Awesome app and I use it often! There are things I'd like pointed out and hopefully updated however. One is the misalignment of a couple layers for deep sky objects, particularly with Andromeda. I continue to see Andromeda in two locations, with a hazy oblong layer offset from the more detailed starry galaxy layer. They're quite far apart too, so it kind of ruins the immersion I can feel. Might occur with other deep sky objects, but Andromeda is the easiest to spot.

ive had this app since I was 12 and I've loved it ever since. my favorite thing was when I used to have a telescope and be able to point it to the sky whenever I was informed the planets were aligning or different stars even the ISS was above me. I used to have a lifetime subscription that I payed 5 bucks for but now I can't redeem it probably because I've had the same account for years. definitely worth installing and buying premium even. so many different features and studies to learn from. ty

It's a super moon tonight, but the app puts the moon in a greatly different place in the sky. The app shows that the moon is high in the sky, but actually, it is well below the tree line. Otherwise, the app looks beautiful. It would be wonderful if the stars actually lined up with their actual locations. I do like your platform, and I am greatly looking forward to any improvements.

The position of objects depends on the location that has been selected in the Star Walk 2 settings, as well as the data returned by your phone's hardware compass. Please check your location settings and calibrate the compass by following the instructions on the screen in AR mode.

What's new

We've made some important updates to make Star Walk 2 smoother and more reliable. You might not see these changes, but you'll definitely notice the app runs better.

Thanks a bunch to everyone who regularly explores the sky with us — you rock!

Keep your app updated and happy stargazing!
