Simple to use and input data

By Mdsailor55 (Pcmac user)

I am teaching myself celestial navigation. The books I am using have problems and answers, but if I get the wrong answer I have no idea where I might have gone wrong. This app is very helpful in that it shows me all the calculated values I need to check my work along the way and with a simple tap on the screen it shows me where in the Nautical Almanac and H.O.229 volumes the data came from (with pages exactly as they look like in the books). Having all the Nautical Almanac data from 1961 to 2060 means I won't have to buy another one (the older NA data is also very helpful in verifying my answers to problems in old celestial navigation how-to books). Same with H.O 229, all 6 volumes are in there. The LOP plots are very helpful and easy to access. I just used the "Shoot" function to help me preset my sextant for this evening's practice shots and it worked like a charm. Overall, as someone new to celestial navigation, this program is very, very helpful. Once I am comfortable understanding how to do my sights and reductions (from the books) and making plots by hand, I can see how this app will make taking sights and getting a position much easier, without the risk of errors during sight reduction. My only quibbles so far are that I can't figure out how to make it work in landscape mode on my iPad and it would be nice to be able to enter watch time and watch error.
Fabulous

Terrific app. Very easy to use for taking a large number of sights in a short time. It's also a great teaching tool. All the normal books are there (nautical almanac, HO249, etc). The app will also show you, via highlights, how it computed the results (Ho, Hc, and intercept).
Nice app!

By jaufdenb (Pcmac user)

This is a great way to learn how to reduce sextant observations using the Almanac tables. Tapping on a correction value sends you to the Almanac page with relevant column and row highlighted. One confusing correction is for the upper limb of the Moon. An additional 30' are subtracted, but it is not clear why from the tables alone. The official Almanac (2015 edition at least) has a paragraph on the moon altitude correction page explaining this correction. I really like plotting the Lines of Position and seeing on the map. Would be nice if the map had a scale. I'm new to sextant observations and reduction and I've learned a lot using this app. Recommend.
