umadog Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I've been using the the Dark Sky Finder app for iPhone/iPod recently. It's rather nice but only covered the US. The new version (which appeared today) covers the whole world. Check it out: http://www.finddarkskies.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the rev Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Does it point to clear skies as well as dark ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m12_shakes Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Does it point to clear skies as well as dark ones?There is another app called Scope Nights, that shows when there is good viewing conditions, this based upon the weather conditions (clouds, humidity etc) at your location.Hopefully that helps...
