Night Sky is a powerful AI personal planetarium. Quickly identify stars, planets, constellations and satellites above by simply holding your iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch to the Night Sky! This is all done magically. Whether you’re looking for a constellation, or the International Space Station, let Night Sky direct you to it, then explore the object in AR! FEATURE SET: - NIGHT SKY + AURA (Night Sky + Aura Subscription required) - Your Personal AI Super Astronomer! Ask Night Sky Aura virtually anything about Space and it will know the answer. Night Sky Aura fully interfaces with features within Night Sky, to direct you to objects you’re interested in, provide information on anything to do with astronomy, or even show you how the sky looks on the other side of the world! With your own personal AI Super Astronomer right by your side, Night Sky Aura becomes the new natural way to interact with the sky above! - SKY TAGS - Make Night Sky yours, by adding personal Sky Tags to the map! Pin Sky Tags to objects in the sky to save for future reference, and share them via iMessage so others can find them! Sky Tags can be categorized, and are completely personal to you. Maybe you want to tag a star as a memorial to someone, or tag something you’d like to observe later that night. You can even add Astrophotography photos and observation notes to your Sky Tags! - CONNECTED STARGAZING (+ Feature) - Connected Stargazing is a revolutionary new feature that utilizes SharePlay in iOS 15.1, allowing you to stargaze with others when you are apart! Start a FaceTime Audio call with those who you would like to stargaze with, then create a session by adding objects for everyone to find in the sky! - SPATIAL AUDIO OBJECT NAVIGATION - Using AirPods Pro or AirPods Max, search for an object when automatic sky tracking is on, and Night Sky will make the star, planet or constellation ‘chirp’ in the 360° soundscape, assisting you to navigate to the object with sound! - AR SKY WINDOW - Erase the ceiling of your bedroom, lounge or classroom with AR! Night Sky intelligently detects the ceiling or other flat surface in a room, and can make it magically disappear to reveal the sky behind it! - BILLIONS OF STARS!

Fantastic app to track stars and other objects in the heavens. Constellations, comets, satellites, planets all easily identified in the sky just by pointing your device in the direction you prefer.

Begs for subscriptions so often. Hard to use and visuals are distracting. Many "features" or "modes" can only be exited by force quitting the app and restarting. But now it has AI! 🤣Thankfully I had cancelled my subscription quite awhile ago when it was good but money was tight. The bloat, subscription pandering, and AI farce makes deleting the remaining skeleton app an easy decision. So long and thanks for all the fish.

No settings on Apple TV. Cannot turn off the horrible background music. Makes it unusable for me even though it otherwise looks remarkable.

Update:
Developer's response is meaningless. I emailed months ago. If dev does not want to address the feedback, its their prerogative. It is also mine to note the deficiency in the app - one that has persisted for years now.

This was a wonderful app when it was working! However, ever since they updated it for liquid glass / ios26 support, it seems to be no longer working on iOS 18. Whenever I start the app I am greeted only with a black screen and a nonfunctional app.

Not worth using. Generative AI is a plague on humanity and on Planet Earth. No individual nor corporation who claims to care about or promote the natural world should use generative AI at the same time, because they cannot both be true.

I can’t unsubscribe. They make it incredibly hard to unsubscribe. Don’t download and fall for the free offer.

Pretty cool to turn on the phone and check out the amazing constellations
FU2NIOS • Mar 14, 2026 ★ 1
Here we go again something as simple as a GPS identification app on a phone now has a $70 a year subscription are you out of your freaking mind you are the dumbest people I’ve ever met not just the ones that designed this but the idiots that pay for it

When you do AR on the sun it wouldn’t look like that, since the sun is white and doesn’t have those cartoon beams coming out of it. So let’s fix that right there. Good job on Neptune having rings though but they’re a bit too potent. Now for Saturn I highly advice you add the blue hexagon, as that is kinda iconic for Saturn and it is visually accurate. For Venus I guess that is accurate? But I think it should have the thick atmosphere for it, since that is accurate and very good detail of Venus. For Jupiter you need to add at least one or 2 rings since that is also accurate! Also great job on Uranus’s for the rings being sideways caused a possible planet colliding into it millions of years ago! PLEASE REMOVE PAYWALL!!!!
