Crash found

I was browsing the satellites when one of the satellites had so many lines it crashed the app and It kept crashing the app

Do not waste your money

Every time I open app it seems to say server unavailable tracking and passes may not be accurate. The sky view is complete garbage and I don’t even understand how to use it. Also I wish it actually explained all the types of satellites. Seems like if u pay for a satellite app it should have lots of info.

Space Junk

App is not updating all the selected satellites. All I get is the ISS and Amateur Radio. Waste of €10

Is this maintained any more?

Was a nice app but when I pulled it out recently it doesn’t appear to be updating the data for the satellites any more…
