What's New in Satvis
2.1
November 6, 2026
NEW • iPhone Duo support • Camera passthrough in sky view • Satellite positions on a 2D map • 3D spacecraft models in the satellite info panel • More Graphics settings, including frame rate and a higher-detail star map IMPROVED • Design: a refreshed look, a better iPad layout, better support for large text, and numbers and dates in the device's regional format. • Performance: the globe redraws only when something on screen moves, reducing battery consumption. Satellite data and 3D models load faster and use less memory, panning stays smooth with thousands of satellites, and iPhones can run at 120 fps. • Sky view: look up from any saved location or, through a long-press menu, from any spot on the globe. The satellite in the crosshair gets a more compact card, and terrain turns on automatically, so hills and mountains show on the horizon. • Web app alignment: panels, settings and the sky view card work as they do on the web, and tracking a satellite shows it from the same camera angle. • Reliability: better recovery from loading errors, and many smaller fixes.
