Solar Walk - Planets Explorer App Reviews

It is the best educational app ever

What happened to the movies that I already had in the previous version? I now have to buy them? Whenever I click to unlock any movie Im asked for my iTunes log in every time but nothing unlocks. I was able to download one but playing it resulting in an immediate crash of the app. Went from stellar to stupid.

This is an amazing app! Keep it up!

Its realy fantastic, realy.

I just downloaded Solar Walk onto my iPhone 4s. When I open it, its a black screen with Solar Walk in orange and music plays. But thats it. Have left it for several minutes and it does nothing but play the ominous music. Hmmm

I sat for 45 minuets straight, staring at the loading screen that says Solar Walk. This is my first time playing, and it wont even load! If this doesnt get fixed, then I will just have to delete Solar Walk.

Couldnt get it to open... not difficult to write a review about an app that wont open. Its at times like this that I believe there should be an option for negative numbers. Unprofessional, unacceptable and disrespectful to the customer!!!

A great app, works very well, no problem with in-app purchases, I found many interesting information which I showed to my friends!

I have never given a bad review before....but to have a paid app that doesnt work properly for this long is embarrassing and silly, keep up the crappy work!

This used to be one of my fav apps for sure. Since the latest update, most of the content is only accessible with in app purchases (whereas it was free before). I understand that they would like to generate income, but at $1 per feature - that would be quite expensive to appreciate the entire app. I have since deleted it. Thank you to the developers for creating such a cool app, and keeping it free for several years.

One of the first apps I purchased after buying an iPad, along with the equally-spectacular StarWalk app by the same folks. Id read a complementary review, and was not disappointed in the slightest when I purchased this. Recently realized how often I return to this app despite having downloaded many other entertainment and educational apps - it never loses its wonder for me, and let me tell you, watching the eyes of a child as you show this to them for the first time is worth ten times the price. Ive recently purchased the detailed planet surfaces, and while I find myself wishing that a product like Goggle Moon or Google Mars were available as add-ins :) the addition of the detail for some planetary surfaces is well worth the low cost in my opinion - Earth in particular is nice, especially the night-side view. Very highly recommended. Enough said.

The app itself is good. Great content and information. And visually it is stunning. However... The navigation is frustrating. I would like to be able to freely roam and zoom around the solar system freely, but it becomes difficult because it always centers your last selected object. The ability to freely pan and zoom from a "birds eye" perspective of the solar system would be most welcome. Also, I love the date feature to zone forward or go back in time, by as long as you want, but having to scroll through the years and wait until it gets where you want gets annoying. Id like to see a visual of the solar system in the year 10,000... But it takes hours of fast forward to get there. How about the ability to manually enter a year, Monday, date, and time? Cheers

Used to be able to navigate smoothly within the solar system, i have an old version of the app in my 3rd generation ipad, runs more organicly than this latest on my ipad air. when will developpers learn to stop messing up their own creations

I just love this app its sooooo helpful I even bought all the in app purchases and this is great for education I just love it!

Solar walk -3D Solar System Model is an amazing app! This app is extremely informative. With just the tap of a finger, you have the whole knowledge of the Milky Way galaxy in your hands. It is not hard to become memorized by the beauty this app holds. ~S

This is very irritating, please fix this as soon as possible.

I Have This App! For 4 years and it is an Amazing App and my kids love it too! Thank You Solar App!

I love this app! Are you going to add the new pictures of pluto in the photo gallery?

This is a fabulous App. Im an amateur astronomer and this App really does the job great. Thanks.

Amazing app and a must-have for any lover of science. Great for my kids, who I periodically catch exploring on the app.
