All the satellite names and locations are on top of one another. I can not check mark the correct satellite I am looking for. This app has worked great for years but the last several months this has been an aggravating issue. I assume it is compatibility issue with my phone that needs addressed by developer. ### 2/5 — Loss of app use *2019-09-16, version 1.5.23* A faithful tool for RV (temporary) dish placement, this app won’t start with the latest series of iOS. A brief flash then it quits on an iPhone 8 Plus. The app was just updated, same sad story. ### 2/5 — Not working *2019-08-30, version 1.2.22* I have used this app for 3 years but now it doesn’t work at all. I have iPhone 6s software 12.4.1. Can you please fix ### 3/5 — App *2019-05-17, version 1.2.22* Ever since I updated my iOS this app doesn’t work very well. Can you guys get it fixed? It still doesn’t work. The satellites can’t even be found on the screen and then also it just moves left to right really fast. I don’t think it’s fixed yet ### 3/5 — Better *2019-05-16, version 1.2.22* It is a better but still jumps but very useable ### 1/5 — It used to be great *2019-05-03, version 1.5.15* I’ve used this app for 4 years and it has been great until yesterday when I tried to set my satellite dish up for my campsite and the app went crazy.It doesn’t show all the satellites and the ones that it does show are definitely not the right locations .They are way off .Please fix this fast .I use it for camping and I camp a whole lot .Right now I have no tv because this app will not work . ### 3/5 — Stopped Working *2019-04-27, version 1.5.13* I have used this app for many years, but up until recently it no longer shows the satellites in the sky on iPhone ### 2/5 — Not working *2019-04-25, version 1.5.13* The satellites will not show up on the screen when I point toward the southern sky, I have an IPHoNe 8+ is there an issue with compatibility it worked on my iPhone8 just fine I’ve just got the 8+ and I can’t get it to work the location services are on and everything else that uses location is working except this app any help with this issue would be great thank you will give 5stars after issue is resolved ### 2/5 — Quit working *2019-04-24, version 1.5.13* Have used for about 8 months and have given the site to many rv’ers. It’s quit working and the company doesn’t respond to emails. They ask for problem reports then be reply. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — No longer works. *2019-04-23, version 1.5.13* I have used with great success until recently. Will not show satellites anymore. ### 1/5 — Joseph A Cusimano *2019-04-20, version 1.5.13* Used it for a couple of months , paid the 3.99 to remove ads, now it does not work . ### 1/5 — Stop working since 2019 april *2019-04-18, version 1.5.13* It was a fine app until the begining of 2019 that stop working ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work with IOS 12.2 *2019-04-14, version 1.5.13* Worked great before current IOS update. Now the satellites do not show up or show up briefly after wiggling the phone. If the satellites show up when I turn to view the sky they disappear. ### 3/5 — Used for years, suddenly doesn’t work *2019-04-08, version 1.5.13* I have used this app for years successfully and as of recent it is no longer working for me. I have ruled out that it is an issue with my device as my proprietary apps for satellite LOS still work and other similar apps work. Unfortunately I now have to change to a different app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Satefinder *2023-06-09, version 1.5.24* Since the IOS update this APP is not working ### 1/5 — Don’t work *2022-10-13, version 1.5.24* Just want plug and play really. Select satellite and nothing happens, looked in sky nothing. I don’t really want to give it one star because it’s bum ! I deleted app. Because it’s pants ! ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2022-01-21, version 1.5.24* No longer works on iPhone 12 pro ### 1/5 — Jim M *2021-04-22, version 1.5.24* This site no longer works. It was great while it lasted but the owner company has totally given up the app blaming it on the IOS system. Don’t wasted your time trying trying to open the app. It’s dead! ### 1/5 — Batter drain iPhone XR *2020-07-01, version 1.5.24* If left active it drains the cel battery I abou 1-2 hrs from full charge. So fast the phone gets very hot Dangerous So far do not see same behaviour on iPad Pro gen 5 No other iPhone apps put sever drain on the battery Removing from iPhone Regards ### 1/5 — Update *2019-12-21, version 1.5.23* It's not update.it's too old ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for apple *2019-08-19, version 1.2.22* I purchased the full version thinking I would get the app to start working. No such luck. ### 1/5 — Not showing satellites *2019-06-27, version 1.2.22* This app used to work but no longer. I installed latest version because they said it fixed iOS update problem but it did not. I paid to get rid of commercials and would like that money back. ### 1/5 — Apple Update *2019-05-06, version 1.5.18* Since the current Apple IOS update cannot locate the satellites at all....need a fix please. ### 1/5 — No longer working... *2019-05-04, version 1.5.18* I also have an iPhone 8+...this app was working fine and now suddenly it doesn’t show any sats at all. I’ve tried re-calibrating compass but no change. Azimuth and elevation numbers are spinning. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easily find your Satellites *2023-06-04, version 1.5.24* I have been using this app for a long time. I camp in my motorhome and it helps me figure out if my roof mounted satellite dish will receive a signal. I have Dish Network so I use the app to find the 110, 119 & 129 degree satellites. If those are blocked, sometimes I can use the 61.5 degree satellite. ### 5/5 — Very Useful When You Have Trees Around *2021-06-15, version 1.5.24* I’m surrounded by tall trees so getting a strong signal was always a shot in the dark. I would be fine in the fall and winter when the leaves disappeared but early summer I would start dropping signal. I was all ready to call the arborist to chop down a tree. Luckily the app showed me the exact branch the was blocking the signal so I just pruned that single branch and the signal is at full strength. ### 5/5 — Problem *2019-08-28, version 1.2.22* Quit showing satellites. Iphone7. Latest IOS ### 5/5 — Happy Camper again *2019-05-16, version 1.2.22* Thanks for fixing the app. It makes it so easy to find the Satellites. ### 5/5 — Working again! May 2019 *2019-05-15, version 1.2.22* This app seems to be working again. Thanks for the update! ### 5/5 — Help *2019-04-08, version 1.5.13* I used this app a lot but it stopped locating the satellites this week. I miss using it to set up Dish on the go! ### 5/5 — العراقي *2019-02-03, version 1.5.13* برنامج جيد و رائع ### 5/5 — Motorhome dish *2018-09-02, version 1.5.11* We have have a dish mounted on top of our motorhome and a lot of camp grounds are lush with beautiful shade trees. Unfortunately trees and satellite Signals don’t coexist to well unless they’re dead or it’s spring or fall and there is no foliage on them. The Satfinderlite app is just the ticket to locate the spot to shut the motor off at. Before we pull into a campground spot we’ll exit the coach and take out our iPhone and locate the spot that we have a clear view of the birds. Once we’ve located them it a great Relaxing evening of TV. ### 5/5 — Excellent Sat Finder *2017-11-22, version 1.5* As other reviews this a great app, easy to set up and use, so simple. You can quickly see where your chosen sat is, and if anything is in the way, great for Motorhomes when deciding where to park. ### 5/5 — Works GREAT! *2017-09-13, version 1.5* Saves so much time & frustration in getting set up on the sats! And bonus - today I used it in a no cell area in a remote RV park. But logged on to the park's wifi, and it worked as well as if I was on 4G! And the ads don't get in the way. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
