Scope Nights Astronomy Weather App Reviews

70 add

Stopped working!

I just upgraded to IOS 9.0 and now when I try to use the app the screen goes black for a second then goes back to the regular screen showing my apps.

Went from bad to decent to bad again

It has the potential to be a great app. At first it didnt have my city or anything even close. Then it did and it was right about 70% of the time as far as forecasts the day of. Right about 40% of the time 2 or more days out. Now the settings doesnt work, and there are these neat upgraded features that are pretty expensive add ons. Fairy disappointed. I think Ill just go with a weather app.

Useless

Charges you $3.99 to use the part that shows you the light pollution map. That was the only reason I bought it. If I wanted an app that tells me its going to be cloudy, I could look at the weather app for free.

Bait and switch

Its a paid app that requires paid upgrades to unlock the actual functionality you are looking for. If youre going to provide a basic app that requires paid upgrades, make the basic app free up front so we dont feel like dummies.

Dont buy this app.

This is possibly the worst app that I have ever purchased. The locations listed arent correct for latitude and longitude. They are also place on the map incorrectly. The help is non-existant even though there is a help button. The app is useless in its basic version. Once the in-app upgrades are purchased there is some usefulness, however you need to buy both the U.S. upgrade, the Locations upgrade and the Astronomer Weather Settings Upgrade. The last one is an insult as the app is supposed to be an Astronomy upgrade.Totla cost of the thre upgrades is $9.97 above the basic purchase price of $.99. Again, dont buy this app.

Ugh

Should have read the reviews before purchasing. Every one was right about it being horrible. Just wasted $3! Dont bother buying! Doesnt even work!

Excellent

The weather data and predictions displayed have been about 80% accurate for me, and it seems to be quite current. Ive been using it for over a year and have had no issues (Im not sure what the bad reviews are talking about?) A suggestion would be to add the ability to make notes on each day for planning purposes.

ScopeNightts enhancement

Works well most of the time when it can find my location. However I bought the $2.99 US weather enhancement and although it says "applied" I cant open the enhancement. Dont waist your money on upgrades

Bait and switch!

Agreeing with the other negative reviews. This app not only charges just to download but the functionality requires several additional in app purchases to get whats matched in the description. The developer does a poor job of communicating this in the app description.

Stopped working on iPad 2

Further update - now doesnt seem to be accurate for my region. Plus, once again the developer has increased the costs for upgrades, including the functionality that was present in the original version. Why should I pay again for my original app functionality? Horrible - stay away and save yourself money and frustrations.
