ON-DEVICE ASTRONOMY
Astronomical calculations and your selected sky target stay on your device. SkyFinder does not require an account or subscription.

SkyFinder needs camera, precise location, and device-motion access to provide directional guidance. Accuracy can vary with GPS quality, compass calibration, nearby magnetic interference, device sensors, and camera field of view.

SkyFinder is an observational aid and should not be used for navigation or safety-critical decisions. The app is free and supported by advertising.
