callisto (by name, Jupiter is his favorite). It's very difficult to zoom into the moons of Jupiter. I purchased all the additional content, and the moons were still not there. Could those be added (at least the ones we have imagery for) This app, if you force touch the app icon, will show you stargazing conditions. Mine shows the conditions are currently poor, yet the app sends me notifications of things to go check out. Why does it do this? It’s more like HA HA, look what you’re missing instead of being informational..Version: 2.7.7
✓ Simply the bestI got the app and purchased all the ad-on many many years ago. It doesn’t cease to amaze me everything I get my phone out. 10/10 would recommend.Version: 2.11.2
✓ Awesome App!Very cool to be able to name all the lights in the night sky! Had to fiddle around to get calibration right but once it is all lined up it works brilliantly!.Version: 1.0.0
✓ What I think of this great appWhen my dad told me about this app I was astonished. It is an easy to use app. In my area it is very cloudy at night ,so this app helps me see the stars. I have recommended this app to my friends and they also love it. I don’t know why people give it hate. This app doesn’t deserve it. I spend hours walking outside looking. If I could I would give this app 10 stars. Thank you for changing the perspective of the world to me..Version: 2.11.9
✓ Go Outside and Look UpThis is THE ONLY Astronomy app you will ever need. Go outside tonight and look up. What do you see? Star Walk 2 has the answer; and, with this app, you can see what it looked like the night you were born! Can not say enough about how much information is at your fingertips and how beautifully presented. The “night mode” feature (red screen) is perfect for protecting your night vision while sitting under the stars. When I downloaded Star Walk 2 I deleted all the other astronomy apps I had wasted my time and money on..Version: 2.4.5
✓ Great!Such a beautiful app! Very useful and entertaining.Version: 1.1.0
✓ Great little Astro-CompanionPretty good little app to introduce people’s to the night sky and its glory. It’s ok..Version: 2.9.6
✓ Top notchReally informative and fresh. A new kind of love.Version: 2.3.8
✓ Almost perfectThe only disapointment is Sky Live. No mention of Uranus & Neptune. Unnecessarily large Sun and spinning planets a waste of space. Could be supplemented with other pertinent info..Version: 2.4.2
✓ Starwalk 2Very useful..Version: 2.9.6
✓ Super cool!Love showing other people whats up there. Super app. Cant seem to get anything on my apple watch other than planetary info, and their emails get returned and the Facebook page has no responses..Version: 2.7.3
✓ Great app!As a beginner in astronomy this app really helped me navigate and understand the night sky more and helped me find what I was looking for. Very accurate and reliable for its cost..Version: 2.13.2
✓ Highly recommend.This is a must have app. Love it..Version: 1.0.3
✓ MagicalWhat truly awesome apps! You'll just have to get it and see what I mean. I got the app bundle with Star Walk 2, Solar Walk and Sky Live and wow.... love it! Lots of info in the Star Walk and so so easy to use. Love the 3D effects! Seriously good apps!.Version: 2.4.0
✓ Captivating!I cannot get enough of this app, no longer will I look up at the stars and wonder what's out there, now I will know.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Charged me twiceI enjoy app, fun to bring out while you are camping. But when I bought it, it charged my CC twice. It’s not a lot of money but still..Version: 2.10.1
✓ Utterly amazingI’ve had this app for many years. It’s incredible how much information is available and the ease with which you’re able to make use of it. The flexibility of how much detail you want to see on screen really helps you to focus on specific things or just look in wonder at everything going on above your head (and under your feet). The interface is beautifully designed to be useful but not intrusive. The information about everything is written in a way most people can enjoy without over complicating. I’d definitely recommend the app and getting the additional information packs too. I’ve never once regretted the purchase. I was astonished to see so many 1 star reviews stating the most pathetic of reasons so I felt compelled to make it clear that before leaving reviews, make sure you know what you’re talking about as it makes you look foolish when the app does what you claim it doesn’t or you expect more than it was designed to do..Version: 2.14.4
