Me too! I've also been looking for an astronomy app that's not super complex, and not like a projection of the sky, just a list: "What's in the sky tonight," ordered by most-commonly-wondered about. Like "1) If you look to the West you'll probably see Venus."



I’ve been happy with Sky Guide over the years. It’s not a list but it tells you what you’re looking at and you can set it to arbitrary times and locations. Like I can know what my girlfriend would see in Argentina tonight while sitting in my apartment in the US.

It is a projection and not a list but it’s very handy and helps you identify objects better than a list would.
