Nice app, great visuals and very interesting to have both AR mode and heliocentric mode. That said, the AR mode (or NIGHT-SKY mode) stopped working on me this week on my Galaxy S6. It only show a black background and I need to uncheck the "use motion and position sensors" to be able to see anything (but it's not a real AR mode then). Would rate 5 stars otherwise.
Not only does it have the sky map but the orientation of the planets is shown as well. I like being able to move forward in time to see how the planets will align in the sky. Sometimes the sky view compass gets buggy temporarily and the map doesn't point in the right direction. The problem always fixes itself somehow.
I used to love this app, and then apparently after one of the updates, I lost the ability for movement and position sensors. Just black screen no stars no planets fix your app!
switch phone to gps only then try sky view again. switch back to high accuracy with wifi gps etc. still working. gps never worked on tablet though so that would be nice.
Sky Viewer is showing a black screen. Get a patch, and I'll bump this gladly back to 5 stars
It is ok but slow. Needs performance improvements
Nice to have the paid version at last, just hope they don't spoil it. Don't bother with the free one ruined by adverts, this one's well worth the money.
Super App but doesn't work in 'live mode'. also, the Sun seems a bit small in 'realistic setting'. should be 4 Stars but it is what it is.
I down loaded the first solar system scope and loved it! Now I get the PRO.... Awesome people..... keep updating this great app. I have used it hundreds of times in the past 2 years. Just never got to rate it. I have told many others about it as well. Thanks for making it... much enjoyed...
Your Constellation view doesn't work with paid version. It works on the free version, with Ads. I don't want to install 2x of apps. B. S.!
Wheres the dwarf planet thats being blacked out by google earth?
As far as Pro unlock keys go this is absolutely incredible!!! Thanks!
I love knowing what's out there...I'll find it
It would be a lot better if it would show the encroaching planets
This is by far the best looking and easiest to use. I love it
Love it!
I used to love this app, but when I upgraded the a new phone and reinstalled it I lost the ability to see the sky in real time. I move my phone and the app won't show me what I'm looking at I have to swipe manually. Please fix.
The motion tracker for the planets and constellations does not work, just a black screen. Once fixed I will definitely purchase.
For my child and my studies for Biorritm and watch the moon with the biologic women cicle.
The App worked great until my phone was updated to 5.0.1 Lollypop, then it stopped working. I tried to reinstall the app, but with no luck. Now the app will not go past the Start Screen. I have tried to contact the developers a few weeks ago via email, but I've not received any response... I really hope they fix this problem with Lollypop 5.0.1
Its been quite awhile since I used this app, but the last time I did it worked great. Last week I had a software update on my Samsung Note 4, and I hadn't used this app since before the last update. For the first time in a few months tonight I used Solar System Scope Pro and I can't get past the start up page. I don't know what update messed this up. I tried reinstalling, but I didn't have any luck. I installed the free version and that seems to work fine, but I want the Pro version I paid for! Please fix!
Great app. Stopped working when my phone updated its Android version. Please fix, it really is good!
Was fine until my Samsung Tab2 updated to 4.2.2. Now it just hangs up at the startup screen. :-(
Great job! Please add widget where selected options can be shown like moon phase! Also, I want to see real moon lighten view... Please!! Enhance moon info and visual informatovity!! Keep it the beat app in such category!
It is very interesting, indeed. But I am unable to explore some of the features claimed in the Description...
I've been waiting for an app like this for ages!
Spent credits I earned for the full version, money well spent!
I had the free version for less than 2 minutes, it only took that long to discover I wanted the paid version. Absolutely brilliant, very nice job. My youngest daughter is learning about the solar system at school and this is perfect for that.
I would suggest a unit converter and it would be cool to see some of earths satellites/telescopes, maybe even voyager. It would also be neat to see links to SoHo. But don't take this as a bad review this is an awesome app that's why I bought it.
Very goog
Today I bought this App after enjoying the free version for 30 days...PERFECT! BEAUTIFUL! AWESOME!...Buy this app if you enjoy astronomy. Nothing else compares. Thank you for this....appreciated...HTC 1
The web version now available on my phone as a fully functional and visually rich app. Thanks INOVE.
Brilliant app
I have been recommending this to all my friends. Absolutely impressed. Nexus 5
4 stars because it doesn't support GPS and the titles of the "major stars" are unreadable. And consider adding Greek language.

I originally posted this back in May of 2015... It still does not work for my phone. I still never received any response to my email either!.... Please update for Lollypop 5.0.1! I loved this app but it stopped working when my phone was updated to Lollypop 5.0.1! I tried reinstalling but with no luck... I've also tried contacting the developers directly but with no response!!