✓ Can’t stop notifications!The app seems okay, but no matter what I do the notifications keep driving me nuts. I turn them off in the settings menu, and they still keep pushing through. Even though I paid for this, I guess I’ll just have to uninstall and reinstall when I want to use the app, unless it makes me purchase it each time I try to reinstall it. My job keeps me too busy to even have a life to do my Astro photography (which is why I originally purchased this app). It does help me locate things when needed, but being unable to stop the notifications seems intrusive, annoying and distracting. Swiping to clear the notification from my screen, doesn’t remove the red dot showing a notification on the folder (where I have the app organized with similar apps), which my OCD can’t seem to deal with. Edit: Thank you to the developers for helping me turn off the notifications! Much appreciated even if it took a while for a response. Now I can enjoy this app when needed and not be aggravated by notifications when they interfere with my busy schedule..Version: 2.13.2
✓ Calibration comment.Needs calibration function to line up with stars, not just after update..Version: 2.11.9
✓ Incredible appUntil you try it, it’s pointless trying to explain how amazing it is. Download, try and if you don’t like it…just delete it. But you won’t delete it 😏.Version: 2.14.4
✓ Fascinating and InterestingThis is a great ap for all ages. My 5 years old grandson loves looking at it with me and it’s educational. Personally, my wife and are have become fascinated by what we can see. It’s so easy to use and the information it presents is well done..Version: 2.11.12
✓ Star Walk 2Love every single thing about this..Version: 2.9.6
✓ WowI just downloaded and can’t stop exploring, thanks for a great app.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Peanut price to pay (considering the info)A very nice application indeed Though I recommend the add ons,. Even that electric automobile that got launched, is in the program Two thumbs up from me.Version: 2.8.6
✓ Great App!Love this app - have purchased the full version and am very happy with the content. Would be great if you could turn down the Milky Way effect, without also turning down the stars though. It also seems like a few sights in the southern sky have been omitted - like the Southern Pleiades, Eta Carina?.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Good app but a problemI have been using this app for a while but now when I try and find my current location it says it is not available and I have checked my internet connection. This is one of the best apps I have ever used but please fix this problem.Version: 2.4.4
✓ Five starsI liked this when I first got it but I did find it a bit boring to start with so I did purchase the upgrade for a meagre £2:99 and it’s well worth it. There’s a plethora of information down to the finest details and being able to see the celestial objects in a rotating 3D image is sublime. If you love the universe then you’re going to love this. Highly recommend it..Version: 2.13.2
✓ No longer troubled by annoying picsI’m glad it has a setting where the drawings are optional, so you can just have stars and planets etc named!.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Great app for even non expertsI enjoy the night sky but am far from an expert, this app enables me to easily understand whatI am seeing and when..Version: 2.12.0
✓ This game is AmazingI can’t believe I have this!!! It made my knowledge bigger and I’m named “the big brain king”! I know so much about the stars and constellations..Version: 2.13.0
✓ Sophisticated AppLatest version has a multitude of features, though that makes it a bit slower starting than the earlier version. I don't use all of the features (so I can't comment) but the interactive sky maps are really good - note: it does need to know where you are to give an accurate star map!!!.Version: 2.4.4
✓ Nebula frustrationLooking for horse head nebula is impossible on this app, why?.Version: 2.12.3
✓ Pity about the graphicsHad this app on my ipad for years and really love it - I’m always recommending it to people. I’ve just installed it on my iphone in the shape of Star Walk 2 and really don’t like the upgraded constellation graphics - they’re distracting and unattractive. I’d love to have the option of the simpler but classier ones from the first version of the app..Version: 2.8.7
✓ As above, so below.Necessary for anyone with Vision to develop Insight, Wisdom & Understanding of Celestial Mechanics, Sidereal cause & effect and Stargazing the Cosmic Logos. A portable scientific, spiritual & mythological laboratory. As above, so below..Version: 2.5.0
