Comments on Heavens-Above Pro for Android

★★★★★ Fred Hauptstueck · Aug 7, 2020

Absolutely LOVE the app, especially the alert for ISS sightings! What I'm puzzled about are the other visible objects which move like satellites, but they do not appear on this app. Are military satellites hidden from tracking for obvious reasons? Potentially Space Force (insiders say we've been up there for 20+ yrs!)? Also, would love to see Iridium Flares and Comets identified ahead of time. If they are available in the Pro Version, I just haven't seen any yet. Very easy to use, night view looks great and is easy on the eyes! .

★★★★★ Paul Fisher · Jan 5, 2023

Really great data and mapping interface for those who want to watch for a specific satellite, or figure out what that flare in the evening sky was.

★★★★★ Am Ryddid · Mar 11, 2021

Warning: I believe my Google Calendar was compromised via the Notifications setting in Heavens-Above Pro.

★☆☆☆☆ Matthew Bordeaux · May 22, 2024

Notifications are terrible. Gives a notification for every amateur radio satellite, even the ones not selected, except for the most important one: the International Space Station. I have the settings configured correctly; it just doesn't send them. Really frustrating when I use this app to plan when to make radio contacts.

★☆☆☆☆ Mark Laytos · Nov 18, 2024

Wow, how the mighty have fallen. I have been a user of this app for years to make satellite contacts. It doesn't work any longer, especially on Android 14. Last update was in 2022. Switched to Look4Sat that actually works. FIX IT OR DON'T MAKE IT AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD! If you notice all the 4 or 5 atar reviews are so old. Why bother? You obviously have not been updating it.

★☆☆☆☆ Martin Takáč · Jun 5, 2022

The servers are down... Unable to download satellite data... Unusable...

★☆☆☆☆ Dwight Bird · Jun 15, 2021

Very disappointed for a paid app for night at observing. No info about planets or stars. No way to calibrate orientation or magnetic field. No way to compare brightness of stars to brightness of satellites to set threshold. I've stood here for 49 minutes, I haven't been able to find a single satellite that the app identified for me, and I've seen two or three satellites go over that were not displayed on the map. I think it's just painting pictures and scooting them across the sky.
