Description
Jupiter Simulator is an astronomy app that shows the location of the four largest Jupiter moons, and the Great Red Spot.
All positions can be shown in real time, or in faster animation. You can set the clock to other times in the future or past.
You can navigate in three dimensions, and zoom in and out. The orbits of the moons can be made visible. You can also predict the next time the great red spot will be visible, and also, search for shadow transits on the planet's disc for each satellite!

Ratings and Reviews
Looks fancy, but might be inaccurate
I have to say that I used it just once and compared it to my Jupiter observations from last night, and while the movement of the Great Red Spot seemed more or less accurate, the orbiting of the moons with respect to our perspective failed. This is important, because some times we might want to observe/image moon transits.
But then, I’m unsure if I didn’t use the app correctly or whether it’s the app’s fault. I suspect, the latter ;)
