← User Feedback for SkEye

SkEye aims to be an advanced planetarium for Android.

Ideas and suggestions are welcome here. For submitting bug reports, it is better to raise a ticket.

Please submit each idea separately. Even if two ideas are related, it helps to track them separately.

How can we improve SkEye? Please create separate entries for each idea.

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

  1. Make it work on Kindle Fire.

    Free version works unpredictably and inaccurately on Kindle Fire probably due to Kindle' s lack of necessary sensors. Because at times it does perform close enough to be useful, perhaps it can be tuned to use what sensors are present.

  2. Large Position Coordinate Display Mode

    Now that I am aging it is extremely difficult to see the tiny position coordinates, especially in night mode. It would be nice to have a mode that only displays RA & Dec in large numbers on the screen for use as a pushto on a scope. Skeye is the best astro app out there. Keep up the great work!

  4. full / partly translation

    some people will sure appreciate translation only for stars, constellations, etc. (= "database"), but not for menu / settings, so if u could add option to translation settings (when finished) to choose level of translation between "full" and "object names only", it would be great ;)

  5. Virtual DSC only "Lite" Version

    When I'm observing, I only want the minimum necessary to properly do the job. All else just gets in the way, from unnecessary gubbins on the screen to menu options that are too full and, hence, fiddly. The sort of thing I would find ideal is:

    • Search button with pick-lists (e.g Messier, Caldwell, NGC-400, user-defined, tonight's best, etc) and search-text entry
    • Toggle between AltAz and RA/Dec modes
    • Toggle between Skymap/Circle-pointer and AltAz (or RA/Dec, depending on previous toggle) offset with arrow indicators (a bit like, say, an NGC MicroMax display)
    • Zoomable skymap via pinching or with volume controls (toggle-able on/off)
    • …

  6. Add a voice recorder and observation logger

    With voice recording and observation logging functions SkEye could get closer to being an all-in-one tool for observers. Keep up the good job and thank you!

  7. Implement a night mode keyboard

    There are a couple of Android keyboards with a red theme available on the play store:
    https://play.google.com/store/search?q=red%20keyboard&c=apps

    I don't know if anyone of them are good.

    If not, a simple keyboard with a choice of color themes would be great for Astronomy use.
