Starlight® - Explore the Stars App Reviews

I love this app the only problem is the calibration is off . I point it to NE and it tells me its NW , i point it E it tells me its W now I face sun rise so unless sun rise is to the west The Calibration needs to be fixed 5-4-15 the calibration is still off unless the earth completely shifted I point my iPod n iPad east and it says its West I point it South a And it says North and now I cant even find Taurus in the sky

Way cool. U point it at the sky and you not only get the names of the stars and planets but you can see the shapes of the actual constellations. Amazing app!

This app is just awesome for any star aficionado, young or adults. The representation of the constellations and the visual aspect of it is just amazing.

Very cool App for any position in the sky in BOTH hemispheres. Helps to enjoy the nighttime sky more fully

Love this app. Its easy to locate whats above your exact location and also easy to search for any constellation youre looking for. Beautiful display. Love it!

I dont usually write reviews for apps but Starlight is so fun, I have to share my opinion. Ive always wondered what planets and stars I could see in the night sky but could never be sure. With Starlight, I now know. Besides showing constellations, the app also shows planets. Pull the screen out with your fingers to zoom in to see planets and stars. Also, check your direction to be sure your app is calibrated correctly. If you are directionally challenged, compare to your compass app. Your starlight screen shows the direction you are pointing with a small letter in white on the horizon. If you are off, fully close the app by double clicking the center button on your device then swipe up to close. Now reopen Starlight. Then app should recalibrate for you.

Five stars for this app because its fun and educational !!

I am a huge lover of stars. I follow the constellations and know all the stories and am pretty much a big star nerd but I love it. This app has made it so easy to not only see the stars in front of our faces so I can point them out to friends without doing that whole putting your heads together and pointing thing, but also shows me the stars I cant see because of the city lights. This app is truly recommended and highly appreciated!

love it!!!

Its great youre a fool not to download it

The app is a lot of fun,I wanted to see the constellations and the stars, and planets, but I agree with an earlier review, the calibration is way off. If you hold the screen steady and lock it on the horizon or the sky it drifts around and is not sure of the direction. Maybe the version I have is wrong or has a bug, but I tried it on my iPhone if you did the same thing.

No stories for children

Its a great concept, and easy to use but everythings upside down.

Very east to use great resolution only shows constellations you are looking at very nice look

I have enjoyed using the app. Through using it Ive learned so much about the stars. It really got me interested in astronomy.

This app is awesome!! Very fun and zero glitches. You can scan over any part of the sky and see detailed views of all constellations. There is no wait time for them to appear either. Plus you can click each one for more info. I love this and so does my 4 year old son

One of the best star apps in the iOS app market

Its showing me that the Sun is about 20 degrees North of where it actually is this evening...... I am trying again the next day, now it is way off. NEEDS CALIBRATION.

My teacher recommended it and I was skeptical but Im glad I got it

My husband and I sit outside in the morning and drink coffee while the sun comes up. This app is awesome to help us puck out planets and constellations.
