Features & Capabilities

Starry Map is a celestial observation app that uses augmented reality to identify stars, constellations, planets, satellites, and other objects in real time. Point your device at the sky to see names and information overlaid on the live camera view, or swipe to explore in any direction.

Explore all 88 constellations, stars up to magnitude 12, Messier objects, asteroids, comets, dwarf planets, and more than 10,000 satellites. Receive alerts for visible ISS and Hubble passes, meteor shower peaks, and discover asterisms such as the Big Dipper and Summer Triangle. The app works offline, though satellite data requires an internet connection to update.

User Reviews

Users praise Starry Map for locating ISS, Neowise, and other objects and note it is easy to use, with recent fixes restoring functionality. However, widespread stability problems are the dominant theme, including crashes on launch and when selecting comets, particularly after updates. A few complaints mention Wi‑Fi connectivity limitations and a lock/purchase hiccup after searching for Neowise.
Pros
  • Useful for locating and tracking ISS, Neowise, and other celestial objects.
  • Core functionality appears to be restored after updates/fixes.
  • Easy to find Neowise and generally user-friendly.
  • Kids and families can easily use it.
Cons
  • Crashes on startup / the app won't open for many users.
  • Crashes when selecting NEOWISE (the listed comet).
  • Update introduced instability and broke usability for some users.
  • Limited connectivity: works on cell data but not consistently on Wi‑Fi.
  • Purchase/lock bug after searching Neowise to buy.

I frequently used the app to track the ISS and other items of interest. Unfortunately, the last update rendered the app completely useless.
