If you point the phone in another direction, the stars will shift to reflect your new position. Thanks to GPS and your iPhone's internal compass, the app should reveal the stars in the direction you're holding the phone on your screen. Like other iPhone planetarium apps, StarMap shows you a view of the starry sky, even in the daytime, when the Sun is also shown in its proper position in relation to the constellations. It lacks some features of the Editors' Choice app SkySafari 3 (for iPhone), including detailed descriptions of objects and the ability to locate comets and artificial satellites, but it shows fainter stars and brings a lot to the table for its price. It shows relatively faint stars, and reveals images of, and basic data about, deep-sky objects when you tap on them. Starmap (for iPhone) offers a visually appealing and detailed view of the night sky.