✓ PerfectPerfect app for knowing what’s happening next. Me and a few friends love star gazing it’s a great hobby to have and made even easier for amateurs such as ourselves to learn more thanks to this app! Sadly every app now has some form of in app purchases. The land of 100% free apps is no more....Version: 2.8.6
✓ Very usefulI always fall back to the useful program.Version: 2.9.0
✓ Beautiful app!This app is amazing! I bought myself a beginner telescope and this app is great for identifying what I’m looking at. Love that it uses my phone’s GPS so I can use the app when I’m camping in the mountains with no cell service. This app is incredibly educational with beautifully done graphics. Giving this 5 stars and would definitely recommend. Features I wish this did have was the ability to filter the view to show only certain types of objects (nebulas, comets, etc.), and the ability to favorite items..Version: 2.10.0
✓ Amazing App and CompanyI personally love this app and all it includes. I myself am studying in the field of astronomy and physics and love this app. Not to mention backyard stargazing help. When I first found out there was an issue with the apps bundle purchasing, I was met with a support system that stayed with me for 3 days due to our different time schedules for it to be swiftly resolved with just a few simple steps. I do understand the ad issue if you have the free version however I do not feel $3 is asking too much and for those willing to go above and beyond an additional $3 for so much more inclusive material..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Years later, its still the best.I admire the work..Version: 2.12.3
✓ It’s awesome but...It’s cool but the other day there was loads of satellites going over but the app didn’t track them only one of them, do you know why?.Version: 2.9.4
✓ Love this update, automatically installing purchased 3D image and 🛰️🚀🛸God bless you forever❤️🌞🌈🚀🛰️🛸🦋❤️.Version: 2.6.0
✓ Star Walk 2 harnesses the power of your iPad to make a planetarium.Star Walk 2 presents the user with a conjunction of software and hardware to make a planetarium for use inside and alongside your telescope or binoculars under the night sky. This application lets me check the ephemeris of a night object and then “see” it inside by holding the iPad up to the sky where it shows me a virtual real time night sky, in the exact position objects appear. Then I can repeat this outside and there it is. Even such an ephemeral sight as the ISS will come over the local horizon in the exact position Sky Walk 2 shows. It always amazes me, and makes viewing the night sky easy and productive..Version: 2.9.6
✓ GreatI really love the interactivity of this app. I just wish you didn’t have to pay for twice to get the full app.Version: 2.5.0
✓ Awesome app!It’s design beauty is unparalleled by any other astronomy app. Easy layout and a real pleasure to use. Definitely one of the best apps available. Thanks for putting so much effort into design and features! It would be great to see in future updates an equatorial grid to assist with using a telescope. Once again you guys are awesome!.Version: 2.7.3
✓ Great for stargazing 🪐As a kid, I loved opening up the original Star Walk app on my grandparents’ iPad. It filled me with wonder and stirred my imagination. As a young adult, I use Star Walk 2 on clear nights by myself or with friends to see what that bright “star” is up there. I’ve gotten into stargazing over the past couple years and have even learned how to set up and operate a decently powerful telescope (that my grandmother lends me😊). This app displays solar coordinates of planets, stars, and many other objects allowing me to quickly tune the telescope with pinpoint accuracy. It has definitely saved me the hassle of just eyeballing it. I love this app. One of the few I’ve spent my money on, and well worth every cent. There are additional in-app purchases that aren’t necessary. But for those aspiring astronomers 🔭 and astronauts 🧑🚀 out there, the add-ons will definitely enrich your experience. A BIG thank you to the developers for putting so much heart into this! I can’t express enough how much this app means to me!.Version: 2.12.2
✓ BrilliantWonderful app in all respects!.Version: 2.11.12
✓ Mother and son both love it.Got the full package for me and my little one. He’s now obsessed with the planets and stars ! Amazing for us both. Love the fact you can spin planets and satellites on orbit, with the moving stats behind. The layout is easy to work for my son, he’s only 6, he points out the constellations and the North Star when we’re out walking..Version: 2.8.2
