Fantastic! I worked on the Shuttle program that put the International Space Station in orbit and then for the past 13 years supporting Station before retiring earlier this year. The app gave me accurate information on where to look to acquire the station so I was able to watch it pass across W to NW even though it was at a low elevation relative to the passes that pass thru nadir from one side to the other. Especially great since ISS will be deorbited in another 6 years in 2030. Great app.

Excellent App for ISS viewing. I use this app all the time. Works perfect. Gives you an alert when the space station is going to be visible in your location. I highly recommend this app. Small amount of ads are just the right amount. This is one app I patronize the ads because it's so useful. Try it out. It may take a long time for the ISS to be visible in your location. Install it, set up notifications, and give it time.

A worthwhile app to have on your device. However, I came to rate this app because of an annoyance. Every time I go to record the sunset from the ISS, about 2 minutes into fullscreen mode, inevitably a banner pops up at the moment that the sun is just about to set asking me to review Rate this app. Well, that is a real crappy time to ask for a Rating. And the banner doesn't time out and there's no option to turn off the asking of a rating. There's one more thing. It doesn't always show a feed from the ISS. Sometimes it cuts to Nasa Channel, but it will give messages that the sun is about to set or rise in the ISS. Users should be able to pick between watching the ISS feed or Nasa Channel. All that being said, I do enjoy the app.
