Star Stacker App Reviews

The Idea of the app is good but For it to be worth the money and not have things that meet the astrophotographers needs? The app needs manual stacking and editing software for it to be suitable to be used for astrophotography. For both planetary and deep sky objects. If you have read this thank you for listening to my thoughts and comments! I would appreciate it if you could implement this. Thank you!

Good for all ages

Makes stacking of Astrophotography very easy

I’m a astrophotography hobbyist since 2009 with my Canon T1i, 2014 Canon 70D, and since 2023 with my Canon R5. Widefield astrophotography allows creativity, capturing foreground with sky objects. Stat Stacker is a great tool for the any astrophotographer. Mike Rosinski, located SE Michigan, USA

I teach Milky Way and Landscape photography on my western workshops, and find this to be the best app for producing star trails images. It’s all the most versatile app! Hoping it remains available to my students!

This app is fantastic, and produced great results. Biggest quality of life request would allowing imports from the Files app! Because stacking sometimes uses hundreds of photos, importing these to the camera roll gets very messy & tedious. Otherwise, great work!

Super easy to use, very fast processing. Retained great resolution and quality. Very pleased especially with my first time shooting and editing startrails timelapse!! 🙌🏽👏🏽

I just downloaded app and was able to stack over 200 files. This is pretty groundbreaking for an Ipad app. I am impressed that it can handle raw files. It would be nice to have a ‘select all’ option if the files are in one folder. Also, I did not see a ‘clear all’ option. Thank you for this app. I will be using it often for star trails photos and timelapse.

So I’ve been using StarStax most of my star trail taking years. I happen to be in Ireland, next door to the most amazing ruins of a Franciscan Friary. The clouds actually went away, rare for Ireland, so I grabbed my camera and set it up for a couple hours to shoot star trails, thinking I’d have to wait to get home to stack them all together. Then I saw this app, and it’s AWESOME! Love the JPEG and MOV options and I’ve been playing around with different sets of images for the past few days. Way t

I have been collecting Star-stacking apps for years. They are often complex, quirky and give mixed results. (They might give great results but I've never been able to figure out how to use them) Some have been around for years but don't run on Apple Silicon. Here's an app that's reasonably priced, gives great results and is easy to use. The bonus is that is runs on Apple Silicon Macs, iPads and iPhones. Great combination. I am very happy with this app. Well done.

I don’t like paying for apps. I rarely do. Tonight I got this one, and I don’t regret it. Easily stacked 130 images, and result makes me want to get out there and take more pictures. To the creators of this app, thank you!

I got this app yesterday when I figured out how to do a star trail. I am so happy I got this! I used Night Lapse Photo from my GoPro and it was the easiest thing to do on my iPad. Really enjoyed the photos being stacked and seeing the progression. I am so happy with this app I highly recommend!!

Super easy to use and love the trail options and the option to create a short star trail video. Overall really happy that I got this app. I am using the GoPro 10 to take the night photos.

The app is ok but it needs manual stacking and a automatic alignment function for it to be good for a astrophotographers stacking needs. Also a way to set the picture format and edit it would make this app much better. Thank you for reading this developers and please make these changes I would appreciate it.

The app instantly crashes instantly when I try to render video using the 'individual' mode, which is the mode I was interested in. I'm using 75 high resolution .tiff files. I tried changing all the other settings. I tried only selecting a few images.. it still crashes the app immediately. Be happy to change my review if we can figure it out! Cheers

Follow directions very carefully. I didn't see this: "For best results, allow access to all photos. If you allow access to specific photos, you must only select these same photos from the photo picker." I selected "specific photos" bu I can't actually select ANY photos now and there appears to be no way to go back and select "all photos". And "contact me" doesn't work to ask for help. The only way I can see around this is to delete the app and pay for it again. Why even have the "specific phot
