[2012-09-08] Kimberly: Turn up the ambiance! What if this reference considered amateur stargazers by posing a riddle or hint for which the answer reveals the constellations in which each shower can be found? That would b hip. |

|
[2012-08-10] Jeffrey: Meteor shower The update has caused the app to stop working |
|
[2012-08-10] Nene: Very useful A must have app. It's saved me a lot in terms of carrier charges! |
|
[2012-08-10] Rich: Reinstall instead of Update Thanks Ian. App works as it should after a full reinstallation. add calendar support. |
|

|
[2012-08-10] beastobadness: Need to uninstall and reinstall the app! To get the app to work it needs uninstalling and reinstalling, then it works fully! |
|
[2012-08-09] Tanya: Glitch? App used to work fine but today it only shows an ad bar at the top. (Samsung Galaxy S) The ads rotate FINE but nothing else changes. There is "next sunrise" time below the ad, but no amount of swiping the empty space, trying search, closing app, or restarting phone will bring up the list/calendar of showers. |
|
[2012-08-09] Amber: Outstanding app!!! Outstanding app!!! |
|
[2012-08-09] chris: Not showing any showers, only ad bar. Fine before last update. Pls fix. |
|
[2012-08-09] sarah: Fab App Love it! |
|
[2012-08-09] Jane: Was great, but... I agree with Chris. This was a fantastic app, but is basically useless since the last update. |
|
[2012-08-09] eppo: Last update pain App was great, but last update ruined it. Doesnt show any showers, just an ad. Pleaae fix. Samsung galaxy 2. |
|
[2012-08-09] Ian: Reinstall the app I had to uninstall and reinstall the app and seems to work fine!! Phew!! Great app love it. |
|
[2012-08-08] MARLA: I like it |
|
[2012-08-08] Sean: Nice upgrade... Great app... Would be nice to have support to share individual meteor showers... :-) |
|
[2012-08-08] Joshua: Pretty good app. It could be better, in a few ways. But, for free you can't demand too much. Overall, this app is useful. One of the best features is its ability to work with other apps. In particular, Skeye, Meteor Shower Calender will open Skeye and direct you to the source of the meteor shower. |
|
[2012-08-08] Hunter: HGH Excellent |
|
[2012-08-05] Neil: A great app A nice simple yet powerful app that gives me all the info quickly and without fuss |
|
[2012-08-03] Anonymous: UNINSTALLED has NO exit tab, RUNS 24/7, EATS RAM & BATTERY. . PLEASE ADD EXIT TAB. sadly UNINSTALLED. . |
|
[2012-08-01] Denise: Meteor Shower Calendar I love it. Everything a touch away. Thanks to all who worked hard to make astronomy easy for me. |
|
[2012-07-31] Don: Solid and stable Great little app with features i would not have expected but that are relevant. Nice job guys. Only thing i see as an issue is there is no notification setting for blocking meteor showers that are not visible from your location. Also the color of the txt could be different if it is not able to be seen from tour location |
|
[2012-07-29] Jeri: One page only???? Only shows one page!!! Doesn't say where to look in sky. |
|
[2012-07-26] Chuck: Strange magnetic field Always detects strange magnetic field and sky map drifts even after calibrating compass |
|
[2012-07-24] Anonymous: Fantastic webpage Wouldnt be without it |
|
[2012-07-22] Daniel: This is a great way to find when and where showers will be. |
|
[2012-07-22] TierraWorld: mobile observ is better.. The app works fine. But I still find myself using Mobile Observatory far more, even for meteor showers. I give the app a 3 because it does what it says. I would had been a 4 if they had added ability to export shower peak time to my calendar. |
|
[2012-07-17] Dave: Confusing If you just want to know when there will be a meteor shower in your area this app wont help. |
|
[2012-07-07] Penny: Show er You can see all expected -great! |
|
[2012-07-07] DarkStream: Friggin' AWESOME!!! One of the best apps I've seen when it comes to the night sky. This app is just the reminder you need for the best firework show the universe has to offer (which is relatively safe :p) A true must have for the curious mind... |
|
[2012-06-30] jax80860: Meteor shower calendar Just what I wanted... Brilliant....Thanks |
|
[2012-06-30] Marc: A list of showers with links to Wikipedia. I was not able to adjust list to my location - uninstall |
|
[2012-06-21] Jason: Love this app!! Easy to use, very informative, easy to understand, and i love how it gives me notifications of either all the showers or just the good ones. With the add on app, it even tells me where to look in the sky!! Five stars!!! |
|
[2012-06-20] LORD OF ALL HUMANS: Why not a Google Calendar? I mean, that's all this is. That and a big ad. Why not make it a shared calendar? This didn't even cross out or otherwise omit past dates! |
|
[2012-06-07] Vincent: Chenso103 HTC Rezound!! Sweet app! |
|
[2012-06-02] Mobius: Great App Fantastic! - Great Job... |
|
[2012-06-01] Marion: Excellent |
|
