That being said, for .99 it's certainly worth picking up.

The main problem I have with Starwalk is the lack of a complete catalog. The most common stars and Messier objects only.
Starmap HD is much better for those of us building observing lists with telescopes or photography equipment. There are thousands of fairly interesting photography targets you can capture with a good scope (or a tracking mount and a 50-200mm lens for the larger ones) that aren't in the Messier catalog of 110.
