WHAT PEOPLE SAY:
☆☆☆☆☆
This is one of the coolest apps on the iPad. I spend "way" too much time on it. Day or night the stars are always out :)
by Sean Bone

☆☆☆☆☆
Always one of the first apps I show friends who haven't seen an iPad yet. Informative and always elicits a "wow!"
by NYRicky

by Star Walk rocks!

This is the first review I've ever done for iTunes, but this app is so outstanding that I thought it worthy of special recognition. As a graphic designer, I'm very impressed with the overall quality and visual beauty of Star Walk. It is very intuitive, stunning in its renderings of the heavens and a sheer delight to use. This is one app where the size of the screen adds to the user experience. My advice is turn off the music. You do not want to be distracted by everything else, which is as close to perfection as any app can come.
