Star Guide: Night Sky Map
doubtful ratingIn practice this is two different things in one app, some expect a sky map while others buy a named gift star, and the gift buyers are delighted like with a warm anniversary present. But the sky map is off by direction, showing south instead of west, fails on iPad and crashes when changing a setting. A separate sore point is that a promised three-day free trial charges 1.99 right away.

About the rating
Store average 4.55 against a text average of 2.04 with only 19 percent five stars, and some of those fives are junk character strings (heehehheheehehhehe) while the real reviews complain about being charged despite the promised free period.
