5 stars because it does exactly what I need it to do for purposes of moon tracking. It's free without ads because it collects anonymized telemetry statistics in the background, which I have found uses up a significant portion of my battery.

Had this app for years without problem, but now suddenly it starts draining my battery quickly due to background processes. Luckily I could turn those off in Android settings.

the moon widget turns into a red circle with an exclamation mark unless you grant it all those permissions that it states will share with third parties (access to precise location, phone permissions and background location access at all times) . i only granted its access to approximate location at first, which would be enough to calculate the accurate moon phase, the result was the big red exclamation mark didn't go away but an ad for a local app immediately popped up from the bottom 😡
