希望支持简体中文

Hello developer, I hope you can support Simplified Chinese. Many Chinese users do not know English or cannot understand it, which prevents them from using this app. They have to use translation software or AI to translate it, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, I hope you can add Simplified Chinese support to this app, as it would make it much more convenient for many Chinese users.

Response from developer

Thank you for the suggestion! 谢谢您的建议!

Only cause I had to pay.

This app is darn good. It’s just because I had to pay it, that’s the only reason why I gave it four stars. But wow we got to use an app to see the stars in the city.😭🥲😅🤣🧐🤨🧐

Review update

Following my poor review, I have managed to get past the "quick start" screen and the app looks great. In truth I've not yet used it much do my 5 star rating is based on the general look and feel of the app.

App does not work

I’ve tried everything and unable to get the “motion” to work. Waste of money.

Earth image not high definition.

Zoomed in on the Earth to my home state and the image is fuzzy. Not sharp at all. I wanted to see what was flying directly overhead my location, but the image quality is poor at best. I was expecting better than this.

Still the best!

I’ve used this for years and it still has the best features and interface of anything else out there - despite its age. There was a brief period recently where it disappeared from the App Store and I feared it had become abandoned! Thankfully it was a temporary hiccup and the developer is still active.

Superb

Well executed star gazing / satélite tracking app. I can’t believe it’s free.

Amazing - Even More Interesting Than I Expected

I had no idea there were so many satellites out there. I thought I would download this and check it out occasionally. I suspect I'll be looking at it often.

I found myself with so many questions about the satellites launched by my country and others. About the International Space Station (you can see what they see, including how the planets are aligned. You can even see where and what time to see planets and satellites from your back yard. When it's time, you can point the app in the sky and see an overlay of the app's view on your camera's view to find and identify what you're looking for. Once you find it, set down the phone and appreciate what you see.

Thank you for this wonderful app!

Great For Tracking Satellites

This is an integral part of my satellite tracking activities, it allows me to plan to and get photos of satellites as they go by overhead. I did turn off the music though! I use Orbitrack to point my camera and with it I can get photos of lots of satelllites as they go by. It is easy to use, it includes a lot of satellites that other programs do not - like the ones who's orbits are NOT shown in Space Track.

I love this app! It works perfectly with my SkySafari 7 Plus! 5 stars!

Solid app Needs a sort by magnitude feature

No updates for several years so not sure if this app is still being actively developed. If it is, it needs a sort by magnitude feature to be really useful.

Out of date, incorrect locations

I apparently missed how old this app was and the last update. It’s fascinating to see all the satellites but they are definitely not in the right place. Seeing something overhead I pull up this app and can’t find it at all. Then my star gazing app alerts that the ISS is passing overhead. That was indeed it, but despite verifying my correct location on this app it shows the ISS on the other side of the world. No wonder I’ve not been able to figure out what I’m looking at. Time to find another satellite tracking app.

Works well

This is a really good and easy to use piece of software. It does everything it should and is accurate. It is up to date with Keplers as well and this is an area where quite a few of other Satellite Trackers fail. I can really recommend this App.

Fantastic

This had been a very useful tool for checking satellite positions while I’m on the go. Being able to set alarms is very useful. However it would be nice to be able to favorite satellites.

Super

Great except for the cheesy music that you cannot turn off.

I absolutely loved Satellite Safari, and was recently very excited to learn of this new incarnation. It is a wonderful app. Great design and incredible for finding satellites as well as identifying celestial features like planets and stars. However for the life of me I cannot imagine who came up with the idea of adding automatic music that plays, and that there seems to be no way to turn off. I just can’t even…🤦🏻smh.

Motion off by 15 degrees or so.

Outstanding app.
It seems off by 15 degrees or so when I use motion.
Any solutions? Is there a mag var adjustment somewhere in the app?

Excellent App on iPhone 12

Excellent tracking software for the money! I am new to app tracking software, but it awesome so far!
