Find Starlink Satellites

The app glitches. It closes for no reason and when you scroll down or try to go back to the main page all the script freaks out and shakes. Times are also inaccurate by 15-20 minutes.

App isn't really useful for me. Those of you giving low ratings because the sats aren't very visible to you, it's not the fault of the app that you can't see them. If you live where there is too much light polution that will affect your ability to see them for starters, they are not bright. Due to complaints from the astro community Starlink have taken actions to tune down their reflectivity. I just look up for a bit and I find them but they are dim.

The app improved quite a lot in the recently updates. All the bad reviews were certainly for the old version. Thank you and keep doing a great job! It's a shame that most of bad reviews will be around and don't reflect the true about the app. Maybe lunch the same app with another name so you can have a clean record.

constantly freezes, everytime I use it and kicks me out. very buggy app. Could be great w/ a lot of potential if these issues were resolved- android

Stay away. I am a navigator so it's easy for my to figure out the cardinal points and measure the elevation from the horizon in degrees, I never was able to see any satelites on any of the positions this app states, it doenst work. This is a theft!

Took a few tries but finally seen Starlink. This app gave the exact time to look two nights in a row. The (new) BRIGHT is what to look for. Not as bright as the first satellites but definitely visible. Love this app!

Works as described! Give extra time cause not perfect. We were able to see it using this app. Didn't find our town but did have the closest city. Keep your eyes on the sky. I have already recommended this app to my friends and family! Thanks for putting this out there for me to use!

Useful information, helped me see the satellite train. Unfortunately, the app only works for approx half a minute, then it freezes or crashes. It's not a phone performance problem, as I have a OnePlus 7t Pro...

EDIT: seems to work now, although a little slow. changing score... Although I have yet to see a 'train'. (I swear I changed this review once already!) ... Original Review: Doesn't work for me (Samsung S8+). Just says '"connection problem". Tried reinstalling; all other apps work fine.

Does not use my location, it uses the coordinates of the city that is listed under 'By Name'. Yes, I have allowed it access to my location. Also, it's really tedious looking for a city in the long long list. Same on webpage.

I spotted what I think was Starlink-60 (G4-34) (new), DIM (5.6) for 3 mins. It was most definitely not dim and moved so fast I couldn't call my mom out of the house in time to see it too. Moved across the sky much faster than 3 minutes. I came inside to see if I could find out what I saw and stumbled across this app. Downloading to see if I can't spot more instances!

I've been seeing these chains of satellites for months now and finally decided to research their flyover and found this App. Thank you so much!!!! I appreciate you!!!! In these times its amazing to see the technology in satellites. Elon musk is an amazing man. You are amazing as well for this free awesome app. Elon for POTUS 2028. Bought you 4 coffees 😁

I'd really love to give this 5 stars because I love spotting starlink trains, but since downloading, I have not seen one single starlink much less a train 😔 i check the app literally every evening and when I'm lucky enough to have a batch of starlinks predicted to fly right over my location, even on a perfectly clear night there is absolutely nothing. It's quite disappointing! I'd love to have this app work! I'll happily change to 5 stars if it's fixed! 👍Updating to 5 stars, thanks dev!

The app works fine for me, so far, on Android 6, ASUS Zenfone Selfie. I managed to see the 6,7 "trains" on April 24, as announced, and it was great! 😁👌 The poor visibility ones... not really. I think I briefly saw another train tonight, but I'm not 100% sure. I wish there were tooltips for all the details that are not obvious (even "max"), and maybe a recommendation for a good compass app.

Sorry, to give one star but trying to view 10 minutes either side of the predictions have yielded nothing in both Portugal on the coast of the North Atlantic and for my family who live in the middle of nowhere and can see plenty of satellites. Clear nights, stars in the sky, yet the scheduled times seem to be wrong. App looks lovely but doesn't seem to be on point. Map also doesn't seem to tie in with sighting times either. Despite there being only one ISS, its trackers always work. I give up.

I'm pleasantly happy with this rather basic app. Really looking forward to seeing how the app develops in future versions. A bit niggling being in NZ as we are right where the map sort of breaks. Some further explanations or diagrams on how to interpret the angles that are given in your results would be helpful for beginners. This is still the app I will use for Starlink over other apps with too many other features. Good luck & clear skies to all ;)

So, after a few attempts I finally saw one. By one, I mean, one measly satellite, not a train of them like all these apps make it seem. It's very tiny and elusive, like trying to spot Mercury and it zips by fast. If it's not a completely dark and clear night, you'll easily miss it. Even with perfect conditions, it's difficult to spot. Nothing at all like the videos you see.
