Several of the reviews on the App Store have raised questions about the accuracy of what it shows. Some of those issues may be related to daylight savings time– or improper location (apparently limited user control)–and not necessarily improper object positions.

Check out the Cloudy Nights forum on astronomy software for information on other apps. Also check out the fine review at http://physics.weber.edu/schroeder/iPhoneStarApps/

I think it’s easier to use than star walk, but might not be as detailed or accurate in terms of exact locations of stars.

This review like many is disappointing. With 50k apps out there we need you to compare this app to at least the most popular others so we can make a decision.

So I have heard of Star Walk, but how does this compare?
