← 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.

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

  1. The ability to create observing plans.

    Great and useful app for our astronomers!.. If i may come with a feature request:
    If one could create a observing list beforehand, and then later select these objects.
    for example before your viewing session you search a object you want to observe and when you have found it you get the option to "add to observing list"
    When your list is ready, skeye saves these objects and then, during your observing session, the user can select these objects one by one and skeye will point to that object.
    I hope you understand what i mean.

  2. Align to the zenith (or any other fixed point)

    Keep the telescope in perfect vertical (using bubble level) and align using the zenith coordinates.

    Reopening, because I think there is potential here for creative uses that I hadn’t thought of before.

    Such as aligning a radio antenna to East (as suggested by Adrian on email).

  3. Create Reminders from Time Machine

    (Edited to remove idea of year selection)

    Am fascinated with your Time Machine feature.

    I want to be able to make reservations with whatever I see in the telrad with corresponding time and have it notified to me just right before the reservation time .. For example,, I may see Uranus and Neptune so close together on a future date and I can really screenshot it and save it ,but I would rather reserve the time and have it notified to me within a week notice , for example.. So I can forget about it until the time has come

    The ability to jump to a year was added in a recent SkEye release.

    The ability to mark an event in the calendar is a nice idea. SkEye could just add an event in the user’s calendar. It wouldn’t have to keep track of the event itself!
