PlaceInSky helps you identify stars, planets and constellations using your device's sensors and an interactive sky map. PlaceInSky provides real-time positions, a searchable catalog, and tools for planning and recording observations.

Key features

• Interactive star map with orientation and time controls
• Search for objects by name and filter by type
• Augmented reality overlay to align the map with the sky
• Observation planner and offline data for remote use
• Local observation log with object details

How it works

PlaceInSky uses GPS, time, and device sensors to display accurate sky positions for your location. Use the search and filter options to find targets, switch to AR mode to match the sky view, and save entries to your observation log for later review.

Permissions and privacy

PlaceInSky requires location and sensor access to provide accurate mapping. Data for offline use is optional and stored locally by default. Review the in-app privacy settings for backup and sharing options.
