iOS Sky Now

Sky Now displays a continuously updating Chart of the sky using the House System and Location specified in Settings.

• When Location Services are available it uses current location.
• When Location Services are not available or it is locked to a fixed location, it uses the Place specified in Settings.
• iPhemeris is shipped with a default location set to New York City. Change it in Settings.
• The display updates every 5 seconds.

Set Time Step:

• Set the interval used to advance Sky Now back and forward in time.
• Show/Hide the Time Step tool.

Note: Time stepping Sky Now stops real-time updates. To resume them tap the red button on the Time Step toolbar.

Time Step Toolbar:

• Advance Sky Now chart forward or back in time by the step interval.
• Start Real-time  – This button becomes red if real-time updates have been stopped by time stepping the chart. Tap to return to NOW and resume real-time updates.

 

Note: If location is not updating and you think it should, check that you allowed iPhemeris to use your location in iPhone Settings.
