Note: doesn't work well with iPhone 4 due to the camera not performing well in dark conditions

Cool - thanks for the info. I've just bought the app and will test it tonight ... I've wanted something like this for a while.

Anyone tried this out, yet?

There's no reviews in the App Store to base a purchase on.

Yes, I've tried it, it shows a value

I haven't had the opportunity to check it against a dedicated SQM meter yet.

But, given the price of the app (less than you'd pay for shipping for any astro gadget) I don't need reassurances before I buy...

Cheers
Steffen.

True, true, Stefan!

I often buy stuff on a whim, but, thought I'd check in first.