[2012-05-31] KC: Love this App!!!! Working nights,I use this app alot, and I have been able to observe many meteors. Thanks.. |
|
[2012-05-29] copasetic: PLEASE release ad-free version for purchase. I looked all over and can't find it and would gladly pay if needed. This app is simple and effective. Paid version or let us donate to remove ads please :) |
|
[2012-05-23] Primrose Mary Ann: Meteor shower calendar Excellent |
|
[2012-05-20] Nix: May not be pretty but it is informative, easy to use, and handy. Hope dev will give it a new look! |
|
[2012-05-15] Tetenterre: Very Useful The information is good and sufficiently comprehensive to be very useful. However, the colour themes will not change on this phone : no matter what I choose, it is stuck on blue. Needs to be able export selected showers to calendar. Noten It *is* installed on the SD card. |
|
[2012-05-09] Alina: HTC EVO Great app, easy to use. 5 stars if it can be installed on SD |
|
[2012-05-04] Anonymous: Great for star gazers. Just the thing to remind me of upcoming annual meteor showers. Love it. |
|
[2012-05-03] Sam: One word.........AWESOME! Great app. love to use while hiking or camping. Very interesting! |
|
[2012-04-25] Patrick: Excellent Combined with the sky map awesome |
|
[2012-04-25] Antje: Needs a few tweaks It would be better if you could pick a hemisphere - select to have only those showers listed that will be visible where you live. I really don't want a listing of those meteor showers I won't be able to see - I get to miss enough showers due to bad weather. |
|
[2012-04-24] Becky: Bec_b Thanks for this wonderful app I had to wait for the weather person to mention about a meteor shower. Always it would be that night. I was never prepared toget everyone together, WHICH IS A BLAST WITH OTHERS AROUND Plus you wouldn't fall asleep! Thanks to this app I can call & let others know & wahlah meteor shower party! |
|
[2012-04-21] Willow: Love it It lets me know about all the upcoming astrological events. Good job! |
|
[2012-04-21] melissa: Dev, I Love You! I have been fascinated with Astronomy since childhood, but with the melee of life (work, parenting, etc.), I struggle to remember shower dates; lack of time prevents reading up online. So, for me, this app ensures I am promptly aware of when & where to look up! Aces! |
|
[2012-04-21] Wendy: Love it .... |
|
[2012-04-17] Melonie: Love this app! More detailed information that the web site I used to use plus has more annual showers listed. Used it last night to view and learn more about the Lyrids. This is a new bonding experience for my 14 y o son and I. HTC Sensation |
|
[2012-04-08] Matt: Dumb Dumb |
|
[2012-03-29] Dito: No Meteor App Fantastic and really professional |
|
[2012-03-25] Stephen: Stephen What the hell the app will not tell you when a metor shower. The app is called.meteor shower clandar.app needs to be fixed |
|
[2012-03-24] dshiznit00: Easy to use..not pretty This is very functional app to find the best dates and times to look for shooting stars. It's easy to use and understand. I downloaded the companion app that even tells you where to look in the sky. That being said, it's not the best looking app in the world. It's function, useful, and free. Five stars! |
|
[2012-03-23] Anonymous: Unique & reliable, lightwieght to boot Not a iIdiot app, but not hard to use either. Blasted through too many other services on my SGS to keep me in the loop. Perfect. Links and API implementation are ingenious! |
|
[2012-03-17] Sarah: Kind of confusing. |
|
[2012-03-16] Luke: Very good Information is very cool. Interface is a bit cluttered and text is small. Could use improvement. Droid Incredible. |
|
[2012-03-16] Misty Dawn: Great app Awesome |
|
[2012-03-14] Andy: Location? Brilliant app - simple, effective and with useful notifications. Ties in well with Skymap and SkEye. Real shame that you can't tell it your hemisphere - so you don't get notifications of showers you can't see! |
|
[2012-03-12] cathie: Very cool Miss meteor showers & now won't! Thanx for this awesome tool! |
|
[2012-03-12] Dina: Skygazer LOVE it!" |
|
[2012-03-09] Terri: Great app! Very informative. Wish it would show ones specifically by viewing location ie UK, USA etc. |
|
[2012-03-07] Carlos: Great Great |
|
[2012-02-26] Stacy: S Cool |
|
[2012-01-26] Daniel: Great app...love that it works with Google Sky Maps! I really wish it had the option to as showers to you're calendar. 5+ if that happens. |
|
[2012-01-09] Marc Cohen NY: M For now I'm giving 5* just on the character of this developer. I hope more developers follow this example of respect for the community and the intelligence demonstrated by EXPLAINING why certain permissions are needed and why certain limitations exist. |
|
[2012-01-05] Anonymous: Love it. Great Provides great information to anyone who enjoys watching for "shooting stars" if u install the skeye app it will pin point where in the sky to look |
|
[2012-01-05] Silvestre: Great This is a great app |
