Lunarphase Pro Query

Anyone use LunarPhase Pro software from the Nightsky observer.com website -
would welcome comments from users before I purchase the software.

It's an old review, and LPP has upgraded since then, but you can read a
review of LPP and VMA both at:

Great - the libration animation is a joy to behold and it complements
virtual moon atlas wonderfully - each does different things well.

I bought a download copy a few days ago and it looks OK. Maybe not quite as big a step up from Virtual Lunar Atlas as I thought but still has some useful features. Of particular use is the feature showing you when sunrise and sunset on a particular feature is and when any particular illumination conditions will be repeated.

I prefer Virtual for use at the scope as a map, and LPP for earlier in the
day, planning out what I want to look at (or earlier in the month or even in
the year, looking for favorable observing times for different features).
