A True Contender
Update 01/11/2022: So after about a year of the subscription fee I'm disappointed to say there's been nothing added since my original review. It makes me wonder what exactly I'm paying for. It seems like they just want to resell me the app over and over again without giving me anything in return. I understand that apps require upkeep and without it they quickly become abandoned, which in turn means they inevitable quit working as they fall further and further behind. On the other hand I want more than just maintenance updates if I'm gonna be paying a hefty annual subscription fee. I guess time will tell but I doubt I'll be subscribed for much longer if no further content is ever offered. It's a shame too because I really want to support science apps but I also want to feel I'm getting my money's worth. This is a great app but there's always room to grow. Do the devs agree? When the devs first released this new version of their astronomy software, Redshift, I was excited. I've spent countless hours with their old version exploring and reading everything it had to offer. I quickly preordered the new version and waited for it to be released while wondering what new treasures were in store. Then after it was finally released came the disappointment. While the new Redshift looked more polished there seemed to be very little in terms of new content and what seemed even worse to me at the time was that now it came with a subscription fee. I was tempted to rush to the app store to write a scathing review but I decided to wait to see if anything new might still be coming. Ultimately, it was the right move. Adding the ability to explore different galaxies like you would for objects inside the Milky Way is a fantastic new addition that really expands the feeling of depth to this model universe. I do wish you had more range to view the universe on the grandest scale but you are only able to zoom out 100kpc away from any galaxy. I would like to be able to rotate the universe from a greater distance and then zoom down into a random galaxy. While I don't expect to be able to see objects in the far away galaxies it would be cool if eventually they added certain objects that we can observe in the nearby galaxies such as the LMC, SMC and Andromeda. Hopefully, that's why they have subscription fee now, to have ability to keep adding content. I can't wait to see what develops but for now it's a solid 4 stars with potential to be a perfect 5. Thanks to the devs on their awesome astronomy app!
Its as a telescopic build into your Device!
Im impressed so many features im still learning how to find features
move the rocket button
it is in the same space as apple's stupid three dots at the top center of the screen. apple will never move its three dots multiscreen buttons, so sky needs to move its button. the rocket mode can not be access now.

The Good & Bad
This is my favorite astronomy app, I’v been using it for years now and I just love how in depth you can go when you travel to near by stars and galaxy it’s incredible to me that they have mapped this much space and actually have been able to calculate every star and galaxy to real live time, you can even travel in the future like I think 100 years ? Maybe more then that, I’v used this app many times to check out a reported close encounters with certain meteorites that were reported by nasa or main stream media outlets and it’s fun to see how they project it’s trajectory. I’m not even an astronomer I just love to learn about space. I don’t like though that you guys keep upgrading all the versions cause I’v purchased the $50 one and the older $20 app and to be honest im not too excited if you guys are switching to subscription instead that would bum me out and lose me as a customer maybe if it’s a $1.99 a month idk. Still, Love this product love the app definitely 5 Star rating and incredible work mapping and documenting everything you have been able to discover or help discover 👍🏼!
Thank you for using Redshift Sky! This release contains bug fixes and new features that make our product even better. In this update, we have expanded the information on celestial objects, and with the Ultimate subscription you can now watch space missions as they travel through space.
