The level of effort, detail and dedication into running this app is an exemplar. I have been using it for ~5 years, the amount of times it has saved me from missing out a SpaceXYZ launch is out of the roof. Until that mars population stat starts counting, keep it up and god speed! ### 5/5 — Love the App- use it all the time *2024-05-10* I laaunch this app more than Instagram. I love seeing when the next launch is going to be and when SpaceX puts the Starship launches on the board. The launch / land statistics page is amazing. Looking over how successful SpaceX has been is mind blowing considering no other company/government is doing anything even close to their success rates. Thr update is fantastic, my only critique would be on the past mission details page stack the booster stats instead of putting them in a row. It’ll make viewing on mobile platform cleaner. Otherwise great job!! ### 5/5 — A Reliable, and Thoroughly Updated/Upgraded App! *2024-05-10, version 2.0* I live near the Kennedy Space Center, and have been using this app to track SpaceX launches for years. This was one of the most detailed and reliable sources of date-time-details that anyone produced. Now (10 May, 2024) it has been significantly upgraded with incredibly detailed information on each booster and ship that SpaceX has flown. I’m really impressed with the amount of work that was put into this! SpaceX is a wildly dynamic company compared to every other launch provider in history. They modify everything at a moment’s notice, and it’s really difficult to know when and where to watch their launches and landings, because they don’t do public relations very well. I use this app, as well as Florida Today, and SpaceflightNow to plan for, and watch almost every mission. I recommend it to everyone! My sincere thanks to the developers and whoever maintains this beautiful app 24 hours a day! ### 5/5 — Great app to track SpaceX launches down to the second *2024-05-05, version 1.0.12* Love this app, but when I step outside at night to see the launch, the white background is blinding. A dark mode would be much appreciated! Edit: dark mode has been added, awesome! ### 5/5 — Great look in the new update *2024-05-04, version 2.0* New update looks really good. This is one of my favourite apps… ### 5/5 — Launched *2024-03-04, version 1.0.12* We live in Tampa and we can enjoy the launches from our home on the Bay on a clear night. Outstanding job and we do appreciate everyone that works on SpaceX Would love to have a chance to be there in person in the control center or orbit the earth one day Thank you for giving us the WOW in our day. ### 5/5 — Dark mode *2024-01-19, version 1.0.12* Awesome app. Would be great if there was a dark mode theme. ### 5/5 — A lovely, simple app *2023-12-13, version 1.0.12* This work of love is my go to app for tracking SpaceX missions, locations and local time of launch. I’m grateful the author continues to support this. If he happens to read this I just want to say thanks. ### 5/5 — My opinion *2023-10-23, version 1.0.12* As I’m growing up because I’m nine, I have been wanting to be an astronaut or at least someone who works at SpaceX or NASA. I love having sleepovers with my cousins then seeing Starlink afterwards. Thank you for making the app and hearing my opinion. ### 5/5 — Launch dates *2023-08-31, version 1.0.12* I have thoroughly enjoyed this app but am confused about a recent starship launch date. Clearly there is a lot of excitement by SpaceX fans about when the next launch will occur. You show Starship 2 launching September 8th, which is very soon, yet there is no discussion or even acknowledgment of this on social media. My question is, where do you get your launch dates from? I ask because I have posted the launch date and it is rejected by some groups. Thank you for keeping us all up to date on SpaceX launch schedule. ### 5/5 — Best and most Reliable *2023-07-30* Update: I still love the app, but you’re more than a month behind on your Twitter news feed and 3 years on the Media. Get rid of News and Media. Keep the stats if you want. Missions are the most important thing that we’re looking for. **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately due to changes in the API for Twitter (X) and other sources, we are no longer able to pull that data. The next update does remove the News and Media tabs and has a nice overhaul to the missions section! ### 5/5 — Best and most Reliable *2023-07-11* Update: I still love the app, but you’re one month behind on your Twitter news feed. There is no better SpaceX app than SpaceXNow to keep you apprised of all upcoming launches, whether