Good app but it is written for older versions of android. Hence does not run correctly on newer versions. Can not update the list of satellites to take into account the latest satellite launches. Needs an update to take into account the newer versions of android and have a way of updating the list of satellites.

Great app for ensuring good line of sight for a dish. Not 100% accurate but very close.

Worst application ever

I tried the free version. It seemed to work great, so I purchased the PRO Version. The PRO Version did not work correctly. The PRO appeared to function but displayed a message at the bottom of the screen that it said could not obtain a GPS fix, so I uninstalled it. This makes me wonder if the free version is actually working properly or not. This was on a Samsung Galaxy S7 with Android 6. If this is a bug in the version, or a conflict with the Android version, I would re-consider once fixed. Also, in both versions, the app doesn't seem to shut off properly when trying to exit, and I have to use the "close all recent apps" feature to ensure that it actually quit.

Not working on my acer liquid jade z. always saying it had stopped. Pls fix it

Just what I needed. My dish was knocked over and Tech support told me it would be a week before someone could come out. Downloaded multiple apps to try and get signal for Direct with no luck. 5 minutes with this one and service was restored! Easy for a non tech savvy person to use for a simple task.

The image on Nexus 5x is flipped upside down. That's due to g sensor of these phones. It will be the same with all Nexus phones after 5x. Need some workaround

Works great. Does exactly what it says it will. Works better than an inclinometer, and it's free. Thanks very much for developing this.

What great app, i was able to locate the exact branch of a tree blocking my satellite reception and remove it without cutting the whole top off the tree

pointing camera at optus d1 and dish was nearly horizontal . not right. tilted down till indicator was at 60 degrees and found it. .uninstalling now as I can't waste time like that. .

It works the best of all the apps I tried. I did have to do some Google work to find out which satellite I was looking for. The app doesn't help you with that. Just point it toward the sky, find your satellite, move until you find a clear shot. Awesome. Dish network, 61.5, 110, 119. (Fyi)

Grate app set my dish up in less than 10 min saved $100

Easy to use App. But text size of overlay (showing e.g. compass and elevation) should be bigger on Note 3. Adjustable text size would be even better. Also larger selection of colors for text would improve readability.

Great App, chose the wrong satellite at first but once I had the right one it was quick and simple.

A. G. u. Sep 22, 2015     

I could not understand how to use will you please to help

A. G. u. Apr 28, 2017     

Only thing that would make it better would be the ability to use the front facing camera.

A. G. u. Jul 14, 2016     

Cannot make heads or tails of it. No instructions on how to use it

A. G. u. Sep 7, 2016     

Works fine for me with a portable sat dish and traveling all over the US in an RV.

doesn't work camera display is turned sideways

A. G. u. Mar 29, 2017     

Why does it require access to my photos, storage, phone calls, etc.. OTT I think!

A. G. u. Oct 26, 2017     

Dont buy this. It will not show you anything at all.
