Stellarium describes itself as a planetarium for your phone. While this may be the case for the novice user, it is certainly not compared to its competition. Compared to other apps in this AppGuide, I found Stellarium to be severely lacking in functionality and therefore should be reserved for the user that wants the absolute bare minimum in a star gazing app.

What is it about?

Stellarium is a planetarium for your iPhone. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
