Report an issueThank you for being a part of my journey with Luminos! As I strive to bring you the best in astronomical software, I want to let you know that, after 12 years of updates, this version of Luminos will be retired in 2023. But there's exciting news: I've developed Luminos Pro, an advanced version that offers even more amazing features and updates. To continue providing support and updates to my existing customers, this version will stay available in the App Store for now. I invite you to explore my latest features and designs in Luminos Pro and join me on this continuing adventure. See you in the stars!
Clear skies, - John

8 of 25Amazing app, Never imagined so much information could be made available to amateur astronomers from beginners to the most advanced, This app is fun especially with a telescope. It is enjoyable and loaded with data to keep you busy for a lifetime.
Easy to learn & use. Worth the cost especially considering the frequent (and unobtrusive) updates. As a photographer, extremely useful to plan sun positions (planning specific shots & positions).
Had this app for as long as I can remember. I use for causal observation, and is one reason I bought a telescope. I was a little disappointed right after I bought the scope as the ecliptic was backward and the tile was off but deleted and reinstalled works great again.
This is one of the most beautiful programs that I have seen. It would be nice to have better instructions. Flying around in space is fun, but better instructions would help me enjoy it more.
Sorry to see it will be discontinued in 2023.
I am always amazed at the information I get from this app. Very well written.
Latest update broke best feature that allowed you to point your device at the sky and see a depiction of the sky and then track changes as you move your device. Now it no longer tracks and is hard to get it to update if at all.
It has been a while since I left a review for Luminos, so I thought I would take a moment to do so now as I sip on my coffee. This is the best astronomy app out there - worth every penny. Other apps will charge the same amount, may go on sale from time to time, but a year or two down the road will put out a new version and will make you pay all over again for any updates. Not the case with Luminos. Pay once, get free updates. It’s that straightforward. The rendering and ease of use are amazing. This app will not disappoint you!
