An editorial reading of the saved reviews

Sky Tonight is valued as a teaching app: lots of info, meteor-shower dates, explanations of phenomena, and people say they learned a lot. But lately it lets them down on reliability and accuracy: for some it freezes within half a minute, shows planets in the wrong constellations, and inflates the visibility index to 95% when the weather is clearly otherwise, plus ads get in the way of even finding your feet.
