About Exoplanet Hunter
We live in one of the most exciting times ever, hundreds of exoplanets has been found. An extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, is a planet outside our Solar System. Even planets very similar to our own Earth have been confirmed which raises questions about the existence of extraterrestrial life.
The purpose of the application is to give the user a comprehensive and accurate overview over discovered exoplanets. Planethunter is fetching new data from an JSON API and displays easy to read information pages for all found planets and its stars. The application shows an 3D simulation of each solar system. You can search for the planets locations in the sky by using GPS and the phones sensors.
This application comes with great search features that will make it easy to find interesting and potentially habitable planets.

This app is terribly designed. You can't interact with the graphics. It contains very minimal useful information. The information that is provided, is clearly canned text and repeated throughout the different segments. As if the designer got tired of looking for useful info on each individual planet. Worse off, it wasn't even edited for misspellings and incomplete sentences. Needs to be revamped. This was a lazy effort at best. Looking forward to the new updated mind exploding version on a interactive platf

This app doesn't even have the potentially habitable planets I've searched HD 40307g,Kepler 22b and gliese 581g and it said no planets found you know you could have done a better job on this app you could have at least made it to search for planets in this galaxy so...description in a nutshell this app went down the drain.I'm not trying to be harsh this is just how I am when it comes to showing how angry I am with the problems with a certain app.

I was hoping that the app would let you search up things in our own solar system, but the truth is that you .can't so I decided to take away 1-star.

Exoplanet Database is up to date (except for TRAPPIST-1 discoveries in 2017). There's just two problems I have with this app. 1. You have to press 'show more' about 720 times just to get a complete list, which is very tedious. 2. Planets from the Solar System are missing. If you can fix these problems, I will give this app 5 stars.
