To use a star chart or stargazing app effectively, first, ensure that you understand how to orient yourself based on cardinal directions (north, south, east, west). Then, align the chart or app with your current direction, either by manually adjusting or using the app’s GPS feature. From there, you can identify celestial objects by matching their positions on the chart or app with what you see in the sky. Some apps even offer augmented reality features to overlay celestial objects onto your device’s camera view.
