pxSatelliteTracking App Reviews

Might be my fault but I have no luck with this app ... Sadly. I have tried all I can

I cant figure out how to add satellites to track.

I never get it open... App kept crashing. Ill try later but other reviews arent promising....

For those who find this app too difficult to use, you probably dont need the app or dont have a use for it. Those who do have a use for this app (other than just wanting to know whats above you), youll probably know how to figure it out. This app is great for amateur radio operators who want a good way to track the location of objects like GOES, POES, OSCAR, and many other radio-enabled satellites including the ISS and Soyuz. You can manually enter individual satellites, insert URLs to download TLE telemetries, or use the preinstalled TLEs to track objects. Its never been so easy for me to track my antennae and follow a target!

I have been predicting satellite passes since 1999. This app was hard to figure out. Relatively easy to find the features and set them up. Harder to save my changes into the app. So far, it is unclear why I am not seeing passes for all the satellites I have loaded.

... After 10 minutes of nothing but frustration. The developer should have gotten some user feedback (apart from his/her own) before publishing this thing. No clue how to get the view of earth thats shown on the App Store preview. Also needs some spell checking - that must be embarrassing.

I open it and all there is is a circle with lines thru it. Theres nothing about satellites in here.

Fix these issues & add these feature to gain more stars. World map no longer visible in app on iPhone 6 Plus. Even after deleting whole app and re-downloading from App Store. Needs to utilize built in compass, accelerometer, and GPS. Not easy to switch viewing modes. Needs a button instead of having to rotate iPhone. Needs to show more info on each satellite. Such as uplink and downlink frequencies for ham radio satellites. Should have option to show daylight and night areas on map. Needs to be able to switch between 12 & 24 hour clock modes. Not easy to tell when a satellite will next be passing my location. Needs to utilize accelerometer for augmented reality view.

April 7, 2015 Finally, app was updated and works perfectly on my iPhone 6+. Now, I can give it the same review as I would have pre-iPhone 6 and iOS 8. Love it. Below was review from December 12, 2014 that caused a 2 star review I used to use this app all the time. Now that I upgraded to iPhone 6+, the maps do not display. You get tracks snd satellites but no map.

The display tracj button does not work and the menu button just displays a white stripe on the left side of the screen. Using an iPad with OS 8.1.
