What are some comet locator apps?
These are the only ones I found on my droid.
PlanetDroid has an augmented-reality view, showing where the comet and planets are on the camera display. It's small, simple, and works well. No sizzle, just steak, lean steak at that. It uses gps so watch your battery, or set your location as a favorite (or turn off gps and use network location only).
PrediSat will bring up the Heavens-Above.com website with your geolocation where you can get starcharts etc but no augmented reality.
"Comet Pan-STARRS of 2013" is free but seems pretty useless.
ISS Detector is free but doesn't include a comet locator unless you pay for a comet locator extension.
Mobile Observatory has a comet locator but is not free.
