Dark Skies

This tool is perfect for astrophotographers to get a quick exposure time on the go. It could be better if the developer would add the option to type in a focal length in addition to using the slider to adjust focal length. Also, "length" is mispelled in the about section of the app. Minor quality of life improvements that if made would allow me to rate this app 5 stars.

Poor implementation with only few cameras and poor UI. No good for Nikon or Sony

This is handy when I don't have a pen and paper handy. The camera list is a bit out of date.

The array of cameras they have is extremely limited. No Sony, only two Nikon. Instead of bloating your phone with this poopy app, you might as well do the math yourself to find your ideal shutter for astrophotography.

No Olympus - Oly has a crop sensor making lens focal length 2x (14mm is 28mm equiv) Says in app description you can select exact crop factor, but there's no where to do so. The Flashlight doesn't work. Every time I try to turn it on, not only does the flashlight not turn on but the app crashes as well.

Nice idea but there are only 2 Nikon cameras both of which are DX format.

Nikon D7100 is missing

Please add Pentax K-1 camera.

For nikon it might be better to simplify: Nikon FX or Nikon DX (instead of having two DX bodies and no FX)

Very small camera selection. No way to change the rule from 600 to 500.

Must be a Canon owner. Uninstalled

Not useful for me. No Sony A6000 in the camera list.

Used to be a weather app. What happened?

Very few camera choices prob not being updated. Very simple calculation nothing fancy.

I downloaded this looking for a weather app? Should be listed differently there is an iOS app called dark skies I used to have on my iPhone I guess its not available on android too bad its the best weather app

can't find my camera :(

Not enough camera choice No Micro four thirds

Stayed on a home page... couldnt do anything with it...wth?

Absolutely worthless. Please don't waste your time!

Not the IOS weather app

Only cannon, Pentax , sigma and Nikon 5100 that's it . And why haven't you included any of the Nikon fullframe ???

Not a single sony camera

Why is this listed at a weather app?

Does what it says on the box. Although I must admit I was looking for the app dark sky, but that's sadly only for iPhone :-)

Locked up the camera on my s5. Would give negative stars if possible. Crap

Adding a stopwatch would be great as well as a night mode (red and black coloring only) also since most people live in the northern hemisphere and choose to shoot the center of the milky way you might want to use the rule of 500 as opposed to the rule of 600 since those stars are further from the earth's axis. I only use the rule of 500 though in the winter 600 is ok.

Poor UI, bad controls, lacking too many cameras.

No mention of any Canon that I am sure has a 35mm sensor such as 6D, any 5D. No Nikon 5000 series or 7000 series. There is a Canon 70 (does it exist?), no 70D. There are separate lists Canon, Canon EOS, a distinction Canon does not make. Max lens length covered is 300mm.

You already have this app installed on your device. It's called "Calculator". You calculate 600/(focal length) = exposure time (in seconds). And that's only if you have a APS-C sensor. What a joke. Also highly suspect that the app is 5MB and needs access to your camera and can send information through networks. Looks like this is just for the developer to peep on you using your own camera without your knowledge.
