You don’t really realize how many satellites there are until you actually see them all laid out like this. Highly recommend to check out! ### 5/5 — About time *2026-03-31* Used satellitemap.space to check if a moving star might be a satellite now most of it seems to be in this app! can we get landscape orientation on every screen? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Locked Down *2026-04-05* Edit: I suppose I was a bit overzealous. I went in expecting a free, iOS-based version of the website with extra features that would be monetized. When I installed the app, all features were available, but they eventually disappeared with zero explanation. It just feels wrong, yknow? More communication as to the paid nature of the app is necessary, in summary. Original: Completely locked itself down to non-paying users after around 48 hours on the store. I can’t see anything but Starlink, can’t use AR mode, can’t see satellite data, can’t rewind or fast forward time, can’t view the sky from the ground, can’t see the newsfeed, can’t use widgets or countdowns. It’s practically featureless at the free tier. Just make it paid upfront at this point. **Developer response:** Thanks for the review. Satellite Tracker 3D is a paid app with a free trial so you can explore it before purchase. The trial isn't intended as a permanent free tier — Core ($3.99, lifetime) unlocks all the features you mentioned and more. We kept the price low and there's no subscription required to access everything (unlike similar apps), and no ads. We'd appreciate an updated review if you decide to give it a go. -Justin. ### 3/5 — Location not accurate. *2026-03-30* Just started using this app, right off the bat the location shows in the area of San Diego. That about 1200 miles off. This app does. It show up in location services. The browser interface is more accurate. **Developer response:** Thanks for trying the app! You can set your location in Settings — either type an address or lat/long coordinates, or tap Geo-locate to use your device's GPS. On iPhone, GPS is very accurate. If you're using the app on a Mac, location is estimated from your network and can be way off — entering your coordinates manually works best there. A new update was just approved too with improvements worth grabbing. Hope this helps! ### 4/5 — Great app *2026-04-20* It’s an amazing app but I’d like to know how to get an account please. **Developer response:** Thanks for the review, At the moment there is no account or login needed, all preferences and settings are remembered on your phone/ipad. Any in-app purchase unlocks across all your devices. 'Favorite' satellites are icloud-saved. If in future there is a need to have login/logout function (for example to move data between website and app or vice versa) then it will be added! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-07-31* What an amazing accomplishment ! I used the previous version for a long time and it was awesome but rather slow. But now, with all the added features and speed, it‘s over the top. I also have a SDR and the HAM features are really fun. I bought the full version; support this developer; he‘s doing something really special here all on his own! ### 5/5 — All there what I wanted. Well looked after app *2026-05-23* More complete than other satellites app. Seems updated frequently adding new features. ### 5/5 — The best satellite tracking app. *2026-05-23* Excellent UI, get the Pro!! ### 5/5 — Regular use *2026-05-20* I love this app for its accuracy ### 5/5 — Well put together *2026-05-15* Extremely impressed, nothing else compares. Worth the pro upgrade. ### 5/5 — Great features and beautiful UI *2026-05-08* Accurate and visually appealing. Still testing sdr/ham but its smooth as silk ### 5/5 — A must download *2026-05-03* This app has helped me achieve my goal of doing lrpt from 137mhz polar satellites. The features are very helpful for someone interested in sdr or satellite work ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Absolutely Incredible! *2026-04-23* I almost never leave reviews, but I felt compelled to do so for this app. And I’m usually a free app guy. But this is a phenomenal tracker app that I think is so great, I bought the pro version. It is incredibly powerful. I cannot say enough great things about this app. From the “radar” view to the simulated future passes, this thing rocks. Hoping to catch a re-entry that’s predicted for my area tonight! Worth every penny! **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words — and for supporting the Pro version. Glad you’re enjoying the features. On the website side I recently rebuilt the celestial transit finder to make it fast and easy, and will add the same function to the next app release. In Sydney, the ISS will fly in front of the face of the moon this evening. I hope to see that with binoculars. Hope you get to see a re-entry! ### 5/5 — Very satisfying purchase *2026-04-16* The paid version of this app has pretty much every feature I could want as a satellite enthusiast. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — The Best *2026-04-11* One of best app out there 🤙 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
