    Where is it? App is nowhere as useful as with SkyView

  • Very confusing, no directions on how to use this app

    I got this hoping to point it at the satellites I see in the night sky and be able to find out what they are. It does not seem to work that way. Such a waste of money, I can’t get it to give me any information unless I already know what type of satellites I want to see??? Such a waste, it really should come with specific instructions on how to get it to work. Looking for a refund.👎

  • Missing a KEY feature

    As others have mentioned, it s a great app with lots of content, BUT it falls somewhat flat on a key scenario - AR view. As user, here’s what I expect. I tap AR view and all satellites that I could possibly see are vIsible / highlighted in AR view. Often I see something that might be a satellite and I want to see which satellite it is, quickly. Unfortunately, to check all satellites possible, I need to flip between like 8 different categories in AR view (communications, navigation, etc) making this scenario extremely painful. The app also hasn’t noticeably changed or improved in years, so 3 stars. But I’d love to give it 5 stars if it can handle this use case!

  • Good SkyView

    A decent app for free. I love it, can find stars, planets and constellations. Good app to locate space station an satellites and debris

  • Misses way too many.

    I spend about 2-3 nights per week outside for an hour or so every week and I love spotting satellites. I would say that around 90% of the satellites I spot, this app has no clue about. Yes, I scroll through all of the categories. Generally, the app is more frustrating than helpful.

  • Updates?

    I really like this app but will it ever be updated? Would love to see the Starlink satellites that are being deployed like you can see on other satellite viewing apps.

  • Cool app for a newbie to space junk

    Love this as a newbie to all that is above me in the night sky!

  • 4 Stars because missing the obvious

    Awesome UI building on SkyView features but why for the love of space are these obvious features missing, or worse, hidden and not easily intuited: Favorite prediction. When I open a favorite I don’t care about the blurb data. I already know that, hide that nonsense and give me the 24, 48, 72 hour orbits and predict if it’s going to be over head. Favorite alert. Just always alert me if a favorite is possibly overhead. Location of course is necessary, but cache my last location or home location in the case I choose only to share when using the app. Filter/Sort upcoming. Why is this not available? D’oh! Seriously, the list is hard to manage. Sort by visibility for example. Color code the value even, e.g., green == good, yellow==fair, &c. Alpha-sort. I’ll continue to use, and hope for UI tweaks. Or for the love of space hope for user guides online!

  • Did not track the Starlink satellites

    I had hoped this app would tell me when the Starlink satellites would go over but no.
