What's New in OrbitLog
1.0.7
September 16, 2026
//v1.0.7 - Way more satellites to spot - More real passes show up overhead. - New mission info for over a dozen more satellites and probes - tap into details and you'll get a real country/launch-year/what-it-does backstory instead of "unknown." - Smarter notifications - if you haven't starred any satellites, alerts now default to just the well-known ones (ISS, Hubble, Starlink, etc.) instead of every satellite in the sky, so you won't get flooded. - Cleaner notification text - launch, pass, and meteor shower alerts are easier to read at a glance on the lock screen. - Star Gazers now auto-refreshes - pull to refresh anytime, and it quietly updates itself every 5 minutes while you're on that tab. - Ask Siri - "Hey Siri, when's the next pass?" or "what's worth watching tonight?" now work straight from OrbitLog's tracking data. (Ready and only for iOS 27!)
