SkySafari 6/LiveSky
Anyone on the boards use a combination of SkySafari 6 and LiveSky?
I know SS was popular, and assume it still is - I just bought the yearly access to LiveSky and am waiting to get SS6 until the next sale (seems to be monthly, and I am betting they do something for the 50th of Apollo 11). I am currently going to through all of my old logs and transferring to LiveSky - assuming that everything will get copied over to SS6 when I get it.
So anyway, anyone else use this combination? If so, how?

Re: SkySafari 6/LiveSky
I subscribed to LiveSky a year ago. Then the sky took a dump on me and I’ve not used it too much. It is a neat way to add gear, build lists, and share observations and stats.
It’s a bell and a whistle. Not sure I’ll renew the subscription though. I still like SS5 over SS6 anyway.

Re: SkySafari 6/LiveSky
It's interesting going through my old observations and adding to LiveSky (and I assume SS6 when I get it) to see how my eyes and style evolved over time. Hopefully I can pick up from almost where I left off!bladekeeper wrote: ↑Tue Jun 25, 2019 4:37 am I subscribed to LiveSky a year ago. Then the sky took a dump on me and I’ve not used it too much.

I never had SS5 - SS4, skipping to SS6!
The year's subscription to LiveSky was $9.99 so I figured I can try it for that price.
