User reviews

Better a decade ago

This app was better 10 years ago. Nowadays we can't even search for satellites—and how the hell does adding TLEs even work? Oh right—it doesn't.

Difficult to navigate

Could not get app to track ISS or any other satellite for amateur radio. Data base of satellites was found but would not load or display. Could not find how to display predicted pass path. Maybe operator error, maybe function doesn’t exist

Woo Hoo, ISS Icon is back

Thank you! Sure makes locating the station easier if you have a dozen or more satellites you are following.

Great stuff.

It’s completely broken, now.

This app was working fine, until the recent update. Everything in the GUI is completely unusable, the map is the wrong size and the satellite coordinates are missing. I’ve tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Doesn’t work on iPhone XS, iPad Air 2 or iPad Pro 12.9. All are running IOS 14.2

Please add Apple Watch app

Needs Apple Watch app and iOS 10 support.

Needs to utilize built in compass, accelerometer, and GPS.

Not easy to switch viewing modes. Needs a button instead of having to rotate iPhone.

Needs to show more info on each satellite. Such as uplink and downlink frequencies for ham radio satellites.

Should have option to show daylight and night areas on map.

Needs to be able to switch between 12 & 24 hour clock modes.

Not easy to tell when a satellite will next be passing my location.

Needs to utilize accelerometer for augmented reality view.
