Star Rover calculates all sky objects in REAL-TIME, which means the objects on the screen including moon phases, planets positions, stars and so on are exactly the same as the real ones.

Star Rover makes the virtual sky a gorgeous view. You can see star twinkling, beautiful nebulae, occasional meteor and even sunset glow in the evening.

Star Rover is very easy to use. It determines your location automatically and supports pinch-to-zoom for more details. You can simply tap the buttons on the screen to change the sky view.

Glitchy (3 stars)
Compass keeps offsetting so pretty much useless. Overhead view just cuts and doesn't scale past 90 degrees. Star charting and identification is cool so i'll bump to 3 stars. Please improve

Very fun way to learn about the stars! (5 stars)
I'll admit, I don't know much about the things above the skies. This app makes it easy to learn.

Now do you belive me? (5 stars)
I used to go out and point at constellations with friends while walking along trails or in their front yard and say, "there is Cassiopeia... there is Orion... and the Pleiades... over there is Ursa Major and Ursa Minor... and there is Pegasus... ", most would say... yeah how do you know that? Well, with this apps in hand... now, I'll just make a total apps of myself... :)) Great apps!!
