About Master Night-Sky

Have you ever had an interest in Astronomy but never had the time to learn the night sky before? In that case, this might be the perfect app for you.


It includes:

✔ A planisphere that shows you the night sky for any location, date or time.

✔ A perspective view that shows you the night sky in any direction.

✔ Easily see how the sky changes for different times, dates, locations or directions.

✔ Works with your GPS and compass to show you the constellations in front of you.

✔ Allows you to override the sensors to take control over what you see.

✔ Has a dictionary of the constellations that lets you dig deeper to see the artwork and mythology surrounding some of them.

✔ Includes games that helps you learn and remember the constellations and where they live in the sky.

✔ Even has a miniature guide that gives some pointers on learning your way around the night sky.


Not just that however...

✔ It's free.

✔ It works entirely off-line - no Internet permission needed here!

✔ It needs virtually no permissions at all - only interested in the permission to get your location to give the right map.

✔ It's tiny - less than a 2MB download so far.

I very much like the fact that this app is small and it has good features. Unfortunately it did not rotate by itself. There's no Sun or moon on its maps. Samsung Galaxy Reverb.

Change my opinions. Is excellent. For all

It would be a good app for learning the constellations. But every 3rd question requires identifying from a full hemisphere map shrunk down so *tiny* that constellation patterns and individual stares are virtually impossible to identify. There seriously needs to be a zoom feature for those questions that show an entire hemisphere, otherwise getting those questions right are random luck. Developer take note.
