2 ★ Useless ... (Developer should pay attention And Update features For Limited Users at least)

3 ★ Bad UI in new version. Also bugs

1 ★ Won't interface with my camera the other version was much better

1 ★ It doesn't work well for me. It loads but I can't tap on a satellite to get the info menu or orbit view or anything else. Tells me to go to menu to calibrate compass but i can't access the menu. Even when I do the shake thing it is still a horribly shaky screen. I like the idea of being able to point and identify something i see passing overhead but this program doesnt work well enough to make it worth using. Deleted from my phone.

1 ★ Apparently requires cell service. When used on a device without service but connected to wifi it consistently says to connect to a network. Manual position setting caused an exception error. Only loads one satellite.

1 ★ Used to be better, much better. I used to enjoy hopping on to this app when I had a clear night and spotted something in the sky. Alas, not any more. It takes so long to load that whatever you're looking at is long gone, if it does even load. I hope that the app can become useful again, it used to be great to show people the night sky.

1 ★ What is this? This is terrible, I cannot read anything! my icons are so tinny that I cannot read anything.

1 ★ I miss the old app because it worked. New app either waits loading data, or telling me to shake phone to calibrate (even though I have another app that calibrates compass). Bring back working app please. Hell i would pay for s working version

3 ★ Application seems stable and has an excellent satellite catalog. Unfortunately the data seems quite out of date, but only if accessed certain ways, until the app can agree with itself I won't trust it's information.

1 ★ What the heck bruh?! What did you guys do to the App? How can you seriously release somet that doesn't even work for so many people?! Old version was brilliant, fast and clear, easy to use. I don't mind changing the UI if you need to but, come on....at least make sure it works! And then to do nothing about it for over a year!! Please release the old version under a different name so we can still use it.

1 ★ It does not even work!!! I'm trying to look for the satellite train but it say senser error shacke the screen this is not good I don't recommend it. I hope they fix this

2 ★ This app used to work right. Whatever the upgrade was, the IIS is off the list and I am no longer be able to set my location. I would stand outside for 2 or 3 minutes shaking the phone gently (as it requests) only to never have it actually find my location. I'm giving this 2 stars to say "thanks" for how well this app served me in the past, but it's been de- installed now.

1 ★ Probably still a great app, but location acquisition takes forever. Actually it takes such a long time that I got to uninstaling it before it got the satellite.

1 ★ This app used to be great. The new interface is not my favorite but that can be overlooked as that's a matter of taste. However simply not working is not acceptable. It does not find DirecTV satellites anymore and that was my only use for it. Until this functionality is restored it will remain with one star (it would be zero if possible).

2 ★ App used to be great. Unfortunately, while the updated UI is... pretty, it's also a memory hog, bloated, filled with unnecessary BS, and lacking useful information. How about telling us info about the next overhead pass? Inclination, where it'll appear, how long it'll be visible for? Nope, you get a buggy, bloated, "pretty" UI instead. Goodbye.
