It does satellites
Like I said it does do satellites, however I am visually impaired and use the voice over facility that is built into Apple products and this application does not allow me to label the buttons like mini professionally created apps do and is built into I owe S. this is yet another example of developers that ironically cannot see past the end of their own noses and yet I is a blind person seem to see further weird eh?
Had this for two years!
I have given it 😍 5 stars many times. So please stop asking for more reviews.
I am in the UK with a Polish wife I get her programs HD all very good to exceptional using this app on both I phone and on I pad.
Now I have to give it 4 stars as I only use it to check other TVP channels but not so many are listed under TVP .

Great puts you straight on your satellite
Like the channel lists.
And using the camera it's like seeing the satellite. Not let me down once.
Very Useful
Best app on the market for setting up a dish, very straightforward to use.
Perfect for me.
This app does what I need perfectly. It gives me an accurate picture of the sky for viewing angles and a decent channel listing for decoding.
A good method
Easy to use in theory but it can be a bit touchy in practice but it is the best system I have found and in conjunction with a good signal meter does the job well.
Someone broken the app not working any more
Someone broken the app not working any more guess who is that?

Excellent app I use this for positioning my dish whilst camping and not let me down yet
Settings problem
A) Not clear if selector should be L or R to choose True/Magnetic
B) The Az/El does not update when changing the selector position. Usually have to reboot iphone to get it to change
Unintuitive
I installed it but couldn't really work out how to use it to realign my sky dish. It could do with some instructions certainly.
It might work if you persevere with it
