Friend Constellations are an easy way to organize and find your favorite friends in Sky. You can use the Relationship Menu to access the friends you’ve made along your journey!
Where do I access Friend Constellations?
You can access and edit Friend Constellations from Home and Aviary Village at the Constellation table.
Note: When interacting with the Constellation table, the Spirit Constellation might open first. To open the Friend Constellation, tap on the icon at the top of the screen.
A List View button in the upper-right corner of the Friends Constellation page allows you to switch from Constellation view to List view.
Instead of having friends displayed in the constellation pages, you can now view them in a list. Handy if you would like to see more of your friends, or remove multiple friends at once.

- Crown
- Umbrella
- Mantas
- Harp
- Spirit Stone
- Crabs
How many friends can fit in one Friend Constellation?
Each Friend Constellation can group together ten (10) individual friends, for a total of sixty (60) friends able to be arranged whichever way you’d like inside your custom constellations.
How many total friends can I have in Sky?
With 0.34.0, the friend limit is capped at 2,000 friends. If you are already at or above this limit, you will need to remove some friends before you can add new ones.
Note that in Constellation View, you can only see 110 friends at a time.
- Up to 10 friends can be added to each of the 6 Friend Constellations for a total of 60 friends.
- Up to 50 friends can be seen on the “main” Friends tab.
- 60 + 50 = Up to 110 friends visible at any given time
Each time you log in to Sky, your “main” Friends constellation will refresh with (if available) new friends you’ve made that haven’t been added to a Friend Constellation. When you remove a friend from any constellation, the previously occupied friend spot will be refreshed with the next friend you’ve made based on the order in which you added each friend.
If you would like to see all of your friends, switch to List View.
How can I delete Friend Constellations?
To delete a Friend Constellation, you must move or remove all of the friends you’ve placed on that Friend Constellation; once it is empty, the Friend Constellation will disappear once you navigate away from the current screen.
