Please read this

Thank you so much for making this app. Sadly, I have not seen the things
I have hoped to see but this isn’t your guys fault. Yes I live somewhat in the country but the city is a few miles away so k yeah, I can see many stars but not the amount that takes your breath away. Sometimes on clear nights when the light pollution is low I can see a lot of stars but this app has made me plan to travel to places far north (Alaska, Canada) to see the northern lights and to find the darkest skies possible. If anyone is reading this, please get this app. I bought the full version and it is totally worth it. I’ve seen many people post reviews saying they didn’t see what they wanted. You will never ever be able to see what you want if you don’t look hard enough and if you don’t practice. Practicing meaning reading books (I prefer National Geographic) memorize the shapes and work hard and chances are, you’ll be an amazing stargazer, and who knows? You could probably be an amazing astronomer! I’m a mere amateur stargazer but I’m working and taking advantage of any clear night I get! If you’d like to be a
future astronomer or just stargaze for you own pleasure, this is the app for you! (it’s totally worth buying the entire version!) So download the app and get out there and stargaze
💙💙🌙⭐️✨✨🌕🌓💫🤩🤩🤩

Worth it

This is the best star app I have ever seen. You can scroll around the sky manually or tilt your phone to show the position of the stars and even the sun and moon. You can also change the level of “light pollution” to see more or less stars. Tapping on a celestial body yields more information (this is the part where you get ads- Mostly banners.) The planets also show up! Even the fabled planet 9 makes an appearance (no, not pluto :( ) constellations and stars are named, and are traced out as you look at them. An unobtrusive picture of what the constellation “looks” like also appears. This is so useful!!!

Here later, while taking an astronomy class: Honestly, I don’t think I could love an app more. There’s so much detail put into everything. Without the little alerts, I never would have noticed the goings on in the night sky, and might’ve never even taken the class! 10/5, absolutely the best. I use this often enough that the app has probably gotten more money from the ads (which only show up when you tap on a star, and even then not every time) than they would if I just bought the full version.

Buyer beware, ads after purchasing

Star walk 2 is my go to app to find what I am seeing in the sky. It’s not great, most everything is behind a paywall, but it does the trick. That has now changed with my first purchase of the “satellite” pack purchase. Since I purchased it, every swipe/gesture/press or anything at all triggers an ad where there was not one before. It completely ruins the app. I did not spend my money on your product to suddenly be inundated every 3-5 seconds with a full page trump/pence ad. I would be upset with any extra ads after spending hard earned money...but it is a slap in the face to have my phone display the name of a criminal egomaniac every few seconds. I have requested a refund and will be deleting your app after my refund is processed. I’ll make sure to avoid all apps from this publisher for life. Good day, you’ve lost a customer.

Response to publisher : I did see ads the entire time I’ve used your app, so your bug guess is not accurate. what I did NOT experience before paying you for an upgrade was trump slogans splashed across my screen multiple times between every touch of the screen. I don’t use your app any more, I’ve got no interest in ads to the point of making the app unusable. I also have no desire when I’m stargazing to have politics shoved in my face repeatedly, there’s enough of that these days.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback! It seems you encountered some bug that helped you avoid ads for some time. Normally, the ads are present from the beginning until you disable them by making the corresponding in-app purchase. Unfortunately, we have to use ads to make revenue. If you want, you can try our subscription system and use Star Walk 2 without ads for only 1 dollar per month.
