iPhone iOS: 15.0.2 ... iPhone 12 pro Max
If you are in SkySafari 7 Pro Help section and choose "Local Astronomy Events" you get following message:
Night Sky Network
Unable to retrieve
Please check your internet access or try again later.
On SkySafari 6 Pro, this all works.

And by the way ... great update to the software! Looking good.
Steve,
Thanks!
Here they are ... first image is Sky Safari 6 Pro version on my phone. 2nd version is Sky Safari 7 Pro on same phone. Sky Safari 7 Pro Events do not work. I would add, that I am beta tester for SkySafari 7 Plus and I am getting the same event problem. I am not sure if you have moved SF 7 Plus to the app store yet.
Thank you, Steve, but I am still lost...
How are you getting to that 'Local Astronomy Events" page?
Oh, yes, sorry.
First is after you touch menu at bottom
2nd is after you touch help.
Funny that, I do not find it in either SS6 Pro or SS7 Pro for iPad.
That’s very strange… on my iPad 6th gen I am seeing the local astronomy events running iOS 14.6 … I will upgrade iOS and see if it goes away.
I just upgraded iPad 6th gen to iOS 15.1 and I see the Local Astronomy Events. You should check it out on another device.
Thanks, Steve! Developers will figure it out.
I have been having the same problem with “Local Astronomy Events” in SS7P, both on my iPhone 13 Pro Max and my old iPad Pro (Gen 1). On the iPhone, the link to Local Astronomy Events (in the Help menu between Basic Concepts and Links) goes to an error message that says “Night Sky Network: Unable to retrieve events. Please check your network and try again.” On the iPad, Local Astronomy Events is totally missing from the Help menu. Both devices are running version 7.0.2 (1031) on iOS 15.2.1. Also of note: Local Astronomy Events works properly on Sky Safari 6 and 6Pro on both devices.
I use and recommend this feature a lot during outreach and am eager to see it functional again.
Thanks.
