First Time User Experience
I have been using this app for about a week now (approximately 1-1.5 hours a day) to see what features it came with and only one word comes to mind: YES! Because, I have finally found the ultimate amateur astronomers app. Theres not a single negative thing about this app, Im using an iPad 2, so its a little laggy (as expected) but no where near as laggy as some other huge apps I have used.
Theres an endless stream of objects to explore and find information about. (All offline!) I personally found the list of asteroids and comets unlike anything I have seen. The lists of objects are limitless. Really! It would take you thousands of nights just to see through a fraction of whats listed.
One experience you get while using the zoom feature while "star gazing" is you find yourself finding more and more stars and deep sky objects the further you zoom in, its awesome!
Plus I found myself searching objects I was most interested in, other than being limited with just a hand full of galaxies like other apps.
Thumbs up to the developers for an exceptional visual & virtual astronomy experience! Its endless fun!
