GoSkyWatch Planetarium allows you to identify and locate stars, planets, constellations, and more by touching the screen or by pointing it to the sky. It displays the sky view at the correct orientation when held at any angle, not just in landscape or portrait. The app has a built-in compass so that you can tell which direction you are pointing and, because of the core location services, you can quickly set up your observing position.
This app provides you with an interactive way to explore the sky. You can just point to the sky to start exploring. There are various features in the app that allow you to explore the sky, including a built-in database of all stars visible to the naked eye; 200+ images of planets and deep sky objects; planet, star, and constellation data; full-sky, 180-degree display, etc.
This app is free of charge, so in order to use it, all you have to do is go to the App store and download the free version. To orient the app, you can click on the tools option to set your location, if you don’t already have that set up on your tablet. You also can choose various ways to display the information on the screen, from seeing the Milky Way displayed to viewing the lines for the constellations.
