Would you like your phone to alert you when the ISS, shuttle, or even spy sats are flying overhead? Simple! Satellite Flybys turns your phone into a full-featured satellite tracker with flyby alarms and more.

If you want to learn something about the satellites you are seeing instead of just getting a name and a number (what is an SL-16 R/B anyway?) this is the app that does that. For each satellite listed there is a description and a photo (when available). And our dataset is maintained by pros so we only track the most interesting of the 100's of visible satellites.

As an educational tool for casual sky watchers, Satellite Flybys beats the others hands down. And if you are an avid satellite spotter, this app is a good way to introduce others to your hobby. Also, unlike some of the other satellite spotting apps, the flyby predictions are stored so they are available offline. That's important if you go out to a nice dark sky area to view flybys and don't happen to have cell coverage there.

Please fix the app for Samsung Galaxy Nexus & ICS This app. does not work on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus & Ice Cream Sandwich. Opens up to a black screen with a grey box in the bottom left corner. It worked fine on the HTC Incredible.

What Programme force closes when location is entered. Gps doesn't work and always resets to new york on start. This was a good program.

Neat app, love the detail, notifications, and "brightness" dots. It should list more satellites though.

by Michael the 12/7/2011

Needs to be updated for larger phone screens.

Don't waste your money. Your better off using the web service

Awesome app

by Bo the 10/2/2011

Don't waste your money.... I have yet to find a satellite using this app. Not sure if database or location reference is corrupt but I've "missed" all the viewings the app has showed for multiple nights. However, each night I see multiple satellites go over that aren't shown in the app...these aren't faint passes, they are very obvious. Also, it has no sky view map to show the path through the sky. Waste of money & time...just use internet until app improved.

Works great. Fun to watch the ISS.

by Anonymous the 9/1/2011

Excellent App!! I like that when I look at the list of visible satellites, that the bigger the dot, the more visible or Brighter the satellite is. It's fun that when I am with my friends, I can drag them all outside and see a satellite (the reminder feature is handy too). This app is pretty easy to use. I like it!!!!
