An editorial reading of the saved reviews
Some like the deep zoom and pointing the phone to identify a star or planet and see every constellation. But nearly everything costs extra, even Moon facts, and several people say the app never aligns with the stars or works at all. Many complaints about charges while the app fails and about a subscription that is hard to cancel.

What users experience
2 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
I really like how it works and how many things you can see, but my only problem is how many paywalls there are. For things like nebulas I can somewhat understand but learning about the moon, not so much. Still pretty great tho, just wish ya didn’t have to pay for like half the app. I did notice it
I purchased for a Boy Scout event. Every time I open the app, it says I need to subscribe. Then I hit subscribe and it says I’m already subscribed. I did about 5 times before I gave up. Awful!
