It's unreasonable for them not to add constellation names.
Because there are no boundaries, you cannot determine which star belongs to which Chinese constellation.
Constellation names are a part of star names, and together they form a specialized noun for star names.
Perhaps the word 'supplement' can be used.

Also, Suzhou map should not be used. Suzhou map dates back to the 13th century.
It is meaningless for a sky culture that was completed in the 18th-19th century and has been passed down to today to use a 13th century illustration.

I feel confused when using Stellarium Mobile Plus.
I remember it was correct before.
Additionally, AI translation could be catastrophic for the East Asian region, whether in Chinese or Japanese. AI translation may only be suitable for regions with alphabetical languages.

Stellarium Mobile Plus is actually used by many people in China. However, many people cannot find a purchasing channel.
In China, the iOS system uses the Apple App Store, which is the same as in other parts of the world.
However, in China, the distribution of Android applications does not use the Google App Store, but relies on the mobile phone manufacturer's own app store.
The Google App Store (including almost all Google services) is blocked, and buyers cannot pay. If payment is required, VPN must be relied on, but most people do not have a convenient and practical VPN.
Therefore, on the Android system, you should cooperate with mobile phone manufacturers, including Huawei, Xiaomi, Honor, VIVO, and OPPO. These, plus Apple, are the top few in the Chinese mobile phone market.

The description of the reference star map for Korean sky culture is incorrect. It says it's based on the Suzhou map. Actually, it's not. The Korean sky culture is not based on the Suzhou map, but on Cheonsang Yeolcha Bunyajido.

This is a rubbings based on a 6th century star map from 1395, which is much earlier than the Suzhou map.
