User reviews

Does what I need it to do and great support by the developer

After my favorite amateur radio satellite tracking app was removed, I started looking for a new one. I downloaded a number but found that they just did not fit what I needed/wanted and were mostly too complicated. This app doesn’t have many reviews, but I figured it was worth a shot since I wasn’t having any luck.

Really happy I took the leap. (Not a huge one considering it’s only $1.49 a month!). I was a bit concerned when I first downloaded it since it did not seem to contain the satellites I was interested in. I shot off an email to Craig, the developer. He responded in about two hours and walked me through a database update that’s solved to the problem. Now it works the way I need it too. Great support from Craig! Thanks.

Excellent tracking app

This app is very useful for working amateur satellites. It is convenient, dependable and accurate. Creators are responsive to emails requesting new satellite additions to the already extensive database. Highly recommended.

Minor bugs overall great

I’ve been using it for a week or so and although there are some minor issues like layout problems and pass filtering crashing the app it is easy to use and has worked great for me starting off working sats handheld.

Databases fixed

Ok, now all the satellite databases load/good. Thank you Craig.

Databases corrupted

The program works well most of the time. But several of the databases are corrupted when I try to look for a satellite. They haven't been compiled properly. Many of the databases work well.
