Mirino: Star Finder

Mirino turns your iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch into a simple, intuitive star finder. Choose a planet or constellation and follow the compass to easily find it in the sky above you. Or just point your device up to see what's there. For every object you discover you'll see a beautiful picture and a full description. FIND Choose the Moon, a planet, a star or constellation, a galaxy or a space station from the catalog. Guide dots on the compass lead you straight to it. DISCOVER Switch to Discover mode and sweep your device across the sky. Mirino shows you what you're pointing at, updating as you move. SEE THE SKY BEHIND THE COMPASS Select a camera view to see the real sky behind the compass. After dark, Night Boost brightens your view. Constellation pictures turn to match the sky, with accurate colors and names for every one of their stars. LIVE SKY Turn the compass ring, or touch and hold the screen, and your target flies onto its place in the live sky. A constellation's stars and lines are drawn in AR, and other objects are enlarged and pinned to their live location. Discover mode follows your aim, showing and naming planets, constellations, stars and deep-sky objects as you sweep. ON YOUR WRIST Mirino on Apple Watch works without your iPhone. Raise your wrist and follow the compass on the watch to find your target. Or point it at the sky to see what's there. Add Mirino to a watch face to open Find, Discover or a favorite object. GO DEEPER Tap any object's picture for its description and more, including every planet's moons, the comets behind meteor showers, and deep-sky features like the Pillars of Creation and the Horsehead Nebula. PATH IN THE SKY Tap the center of the compass, or the live sky crosshair, to draw your target's path across the sky: from rise to set, hour by hour. TONIGHT One tap lists tonight's best sights from wherever you are: the Moon, bright planets, space station passes, meteor showers, and well-placed stars and deep-sky objects. Tap one and Mirino guides you to it, or tap its bell for a reminder. Alerts flag eclipses, supermoons and meteor showers, and you can star favorites to be notified when they're at their peak. A weather forecast shows cloud cover, wind and rain.
