So here's my take on Orbitrack. I've tested a bunch of space and astronomy apps, and this one's pretty solid. The AR feature is the real standout - being able to literally point your phone at the sky and see the satellites is just super cool. The graphics and details are great too. But it's not without its issues - the learning curve is a bit steep, and the ads can get old fast. Overall though, I'd say it's a nice little app for space fans.

Description

Been using Orbitrack for a couple months now. It’s basically an AR satellite tracker and space sim app. Pretty cool if you’re into that kind of thing. You can see thousands of satellites, including the ISS and Starlink, and there’s even a mode that uses your phone’s GPS and sensors to show you where they are in the sky. The graphics are really detailed too – you can see atmospheric effects and city lights at night. It takes some getting used to but it’s a fun way to learn more about what’s going on up there. Look, if you’re into space and satellites, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the ads can get annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does a solid job. Worth checking out.

Basically just eye candy for looking at satellites. For example, doesn't show a list of passes. Requires you to purchase on a per-device basis. Boo!
