Description
Sky Live is a great app for planning the star observations and for making gorgeous photos of the starry night sky. Lots of astronomers and night sky photographers worldwide have chosen the app to help them in planning their nights out for watching stars, planets and constellations.
All necessary info is available at once: what planets, bright stars and constellations will be above the horizon at night, what the weather is like, what the visibility score is, and much more. After setting the location you can check the stargazing index for the whole week ahead and learn the best time for the night out.
The unique index for stargazing conditions is calculated hourly and renews each time you start the app. The index depends on the following criteria:
- Weather forecast
- Light Pollution
- Visible objects
- The Moonlight
The Sky Live app works in pair with Star Walk 2 that means you can see the chosen object in the sky and check more info about its’ path through the night sky. Sky Live also has an Apple Watch extension to alert you of upcoming astronomical events and tell you what’s going on in the sky over your location at the moment, e.g. ISS flyby or bright Iridium flare.
"For stargazers, Sky Live is exactly the app we've always needed to find out just how much of the stars we can see at night and when we'll be able to see our favourite constellations and planets." by Nathan Snelgrove, AppStorm.net.
Stunning space photos combined with everything you need to know about stargazing conditions for your location tonight. Stargazer or not - this app will spark your curiosity.
The most accurate hourly conditions for stargazing are estimated on seven criteria and summarized in one Stargazing Index that will give you all the information you need to make your plans. The formula was developed by a mathematician on the Star Walk team and takes into account:
- Is there anything interesting in the sky tonight?
- Can I see Saturn?
- Is it going to be cloudy?
- Is it going to rain?
- Too much light?
- Is the Moon too bright for stargazing?
You will also get detailed reports on position and trajectory of the International Space Station, the Sun, the Moon, Jupiter and other planets. The forecast is available for seven days ahead.

Love this app - as important to me as the weather app
Hands down the first thing I check before I head out for the evening.
If it looks like a good night for viewing I'll generally bring along my camera just in case I find a decent shot.
At the very least it's a great way to introduce friends and family to the night sky. The app provides a way to show them a thing or two about the sky above while giving them a resource to help them gauge wether or not stargazing is possible on any given evening. This app and others like it are a powerful educational and inspirational tool that can really open up a whole new world for most people. It certainly did for me.

night sky shooter,
Do Not Get! LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
This app seems to be a nice looking, peek into the current conditions at your location, I’ll give it that. The BIGGEST HINDERANCE is that there is such limited searchable locations, it basically cripples the app. If you need to travel to “X” location (possibly hours away), but want to check star gazing, weather, and visibility conditions beforehand? Better make sure you’re only going to a location available on their list. Otherwise, you’ll find you cannot search for common towns, locations, areas, or even GPS coordinates and get their relative info (at least in the US, I have not tried other countries). This has issue has been reported by other users over a year ago and still has not been fixed. This one issue alone makes it NOT WORTH IT to get this app for the .99 cents it costs for the “pro” features, heck it makes it not worth it for the free one either. But I guess, in theory, if you’ve done research on other better apps/services and then, got on-location to view magnificent night skies, this would do a good job to tell you once you got there that you’ve got “great stargazing conditions.”
Dangalangadingdong,
I use it to help students in college
I lead Astronomy and Cosmology study groups as an employee of Oakland Community College and stargaze on my own time as well. I use Sky Live (and Stellarium freeware) in tandem when planning stargazing sessions and when aiding students in learning the night sky. I have used at least 20 different apps over the last 4 years, but Sky Live is the ONLY stargazing app that resides at the ready on my iPhone’s first screen. I recommend buying the full version to know at a glance when the ISS will grace your stargazing sessions with its presence.
G-PA 1,
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!!!!!!!
I like it when I see “Fair” ! I love it when I see “Good” ....I’m ecstatic when I see “Great” !
The downside is I hate it when I see “Poor” especially a string of them, as if the app was somehow responsible....lol
But seriously, it provides everything I need to plan my week, before the telescopes come out and does not disappoint! It’s simple and accurate and does not overwhelm the user with information overload! That said , I do use other more technical apps, but this is always the one I check 1st , so It’s a perfect on the go app !
The only thing I would like to see is a few more days tacked on, but I get why you don’t! The Hubble photos each day are also a nice touch !
Highly recommend it!

TheMormonKiwi,
Needs the ability to choose location
Realized after I paid the $1 for pro that location couldn’t be chosen manually. Have to either be at the location or choose from one of the available locations which is extremely limited. The whole point of the app for me was to see what stargazing conditions are like so I know if I should bother traveling out to darker skies. Seems like such an easy feature to fix that the lack of communication on why this “feature” isn’t available or the plans for the update warrant a 1 star review.
Animegirrl,
Could be great
I love this app. I’ve been using it off and on for years. It’s a great way to just learn interesting space events, and to tell what’s going to be visible in your area. Sadly this app hasn’t been updated in a few years, which while understandable (the stars don’t change much after all) it would be neat to see this app with IOS 14 functionality. It would make great widgets.
AstroZamboni,
Extremely limited
No indication of what the notifications DO, Just asks you if you want them. Does not display any specifics for seeing and transparency, just a one-word judgement of whether the conditions are good, fair or poor. Confusing interface, no clear way to bookmark multiple locations and no apparent way to choose a location from a map if you need to travel to observe. Just a terrible, mediocre app that hides features behind a paywall that aren't even remotely worth paying for. Download a free clear sky chart app and learn how to read it. It'll be infinitely more useful than this piece of garbage.
ddalix,
Awesome, but Multiple Locations Would Be Great
Great app. Very simple, very accurate. Exactly what I needed. The $.99 upgrade is worth it. However, my only request would be that you could put multiple locations in. Like any weather app has. I’d like to switch back-and-forth from my home in Salt Lake City to my cabin up in the mountains, regardless of where I am standing at the moment.
Lulu's Mom & Dad,
Great One Stop Tool
I have several tools in my arsenal for projecting sky conditions and other related observing information. But, this is the first one I hit, often several times a day. It's got a simple user interface, is accurate and updated frequently and has no quirks. A pleasure to use in all respects.
Orlockorlok,
Great app but was let down from purchase
The is a great app. It is excellent on letting you know stargazing conditions as well as timing for certain sky objects. The issue with this app is if you try the ad supported versions of other Vito tech apps and then upgrade the to full via in app purchase the apps don’t recognize each other as full versions. I contacted support and was told they were aware of the issue and it will be fixed in the next update, it now has been over a month since and no update to resolve the issue
