No longer working. Used to be excellent app. Not working since about a month ago. Delivers error msg 'Can't download the data for one flare' then closes. Error msg persists on screen after app has closed.

The data feed seems incompatible It would appear that the data source used for the app is no longer compatible with the application - or his login is not valid. The author needs to correct this. Could be interesting if this was sorted out; I have successfully used the heavens-above website.

Keeps reminding me the scan location isn't set, but it is. Annoying reminders of this all day long, even after I've killed the app. Had to uninstall.

Problematic at best... The biggest issue(s) on my D1: 1) keeps telling me that it can't load track info with error popups that keep popping up even if I dismiss the app! 2) WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT USE THE GPS location!!!! It never gets a good position (only uses network) unless wifi is being used... always resorts to network location even when GPS is turned on!!! If this worked BETTER it'd be about as perfect as you could imagine.

Excellent front end for the data at the Heavens Above website! Always good for big "Oooo"with friends.

Recent update made brightness too dim.

Uninstall. Incredibly annoying repeated unnecessary and unwelcome notifications to set location. What a PITA.

by Valentin the 2/15/2011

It can be a great ap. But it lack refresh after change settings. Also after the new update you MUST set the timezones, or else it will not work.

Can't turn off notifications to set location even though location set
