Comments on Satellite Pointer for Android

★★★★★ Anjula Jayamal Kodithiuwakku · May 12, 2024

Good application for find sat alight location. I used it cought FreeSat signal

★★★★★ Mark · Dec 5, 2024

Best sat finder app ever. It makes the process a breeze. Don't go buy expensive signal device just signup the pro version.

★★★★★ Satish Rao · Jun 3, 2025

Works very well. I could see most satellites I wished to point my dish towards.

★★★★★ Jagath Kularatne · Jun 11, 2025

Excellent app. I managed to point my dish antennas very quickly. I bought the full version. Really worth. Well done!!! After I pay and purchased they dump ads on my app. Do not buy it! Anyway you have to watch ads. I manged to restore my purchase and managed stop ads.

★☆☆☆☆ Irfan Malek · Jul 29, 2024

Worst app, you can't set without 330Rs subscription.

★★☆☆☆ Jim Shepherd · Sep 21, 2024

It goes like this. You hold your phone up to locate satellites. You spot them. You set your dish. You check again only to find they're no there they've moved 15-20° recheck there in a different location again.

★★☆☆☆ Aigar · Feb 15, 2025

Disappointed. The app looks great, but I couldn’t even try basic features like dish alignment without paying $4.99 to "unlock" them. No trial, no way to see if it even works before paying. I was excited to use this, but that excitement faded fast. It’s a shame because it seems well-made, but locking essential features right away makes it hard to trust. At best, it’s only good for locating satellites.