✓ Excellent toolHad this for years. Essential kit for all astronomers. Really well designed, easy to use and always informative 👍.Version: 2.10.0
✓ EducationalEnjoy this app! tweaks needed so it doesn’t “ding” me everyday. mistakenly turned on cartoons and can” get rid of them. now the good stuff. every day my wife and i enjoy sunset. our view is of the southern sky and its a pleasure to see the changes in changes from season to season. anomalies are called to our attention as well as following satellites, including Hubbles path across the sky. much fun fir seniors… a great learning tool for parents with kids! good work..Version: 2.13.2
✓ Love the appLove this app but I wish I could more easily see/discover satellites and deep space objects. In starwalk 1 you could see satellites after zooming in a little and you’d see a graphic for them, however, in this app you see a tiny white dot after zooming in a little so the satellites are hard to make out from the stars..Version: 2.6.0
✓ The best thingStar Walk was (almost?) the first app I bought when I got my first iPad in 2011. Now I have the second version, and I have never regretted either. It's one of the few apps that makes me think that I'm not just wasting time staring at a screen. It's great..Version: 2.11.2
✓ South west vic ausReally makes looking at the night sky so interesting . 🥰.Version: 2.11.12
✓ Love it!!I love this app!! But tonight my phone won’t let me zoom in on the deep sky objects to see their shapes and colours. I’ve had this app a couple of months and use a iPhone 6. Any suggestions? Thanks :).Version: 2.5.0
✓ App is greatThis app is a great Stargazing app. I upgraded from the previous version and am happy with my purchase-I don’t see ads! I did have a single situation where ads popped up, but an iPad restart fixed it. The app is easy to use, just point it to the sky to see what’s up there. It will give you a real time experience as you move it. You can adjust the number of objects seen to compensate for light pollution. There is a search function that will guide you to the sky object you wish to see by following the arrow with your device. A great experience!.Version: 2.9.6
✓ Exceptionaly easy to useBeautiful app with easy to use..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Best star app everIf you have an interest in anything to do with stars of space you really need this app is great full of info graphics are very good and information is overflowing..Version: 2.4.4
✓ One minor issueI absolutely love this app, I use it all the time, yet there is one minor issue. Even though I click the little compass in the top left corner to use the star spotter, I cannot move my camera. The screen is stuck facing North. Everything else is fine, it’s just the star spotter is stuck. I hope this can be fixed. Maybe it’s a problem with my phone, maybe it’s a bug, i don’t know. Anyways that’s it. Thanks for reading! - your wanna be astronomer.Version: 2.7.7
✓ Excellent sky guideI’ve used this app for a few years now, and the original one before that. Both are excellent apps and extremely good value for money. Not sure what a star is? Point your phone at it and Star Walk tells you what it is, giving very detailed information said star or planet. I particularly love the ability to see the constellations from different angles, like from the side. It helps your visualise how the stars of the constellation are actually situated in space! I’ve found a few surprises myself. I can’t recommend this app highly enough, it has never crashed on me, and of course, I got rid of the ads years ago, it was definitely worth every penny! Happy star gazing..Version: 2.11.12
✓ MarvelousJust love it all detales.Version: 2.12.0
✓ Astonishing!I'm an astronomy nut and I have a LOT of astronomy apps, but this is by far the most BEAUTIFUL. It's not all eye candy either, the information about objects is concise and informative, without bombarding the user with data overload. I may go to other apps first for practical observing, but for teaching and delighting in the wonder of the stars, this is the one!.Version: 1.0.0
✓ Used to be goodThis app was a driving factor in getting an iPhone in the first place 5 years ago, it’s still great but bloody adverts!! And some of the usability isn’t so intuitive. Maybe I’m being a bit harsh, I use this regularly and am just a bit grumpy today when it asked for a review (which I’m sure I already did!).Version: 2.5.0
✓ CalibrationI have an issue with regards to celebration sometimes. But I love everything beside the calibration. Sometimes it’s accurate sometimes it is not. Cool app tho!.Version: 2.9.4
