Here's my latest toy for my Android phone. I like apps about planets and moons and stars.These Android apps will show you a picture of the night sky on your screen and show you the constellations, where the planets are and what satellites are flying overhead.
Here's the links...
Google Sky Map
Free of course. Easy to use. Fun.

Satellite ARL
Free. Quite interesting to see if you can pick out the ISS.

. 
There's a bit of trivial fun. Now head away from the city lights and see what you can find.
Also try Star Chart...

I have also tried Planet Finder

Gazing at the heavens, hoping nothing de-orbits on me. Cheers. Si.
