What is Orbitrack? Description of Orbitrack

Orbitrack is a brand-new, Augmented-and-Virtual-Reality satellite tracker and spaceflight simulator! It's your pocket guide to the thousands of spacecraft in orbit around our home planet.

1) More than 5000 spacecraft, including all active satellites, classified military satellites, the International Space Station, and SpaceX's Starlink communication satellites.

2) Rich new graphics, rewritten using Apple's Metal graphics API, show atmospheric effects, city lights on Earth’s night side, and highly-detailed 3D satellite models.

3) Voice-controlled Virtual Reality mode that works with any smartphone VR viewer. iPhone only.

4) A true "augmented reality" mode that helps you find satellites in the sky by blending the sky chart with video from your phone's camera. Works with Orbit and Satellite views too!

5) Radio frequency data for amateur radio satellites.

6) Updated descriptions for hundreds of spacecraft. Every satellite now has a description from n2yo.com.

7) Supports the latest Apple hardware and software: iPhone 13, iPad Pro, and iOS 15. Check the Mac App Store for our MacOS version!

8) Requires at least iPhone 6 or iPad Air with 64-bit processor and iOS 12 or later.

9) New sound effects and ambient background music.

10) New Time Flow controls let you easily set the date and time, and animate the view.

If you're new to Orbitrack, here's what it can do:

• Track thousands of satellites. Orbitrack will tell you when spacecraft pass overhead, show you where to find them in the sky, and let you track them across the planet.

• Teach you about the International Space Station, Starlink, and hundreds of other satellites in orbit, with comprehensive mission descriptions.

• Show the view from any satellite, and see the Earth from orbit just as the “bird” sees it! Orbitrack includes detailed 3D models for dozens of satellites – see them up close from any angle!

• Stay on top of the space race. Orbitrack updates its satellite data from n2yo.com and celestrak.com every hour. When new spacecraft are launched, maneuver into new orbits, or fall back into the atmosphere, Orbitrack shows you what’s happening up there, right now.

Orbitrack isn’t just powerful – it’s incredibly easy to use! You don’t need an aerospace degree to become an expert satellite tracker. Orbitrack puts advanced capabilities at your fingertips, with the same intuitive touch interface you use every day.

The new VR mode is an out-of-this-world experience. Become an astronaut without ever leaving Planet Earth!

And if that’s not enough, Orbitrack includes detailed, built-in Help – and expert, responsive technical support.

Orbitrack Pros

BEAUTIFUL!I rarely write reviews. An hour ago, i received what I though was a spam email and deleted it without opening it. Something caught my eye about it and I recovered it and realized it was a satellite tracking app that had no in app purchases, and was good across all of my devices for one price. AMAZING app! Worth twice the price! GOOD JOB! Thanks!.Mr5150Version: 2.5.3

Almost there.My previous reviews highlighted issues with the some of the earlier versions. I’m pleased to see pretty much all those issues have been resolved. But the data base is so slow to display recent launches, for example if you want to track the Starlink satellite trains, your not going to see them here until about a week after launch. Heavensabove.com will tell you where and when to look before they have even left the ground. If Chris can do it, so can Orbitrack! I’d still like to see the inclusion of a Telrad field of view and constellation names though..Deckr8Version: 2.5.2

Orbitrack Cons

Accelerometer fails to trackWhat a joke. I wanted to track stars in the sky as I moved my iPhone XS pointed up and nothing moved unless I repeatedly force closed this app. Don’t even bother with this. Uninstalled..U.S. CitizenVersion: 2.4.1

Bright Rocket Body Satellites Not Included. Why?Nov. 2018, Im still very disappointed, even with the update! But I’m increasing my rating from one to two, because the developer responded to my previous review and included several satellites . But still, I do not like this Orbitracker app because it does not include space “debris.” The developer said to me in a written communication that a majority of the satellites visible to the naked eye are not included because they have finished their active mission and are now space “debris”_ But The only reason I bought this Orbitrack app is for the large database and all the “brights” are included, satellites so big and so close to earth they are naked eye visible! I’m sorry to say Orbitacker does not appreciates rocket bodies as I do. Sept. 2018 old review.... Very disappointed, all the hype about all the Satellites included, was hype and not accurate. I found this out immediately. , , The majority of bright Sats visible to the naked eye, are mysteriously not even in the Orbitrack database because they are space debris, but I like my satellites like My girlfriends, they must catch my eye and it is ok if a little on the trashy side. A Satellites inclination will tell you how far North it goes. For example, 745 X 746; 52. is Satellite that 745 KM above earth at perigee and 52 degrees latitude when turns and goes other way, never flying over 53 Latitude. For example; Breeze M (28116), Atlas Cen (38770), ARGOS (25634), Each Sat has its’ own specific number, the name changes, just like you might call a Toyota Tundra a pickup or a truck or a 4x4, but the license plate number never changes. When search for Satellites, search by number, but do not search in Orbitrack because bright Sats are only there in the marketing hype! I bought the Orbitack app specifically for watching the naked eye Sats and now I want my money back so I can keep hunting for an Satellite app..DaveWhiteChicoCaVersion: 2.1
