    Comprehensive app for astronomy, but with several bug that detract from the experience. First of all, I could not find a way of unselecting the current target in the sky map section, which leads to the bottom left corner of the screen to be blocked by the target details text box. Also on the solar ephemeris screen, to scroll the screen left you have to swipe right. Last, inputing a coordinate location manually work in a weird way, with the coordinates being input in an inverted way. It's just weird.
