I've used this app for at least five years and it is perfect for planning photo shoots around heavenly bodies. I use it all the time for planning Milky Way shots. It has saved me countless hours of manually figuring out all the details of a MW shoot. Also the AR feature really comes in handy when scouting a location ahead of a night shoot.

Astonishingly useful app. The more I use it, the more amazed I am at the level of detail and functionality (and they add more regularly)! Takes a bit of work to become proficient with it but there are lots of good video tutorials online (for real, you should watch them.) Any effort you put in will be highly rewarded. A "must have" for serious photographers.

LOVE this app! Some suggestions though - 1) It would be easier if calendar/date can be changed/set by scrolling individually by month, day, and year, instead of scrolling only by month; its easier to backtrack and/or see future moon phase or sunrise/set times this way especially for dates a year apart or 2. 2) How about a tide forecast too? Helpful to plan those seascape shoots on a certain spot accessible only at low tide; or determine how high/low tides are on a future date.

I've been using the app for about six months, and I must say it's extremely useful and well thought out. Following the tutorials might give you the impression that it's too complex, but once you understand the basics, it's really quite simple. Then you'll just skim the tutorials for specific advice. There are a couple things about the interface that seem clunky, but when you actually make a plan, and see how much useful information it gives you, you will seldom need another photography app.

Great program, it's improved my milky way photography so much! And it has so many other useful tools. They have great YouTube videos. But what I learned is they have great tech help. Had a problem with my AR, found them on Facebook and that I could message them which I did and was able to msg with them about my issue. They were patient and had me go through some tests and was able to figure what the problem was. So impressed! Best $9.99 I ever spent!

Post program is a terrific tool and has helps me produce some terrific images. However, the YouTube videos are terrific but I honestly can't understand half of what he's saying because of his dialect. It's a real problem at least for English speaking viewers. I've tried captions but he speaks too fast and the voice recognition is not very good. Bottom line is I don't get the message other than just watching what he's doing so I'm missing so much he has to offer.

Fantastic, but missing weather. I absolutely love this app design, very intuitive, and the amount of tools availble is unlike any other photography app I've tried. So many helpful measurements, and the ability to create shoot plans is so handy. This app would be perfect if it also included a weather forecast, and the ability to create weather/activity tracker parameters (like in the "Weather Underground" app) so you can plan your shoots around when the weather conditions would be perfect.

Terrific app! Indispensable for landscape photography. I use it for planning things like moon and milky way alignments. Took a little while to learn because the tutorials are abundant but not super straightforward. Ultimately worth the effort. It is way more accurate than the two-dimensional apps I used to use because it can for differences in vertical elevation. Thanks!
