Like Startracker 4S, Star Map 3D Plus is a nice astronomy app that allows you to point your phone at at area in the sky (or even to the ground) and it will show you where the stars and planets are at. Tap on a star or planet and you'll get some facts about it.
It looks like a pretty good app, better than the Milky Way one that I mentioned the other day. While I still consider Startracker 4S to be a nicer looking app (and has the more traditional versions of the commonly known constellations), Startracker 4S doesn't have the tap to get more info about the star or planet feature that Star Map 3D Plus has.
You might want to have both. Get Star Map 3D Plus while it's free because it's normally $2.99. Then get Startracker 4S if it goes on sale for free.
