### 1/5 — Cercare satelliti?

*2020-01-18, version 3.1*

Completamente inutile

### 5/5 — A good app

*2018-05-18*

It seems to be a good app , I haven’t use it yet but checked the functions, . Won’t be regretting surely.

### 2/5 — Augmented view unstable.

*2017-08-07*

While orienting towards sky, augmented view of arc is unstable making it not easy to read. While trying to get arc in proper view on tablet, the satellites drop out. I have to excite program and launch to try again. Unfortunately, this happens repeatedly.
Unable to find a way to get this issue to the programmer. Like what it wants to do, but if cannot resolve drop out, it will be a wasted purchase.

### 5/5 — Sat Finder Pro HD

*2017-03-05, version 2.2*

I really value this app whilst trying to find Optus D2 Satellite and configuring 11k300 for the EWTN for my customers. It's such a valuable tool as I can't afford the $3500 Satellite Tuner and so this app gives me such an advantage. Thank you developers.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2016-08-01, version 2.2*

Used this app for a while and hasn't disappointed with clear instruction on its use,with auto satellite frequency and other important info updated regularly.

You can set up your favourite satellite and at a glance using you built in camera on your iPhone or iPad view any obstruction in view.

Great for the camper van or carvan with a manual or auto satellite system who wants to check line of site before he pitches.
Or even installing a fixed dish at home could save  you wasted time.

Would highly recommend .

### 5/5 — Helpful App

*2016-07-29*

Helpful and easy to use. 👍

### 1/5 — hatte

*2016-05-13, version 2.1*

die app vor langer Zeit mal runtergeladen, kann aber nicht sagen, dass sie damals mehr Sinn gebracht hätte als heute. Wer erwartet, damit seine Antenne ausrichten zu können, sollte erst mal nachdenken, bevor er eine negative Bewertung abgibt. 'Lustig' ist allerdings, die Position im Kamerabild zu sehen. Nur leider stimmt diese Position weder mit automatischer Kalibrierung und Lokalisation noch mit manueller Nachregulierung, daher keine Extra-Sterne.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2015-09-11*

This is not for The novice. No way to imput which sat you are looking for. Can not find Direct TV for USA. In fact most sat listed are from other countries.

### 1/5 — Scam!!!

*2015-08-16*

Doesn't work at all. It's a $4 scam!!! 
Apple should check paid apps before allowing them in app store.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2015-03-27*

Good app
