What's New in SatFinder

September 16, 2019

Improved error messaging for disabled Compass calibration

User reviews

Does not work

Tried Target and air view, entered location manually and automatically. Tried calibrating (figure 8) to no avail. Either never saw a satellite, or the showed up in the wrong arc or incorrect position. Waste of $7

Please fix target view.

I would give 5 stars if this feature worked but it doesn't. Please fix it and I will give 5 stars. I frequently travel in a Motorhome so every new campsite requires finding the right site with access to the southern sky and setting up the dish each time. the right sight and even the position of the coach is critical for DirecTV. Quick set up of my dish would be improved if the target feature in this app worked as intended. Other than that, Kudos!

Nice try

Target sat does not work. Why bother buying??

Waste of time

This worked the first time I used it and I was impressed. However, it hasn't worked since. It comes up with an error message that says I don't have a hardware compass therefore it can't work - funny how it worked the first time!
There is no way to respond to the error message, I have tried to re-load it but to no avail. DO NOT BUY THIS APP a waste of ยฃ5
