User Reviews

SkySafari 7 Pro is a comprehensive astronomy app praised for its detailed database, telescope control, and multi-device use. However, users express significant frustration with intrusive, loud notifications that ignore device settings, subscription model misunderstandings, and increased UI complexity making it less intuitive. Stability issues and certain feature malfunctions are also noted. Despite these drawbacks, many appreciate its rich content and enhancements over previous versions, finding it valuable for both casual observers and telescope users.

Pros

Comprehensive and feature-rich astronomy app with a vast database including deep space objects and Apollo mission content.
Excellent telescope control capabilities with wireless mount connectivity (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth).
Multiple device synchronization and support for family plans allowing installation on multiple devices.
Offline database functionality allowing stargazing without an internet connection.
Highly detailed and visually rich user interface with high-quality astronomical images.

Cons

Persistent and loud notification sounds that do not obey system settings even when disabled, causing disturbance.
Subscription model confusion and frustration as some users believe additional subscriptions are required on top of one-time purchases.
UI/UX issues including increased complexity compared to previous versions, unintuitive controls, difficult navigation, and some poor color choices making display hard to read in low light.
App instability and crashes on some devices; occasional freeze and forced closures.
Certain features such as Apollo mission audio narration and 3D trajectories not working reliably; offline content limitations. Issues with zoom buttons getting stuck and inability to remove unwanted UI elements like orange highlight circles.

I do love this app. I paid $30 for a Pro subscription in March. I had to get a new phone, and now I'm being told I don't have an active subscription, though my Google Play does show the transaction in my history. While I did enjoy and use many of the Pro features, I will NOT be paying $30 again just to be robbed of what I paid for. I will continue to use the free version.

I used Stellarium Mobile for years but bought this for telescope control, but holy moly, this is so much better in just about every way. It provides pictures of almost everything you can search for, it highlights deep space objects in a non intrusive way which makes locating stuff crazy easy, and it has far more objects turned on by default (whereas it was always a pain getting the right catalog loaded into stellarium). I'm super happy with this, definitely the premier sky finder app.
