Heavens-Above Customer Insights

1. This app has a filter for hours... But will I get notified when the satellite is visible or just when it's overhead? Even in daylight? I'm not entirely sure which satellites it will notify either, or they expected magnitude, something the other app shows.

2. Absolutely wonderful, precise tool to see when and where anything in low Earth orbit is passing overhead, from the ISS and other space exploration craft, to Starlink satellites, to decades-old debris like rocket boosters.

3. Can this change? Also, can app use alarm clock instead of calendar for notifications? Overall though,, it's, a terrific app, and I thank you for it!This app is great, exceyfor the fact that you need a separate compass app to figure out where you are looking.

4. Your website is interesting tough, yet I colun't find info on passes and visibility from my configured location.This app is a handy tool.

5. But to add what mode the satellite is working (FM or ssb or whatever) and if it requires a CTCSS tone would increase the needed information of true satellite trackers as myself.

6. The only way I can make sure to not miss an event or ISS pass is to be constantly looking at the upcoming events and set a calendar reminder.

7. You can filter by minimum magnitude, show only visible passes, set parameters for what's defined as "visible" and more.

8. Also greedily they display a giant bright advertisement which blind you.Very good for tracking satellites.

9. But even satellites that are given a mag of 1.0 are very hard to see.This should be a fantastic app, it's certainly a great idea and they seem to have generally done a great job implementing it.

10. There's a few more tools on their website, but for a free app, this is better than I could ask for.I really enjoy this app as it can pretty much let me know when there will be something I want to see passing overhead.

11. Not 5 stars yet because Google Play Store opening over night mode blinded my night vision 3 times.
