    So does the aura boralis doesn’t count as an event? Sad. What do I pay this app for honestly.
  • Notifications - about what?

    Constant notifications about floating junk… but the day we get the aurora borealis in the US… not one peep from this thing. That might have warranted some kind of - Hey look! Thanks Star Walk… for nothing. The app used to work decently, but I must not be paying for the ‘right’ night stuff.
  • Needs a “tonight’s Sky” section

    Only tells about certian planets and the moon. Numerous times I find out from other platforms about nightly sky events I can/ would’ve seen had I known about, but this app doesn’t provide that info fo some reason….
  • Informative

    Love it- can search for anything and get directions- different modes outline the constellations and their structure with views of the stars that define them
  • Nice but difficult to navigate.
