TRANSLATIONS:
PrediSat is ready for translations! Google Translate isn't quite good enough (I've tried), so I need human translators.

PROBLEMS OR SUGGESTIONS:
Please email me or submit the problem or suggestion at http://tracker.pilot51.com. Usually Google Play comments or even Android crash reports don't tell me everything I need to know to fix it and there is no way for me to reply to either to ask for more details.

[2013-05-10] A Google User: Great app for amateur astronomers It's an easy way to access Heavens Above from my phone. It's a simple app but I can't really think of any features I'd want added. I frequently use it to check for passes during my lunch break (second shift). I would recommend it for anyone wanting to check satellite passes while away from home. |
|
[2013-04-21] A Google User: Going pro Absolutely spot on guys. And has helped me debunk a YouTubers claim of passing off satellites as flying saucers. |
|
[2012-12-25] A Google User: Superb! Precisely what I wanted! Awesome app!! |
|
[2012-12-14] A Google User: from bad to worse i used to get the flares even though passes always get stuck at downloading window, after the latest update nothing works. |

[2012-11-08] A Google User: Iridium Flares and Satellites One of the only free apps for Iridium Flares. Only draw back is ads aren't in night vision. |
|
[2012-10-23] A Google User: Iridium flares now broken For the last 24 hours Iridium flares appear to have broken. I think perhaps HeavensAbove have changed the page? In any case I get a blank list. I have tried deleting app data, uninstalling the app, installing an older version and upgrading again. No joy. Real pity. I love this app! Fix soon please. |

[2012-06-15] A Google User: An app that works If I could have gave it more stars I would have. Its awonderful thing when an app works the way they say its suppose to. The night I downloaded this it said there would be a flare that night. I went out before the time they said it would happen. Then just at that time right where they said there it was. A bright flash then dimmed and tracked away. |
|
[2012-04-13] A Google User: Time zone Nice app, but time zone is off by one hour. Settings say -7 for Arizona and for Mountain, but it actually sets it one hour off. Confirmed this error with the correct times on the heavens-above web site. |
