## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2017-08-16, version 1.4*

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

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2016-06-05, version 1.3*

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 £5

### 1/5 — Mr

*2014-02-10, version 1.0*

AR does not work despite Location Services being enabled - waste of money

### 2/5 — Nice try

*2017-06-04, version 1.4*

Target sat does not work. Why bother buying??

### 3/5 — Please fix target view.

*2017-08-12, version 1.4*

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!

### 4/5 — Amazing

*2014-04-12*

If I could use one word to describe this app, it would be "Amazing". A must have for anyone trying to point a dish. Looking forward to the next update. Keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2014-10-25, version 1.2*

I used the app on my iPhone 6plus and it works great. Supper helpful with finding a signal
