Feedback and Usability Issues

Dear Application Support Team,

I've obtained "Starry Night 8 Celestron Edition" version. While I appreciate the effort that has gone into its development, there are several areas that could use some refinement.

The app's usability issues are quite extensive, and the lag and slow performance are particularly noteworthy. It's almost as if the app is trying to teach us patience.

The animations, while visually engaging at first, quickly become tiresome. It would be wonderful if users could opt out of them for a more streamlined experience.

The time switcher feature is an interesting concept, but it feels more like a placeholder than a fully realized tool. Perhaps it's still in the experimental phase? Also it keeps resetting my time step to "1x" (what the hell it is?) while I prefer to be "1 hour".

See your control:

Not sure who decided to crop images in "Show Info" popups, but this looks like a joke:

 

The tutorials section is also not serious:

 

Search could be better in looking for Messier objects:

 

Lastly, I've noticed that my home location keeps defaulting to New York, despite my actual location being saved to Warsaw. I'm starting to think the app has a fascination with the Big Apple. For example it happens when I do click something like "What's New?" popup:

I look forward to seeing improvements in these areas in future updates. Hope all the 10 people who bought the paid version would be happy.

Thank you for your attention to these matters.
