Simple and accurate
I like this app. You can enter your city to get local viewing times and it shows you forthcoming sightings. Far quicker than searching the web for the information.

Nice idea, doesn't update enough.
I can't believe I paid for an app that doesn't do anything. When I got it last week it had a few days of sighting information. It now has no information in it at all. Essentially it is an app that has zero information about anything. It is a rip off.

Concise and Precise!
A great App!
All the information you need to spot the ISS set out in an excellent format.
This is now my preferred ISS App.

This does everything I want it to do except bring the ISS overhead when the sky is clear. Thanks

Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no it's the ISS
I've used this app to watch out for the ISS passing overhead.
If it's a cloudless dusk or evening you get a really great view of it silently speeding overhead! Amazing to think while the astronauts are looking down on Australia on their orbit, we're looking up at them!
Would be the same in the early am, but I'm not a morning person! Great to know what it is you are looking at and more importantly when to look!!
