Features & Capabilities

SkySafari 7 Plus is a comprehensive space simulator and telescope control app designed for amateur astronomers. It combines a vast celestial database with immersive real-time sky simulations, allowing you to explore comets, stars, constellations, and planets up to 10,000 years in the past or future. The built‑in Events Finder highlights visible moon phases, eclipses, meteor showers, and notable planetary phenomena tonight and far into the future.

Version 7 adds ASCOM Alpaca and INDI telescope support, real-time OneSky observations, SkyCast sharing, Sky Tonight planning, and improved notifications and observation tools. It also introduces Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets and makes previously paid features like the H‑R diagram and 3D Galaxy view free.

User Reviews

SkySafari 7 Plus is praised for telescope control, sky navigation, and educational object data, plus a cleaner UI. However, reviewers repeatedly flag pricing/paywall concerns, crashes, telescope connectivity problems, limited access to some content (like comets) without upgrades, and occasionally poor support. Overall, it offers powerful features for observers but reliability and pricing frustration hinder consistent use.

Pros

Telescope control and aiming features (including eyepiece previews).
Robust sky navigation and object finding capabilities.
Educational, object information that aids learning.
Cleaner, more intuitive UI and user experience compared to similar apps (e.g., Stellarium).

Cons

Frequent upgrade prompts and pricing/paywall approach, with major features moved behind paywalls.
Crashes and instability, including Tonight button and occasional startup crashes.
Telescope connectivity and network issues preventing scope control.
Content accessibility limitations, such as comets or certain objects requiring additional payments or being hard to find.
Variable or poor customer support.