it be at CCSFS, KSC,VSFB or Boca Chica. Great content and the photography comes from one of the best in the industry. ### 5/5 — 1 SpaceX app *2023-05-22, version 1.0.12* for the iPhone 6! ### 5/5 — Great app for tracking launch schedules *2023-03-17, version 1.0.12* Really enjoy watching the launches at night. This lets me be ready. Suggested improvements: Let user filter by location to get only the notifications they want, example, I can only see launches from KSC AND CCSFP. Let user set a quiet time so the do not receive push notifications from this app in the middle of the night unless they want them. 24 hour notice at 2am is not necessary. Thanks for helping me catch the launches. ### 5/5 — Wish app told direction of launch *2023-01-17, version 1.0.12* I wish the app would show the direction of launch. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t work anymore with iPhone release 17.3.1 *2024-03-17, version 1.0.12* New bug ! ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus *2024-02-27, version 1.0.12* La connexion avec leur serveur ne se fait plus. Impossible de voir les prochains lancements ### 1/5 — Need information for the upcoming launches *2023-05-19, version 1.0.12* I would appreciate to see some changes in the app for example: Clicking on upcoming launch should provide some details which will give many people a bit of idea about the launch event. ### 1/5 — Better spacex apps put there *2022-07-01, version 1.0.12* Excessive notifications, poor UI. Confusing data and crashes too much. ### 1/5 — not connecting *2021-10-22, version 1.0.12* not connecting anymore... abandoned app probably. was a good one. ### 1/5 — Broken now *2021-02-19, version 1.0.12* Worked great for a while, past week servers are down I guess it’s not being supported anymore. ### 1/5 — funktioniert nicht mehr *2021-02-19, version 1.0.12* leider funktioniert diese tolle app nicht mehr ### 1/5 — No longer connects to server *2021-02-19, version 1.0.12* Started well, now can’t connect to server and crashes out after server error message. Pity, was a good app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-02-18, version 1.0.12* Doesn’t work at al ### 1/5 — Not working *2021-02-17, version 1.0.12* App not working at all. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best app to track SpaceX Launches *2025-10-24, version 2.3* Sinply the best app to track SpaceX launches! I’m only missing the option to buy the developers a coffee via in-app-purchases. I believe this option was present in versions 1.x and I would be happy to pay from time to time for this wonderful and the constant data updates :) ### 5/5 — Good *2025-03-23, version 2.3* Yep. ### 5/5 — Great App for Tracking Launches *2025-02-18, version 2.3* This developer is one of the best I’ve seen. Great app with a clean interface. Likes feedback and makes smart changes. Keep it up ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2025-01-08* Amazing app, I check it multiple times a day to see if times have changed or some new has been added. Love the stats page. Could I make a suggestion? Please add a Calendar to subscribe to. I would love to have these events in my iPhone calendar so reminders and such can be enabled and used. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Need Booster Landing Info! *2024-11-03, version 2.2* I love this SpaceX Fan app! I would love it if you could add the booster landing data to this app! ### 5/5 — Just the data *2024-10-29, version 2.2* Easy to use, gives you all the stats and info you need. Just as I like it! ### 5/5 — Something has gone wrong. *2024-07-13, version 2.1* Until a few days ago, this was a very nice, handy app. Now, suddenly nothing shows up. It's unclear what has gone wrong, although as the iOS client has not changed recently, it would suggest there is a problem with the server(s) or network resources. ### 5/5 — New update is amazing *2024-06-23, version 2.1* Great new update, the whole overhaul of the UI and responsiveness is excellent. Great job! ### 5/5 — The best app for SpaceX launches *2024-05-17* It may have taken them 6 years for a fresh update but they’ve completely nailed it. They incorporated most of the features the community has requested the the old version lacked. These developers are real spaceflight nerds! Awesome to see. I have a feeling it won’t be another 6 years for more updates. ### 5/5 — Really good *2024-05-13, version 2.0* It’s great to see what’s coming up and the new details pages are great. What would be useful is a calendar style page, so you can see at a glance when everything is. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
