RIP offGot charged £56 by default. No idea that is what they would do. Not worth a penny

Money hungryUsed to be great for the money. Now they want extra $$$ basically to look at the sky. What was a great service compromised by greed 😐

Pay to useYou have to subscribe to use it despite appearing to be a free app.

LovelyThis app is soo good!

Sky guideThe sky guide app is fun, entertaining, but yet very helpful, informative

Love this appThis app along with its music has such a nostalgic vibe to it. Use it couple times a week but it’s best when you’re outback when you can really see everything. Only this is when I’m outback we see things move across the sky and when you want to know what it is some times it doesn’t show what it is
