Awesome satellites!

I love how you can see and check out the ISS, but the 1 problem is I cannot see satellites orbits so if you could add that thank you

Great app

Love this app yet can't seem to get updates. Not that the stars and planets are going to change but wrinkles could be ironed out, such as Launch dates for Starlink satellites being shown as the year 1923. 😂

Duplicate date

November 5th has 2 listings for daily events. When you tap one in the second listing it comes up with November 6 date and time.
Is the rest of the month incorrect??? Does this happen other times and this is why I can’t see ISS. Otherwise love this app.

Upgrade or take it off the App Store!

This was last updated 4 years ago? Just recently upgraded constellations for 2019? Come on! I was trying to use this tonight. I had my iPad facing north and it kept telling me that it was facing west. I ended up downloading another app to find out what two objects were. I will not download anything else from this developer!

Don’t waste your money

Use SkyView, which is free and much better.
Unfortunately you can’t get a refund with apps.
Buyer beware.
