An editorial reading of the saved reviews
People have kept this as their favorite planetarium for years for its depth: you can fly out to nearby stars and galaxies and watch the sky in real time from your phone. But the new version hurt many users, reinstalling loses telescope control and shrinks the time range to the year 1600, the comet database moved behind a subscription, and the compass can be off by about 20 degrees. There is also billing confusion, the free trial charges you right away.
