About Exoplanet Guide

Exoplanet Guide is probably the most complete exoplanet data reference for Android phones.

It is based on the database published by the Planetary Habitability Laboratory @ UPR Arecibo.

Planets for which sufficient data is not currently available (such as missing mass or semi-major axis) are filtered out, but may show up with future database updates. The database can be updated online.

One of the key features is the graphical representation of the habitable zone of a parent star. Exoplanet Guide comes with a fully featured star chart plotting stars down to magnitude 6.4 plus all Messier objects!

Export all exoplanets with illustrations to KMZ format for use with Google Sky (part of Google Earth for the desktop) and explore with the convenience of a larger screen.

The Kepler Field of View overlay changes automatically with Kepler's seasonal rotation (subtle changes, though).

Can anyone tell me how to find the stars? I type the name of a star but can't find in in sky viewer for example kepler-22B that star do not existe but if there is a star with the name HD...... then the skyviewer will direct me to that star.it will be much beter if the name of the star is mentioned so that we know where to look at.

I don't understand why, when it does show the planet's host star's location on a star chart, why didn't the developer take that final step of using the starchart in conjunction with our phone's sensors to implament the augmented reality feature like other apps do, like google skymaps and nightsky tools. That feature is one huge glairing omition from an otherwise fine app.

Amazing app. From the time I purchased the application to now, almost two years later, the designers have chipped away at slowly improving the app. So pleased. Thanks guys.. Worth the investment. Besides, there is no other exoplanet database app on the market.
