Why is " Astronomy App" appearing in my Cellular Data System services?

Astronomy App keeps showing up in my Cellular Data System Services and I haven't installed any apps on my device or my Apple Id Account.


Can you provide feedback. Thanks.

Astronomy is not an app, it is part of the Astronomy wallpaper. It uses cellular data to get astronomy data and location. It is likely you have used it before and the location of the Moon, planets, etc is dependent on your location. If you disable the location service, it will make it inactive.
