How is it different from Solar Walk?
Solar Walk 2 has all-new graphics, interface and updated planetary textures. Your exploration of the Solar system in Solar Walk 2 is guided by a carefully handpicked calendar, a collection of simulations of celestial events with stunning visuals. You can still fly around the Solar system and explore it on your own, like in Solar Walk 1, but now you have a comprehensive tour guide at your disposal.

The app contains In-App Purchases (Premium access).

Premium access allows you to enjoy space missions, satellites, celestial events, asteroids, dwarf planets and comets.

Unlock Premium access to the history of space exploration and man-made spacecraft. Travel with Voyager 1, see how gravity assists helped Cassini get to the outer edges of the Solar system, and explore Hubble as if you were right next to it.

Note: Solar Walk users with the app installed on device get unlimited access at a discount.

A feature I would like to see to your Solar Walk apps

Hello developers,

Happy new year! I just wanted to say that I like your Solar Walk apps, particularly the second version. The Solar Walk 2 app feels so real and detailed. Great job on making that app!! :)

There is a feature I would like to see to the Solar Walk apps (including the second version), and that is to add more minor moons. I love looking further into the smaller moons in our solar system. My favourite moon in the Solar System is Amalthea (Jupiter's Moon).

The minor moons I want to see in Solar Walk apps are:
Jupiter
-Metis
-Adrastea
-Amalthea
-Thebe
-Himalia
-Elara
-Carme
-Leda
-Lysithea
-Pasiphae

Saturn
-Pan
-Janus
-Skoll
-Aegaeon
-Ymir
-Anthe
-Pandora
-Daphnis

Uranus
-Bianca
-Puck
-Sycorax

Neptune
-Sao
-Neso
-Hippocamp

Pluto
-Kerberos
-Nix
-Hydra
-Styx

Please don't feel like I'm not forcing you to add these minor moons to the Solar Walk apps, but it's a feature that would probably make the Solar Walk apps more fun and interesting :)

Apart from that though, keep up the great work and have a great day!

Awesome

I just got this on 3.5.19 in the morning and love this app so I got the app but it took awhile to download but it downloaded and I played it for a awhile and enjoyed it love it I rate this app 5 stars because it is awesome! Also great textures! Next time can you please add other galaxies and supernovas. Venus and Jupiter look really nice.

Not impressed

Solar Walk was a great app. Absolutely fantastic. Solar Walk 2 is a let down in comparison. I find the navigation frustrating and fiddly, it "snaps" sometimes and you may be unexpectedly taken to a different planet or the sun. The zooming animations are slow and unnecessary and the new feature that automatically speeds up time is a pain to use or even turn off. At least it has more up to date information and a few more animated planets (such as Jupiter's clouds). If I could bring those to the old app with it's better controls I would because navigating this app is awkward.

Thank you for your opinion. Have you tried our Star Walk 2?
