Stellarium Mobile is one of the most popular skywatching apps on Android. With it, you see a complete map of the stars to find out what you are seeing when you look up at the sky. This pocket planetarium allows you to identify elements such as stars, constellations, planets, comets, satellites and other objects in space.
Stellarium Mobile allows you to navigate manually by sliding on the map. If you stop touching the screen for three seconds, the accelerometer mode will be activated. In this mode, you can point the smartphone to the area of the sky you want to learn more about, and it will show you all the stars and other elements that are available there.
In each area of the sky you can also see the different constellations. These constellations change depending on the culture, for which the app has dozens of different cultures to adapt the names and shapes of the constellations. With the time simulations, you can see when is the best time to have the clearest view of the night sky. It also has a night mode that turns the screen red to prevent looking at the phone from constricting your pupils and having to wait a long time to get used to the night sky.
Stellarium Mobile also gives you the option to show what the sky looks like at your location at any date and time of the year. Thanks to this, you can schedule your photographic sessions at night to enjoy the best skies, or simply enjoy getting to know the sky.
So if you're going to look at the sky at night, downloading the Stellarium Mobile APK is a must.
