I had found this app as well, but couldn't get it to point & shoot so to speak. Seems I must manually tap and drag to pan around the map. Am I just doing it wrong?
Yes, that's my understanding. So it's more work to use than point and shoot, which would be a nice feature for someone like me who can recognize major constellations and planets, but not much else.
I can see how the "manual" workflow might be preferable to some, so I'd say this app is a good rec nonetheless, thanks!
One thing, though—I noticed East and West are flipped on the map, and I haven't played with it enough to ascertain why that is. Is this by design?
EDIT: I guess this orientation makes sense if I orient myself facing south and looking up, in which case east would be to my left and everything inside the circle represents what is visible to me from that time and location, right?
