Starlight Android

Explore the stars with your smartphone

We all love to look up at the night sky and let ourselves be enchanted by the unfathomable beauty of space. Downloading the APK file of this app helps us to take the magic one step further, as it can identify stars, constellations, planets, and other stars.

A pocket-sized planetarium

Starlight is a star identification tool for smartphones. In this way, we will always carry a small planetarium with a digital celestial planisphere in our pocket.

Point your smartphone or tablet like a magic lens at the night sky and see in real-time what stars and constellations are above.

Although there are several apps of this kind, this one stands out for its simplicity. It avoids complements and information to focus on its main function: the identification of celestial bodies.

To use this application, the first thing to do is to grant location permissions. Then, all that remains is to point the device at the sky. The system will show us in real-time the stars, planets, and constellations that we scan while we move the mobile from one side to the other.

See planets, stars, and constellations coming to life against a vibrant backdrop of stars.

Another highlight of this app is its magnificent interface, as it has exquisite hand-painted designs. These beautiful drawings represent more than 100,000 stars and 88 western constellations extracted from the Hipparcos database. In short, it is a marvel for astronomy enthusiasts.
