User Reviews

Look4Sat offers an ad-free, visually appealing experience with useful features like custom TLE input and responsive developer support, but reviewers most often complain about instability, data loss after updates, usability quirks, device-specific issues, and occasional data accuracy problems. Improvements in reliability and cross-device behavior would help unlock its strong feature set.
Pros
  • Ad-free experience with no subscriptions.
  • Visually appealing interface and overall ease of use.
  • Supports custom TLE input for tracking satellites.
  • Developer is responsive and helpful.
Cons
  • App is glitchy and crashes frequently.
  • Updates erase saved satellites and settings or fail to display selected satellites.
  • UI/UX usability issues: difficult satellite selection, slow pass estimation, and conflicting time displays.
  • Device compatibility issues on some devices (e.g., Pixel 8 Pro; Samsung One UI) causing instability.
  • Data accuracy problems and incomplete satellite data (some satellites not found; keps data mix-ups).
