Pocket Stars Updated to Version 5.5


Nomad Electronics recently updated its popular Pocket Stars for PDA and PCs to version 5.5 (no update was released for Smartphones).  We have given away numerous copies of this amazing stargazing program here at JAMM, so I am sure you will all be happy to hear that this update is free fro all registered users of version 5.1. 

New features in version 5.5 include: 

  • “Tap-n-hold Rotate while scrolling”.  The new default method of roaming through the sky automatically rotates the star chart as you scroll.
  • Added “Help.Star News” RSS feed for Nomad Electronics.
  • Zenith grid adapts to zoom setting.
  • Animate scrolling and rotation when double tap to center the selected object.
  • Added rotation angle readout at bottom of screen.

Check out the latest version at the JAMM store.
