Now you can have a virtual star chart in your pocket! Look through the eyes of your iPhone* to see a virtual window into the whole visible universe.
All you have to do is point your iPhone* at the sky and Star Chart will tell you exactly what you are looking at.
Using state of the art GPS technology, an accurate 3D universe, and all of the iPhone’s high tech functionality, Star Chart calculates – in real time – the current location of every star and planet visible from Earth and shows you precisely where they are; even in broad daylight!
And thanks for all your feedback so far!
*Augmented Reality mode available on iPhone 3Gs / 4 & iPad, as this feature requires a built-in compass. Manual scrolling is supported on all other devices.
