  • Rip off

    I bought this app specifically because it advertised I’d be able to track the Inspiration4 spacecraft but after I paid $10 the link they provided to set up tracking was no good. I looked for a way to contact the developer or support and couldn’t find any, go figure. What a scam.

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear the app didn't meet your expectations. There was an initial change to the data source which was posted to our support web page and instructional video. You can get to the app support site from a link within the app Settings > About. Under Support is the updated instructions.
  • Great App

    This is a great app, it’s 5 stars easy. The one thing I would love to see is the ability to filter the amateur radio satellites by band. Great work, none the less!
  • Most useful app, but needs easier way to select UTC.

    Unless I’ve missed it in the app, the FAQ, or the User Guide, there seems to be no way to set the displayed clock for UTC.
    Thanks for the response to set a custom location. It works. One point is that “GMT” should be replaced by “UTC” throughout.

    Developer Response

    UTC time can be shown by adding a custom location and selecting the GMT time zone.
  • Yay! You’re working on it again!

    Today, I revise my original review. As much as I love your app, I really became frustrated with the fact that it just sat for a long time untouched.

    A friend told me about another app (ISS Tracker) that I started using, but it’s still not as good as GoSatWatch! Yours is the best satellite tracking app in the iOS App Store.

    Glad to see you’re back at it again! Keep up the great work and keep the features coming.

    Thanks!

  • What happened?

    Unable to update orbital data? Have tried reinstalling but still not working.

    Developer Response

    NASA has decommissioned the server that the app uses to track the ISS. An update will be released soon. The settings can be changed to use an alternate server or enable the ISS in the Space Station Missions group which uses a different server. See support website for more information on how to do this.
  • Great app

    App is fantastic. I use it constantly to track ham radio says. Thumbs up baby!
  • If your app crashes in iOS 14.2

    If the app crashes immediately upon opening. Deleting and reinstalling the app fixes the problem. Developer, thank you for the quick fix.

    Developer Response

    This appears to be a problem with iOS 14.2 for some people and is being investigated. In the mean time completely removing the app and data and re-installing appears to get the app working again. Please contact our support if the app still doesn't start.

  • Best satellite tracker of the bunch!

    Even though the developer hasn’t done any updates in years it is still hands down the best of the satellite trackers for the iPad and iPhone. Clean, easy to use interface without unnecessary clutter choking other similar apps. Easy to add additional satellites. The perfect no-nonsense app for satellite tracking.

    to the developer: please please please update to keep this great app working!

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the support! The app is still tested with each new iOS update to make sure the app continues to work. The app will continue to be supported.
  • Excellent

    A really great App for locating satellites etc.

    I find it’s very intuitive to use. I note another reviews comments about the compass points swapping around and being reversed - I simply don’t have that problem at all so can only assume whatever the problem was has now been resolved.

    Likewise, I have (so far) suffered no stability issues.

    Highly recommend and, I feel, worth the money
