About

Vision Satellites

Read full description

Vision Satellites brings Earth’s orbit into your space. Explore an interactive 3D globe surrounded by thousands of satellites orbiting Earth in real time. Every position is propagated from current orbital data, so what you see tracks reality as closely as possible — Starlink, OneWeb, the ISS, weather and Earth-observation satellites, rocket bodies, and more. With Ground View you can look up from your own location and see what is passing above you right now. And with built-in pass alerts you pick any place, choose a satellite, and get notified the moment it climbs high into your sky — search any city or use your current location, set how high it must rise, mute alerts when you want, and limit them to certain hours. Mark your favorites to keep them one tap away. Filter by satellite type, orbit, the geostationary television fleet, or just your favorites. Tap any satellite for its live details — altitude, speed, orbital period, inclination, ground point, and the next time it flies over you — and switch on an orbit path to see exactly where it is headed. Follow upcoming rocket launches from NASA, SpaceX and other providers, each with its rocket, launch site, schedule and a live countdown. Open a launch for the full briefing — and explore a detailed 3D model of the rocket you can spin, take full screen, or place in your room in AR. Home Screen and desktop widgets bring it all outside the app: your favorites with live position and next pass, what is overhead right now for a location you choose, or a single satellite of your choice. The app is made for anyone interested in spaceflight, satellite technology, astronomy, Earth observation, or beautiful spatial visualizations. Available for Apple Vision Pro, iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Features: * Interactive real-time 3D Earth with thousands of satellites * Immersive spatial experience on Apple Vision Pro * Ground View showing satellites above your current location * Pass alerts when a satellite flies high over any location * Favorites, plus filters by type, orbit, geostationary TV, and more * Per-satellite details: altitude, speed, period, inclination, ground point, next pass * Orbit path visualization * Upcoming rocket launches with live countdown, full details, and a 3D model of each rocket (viewable in AR) * Home Screen and desktop widgets: favorites, overhead now, and single satellite * Realistic SGP4 orbit propagation * Compatible with Apple Vision Pro, iOS, iPadOS, and macOS Vision Satellites makes the invisible visible: the orbital infrastructure that connects, observes, and supports our modern world.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Pitt State at Free against Vision Satellites's $1.99. Pitt State also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). Vision Satellites's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months) and device support (4 vs 2). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
