## Description

BlipSat turns your satellite communicator into a two-way information terminal.
Out of cell range on a ZOLEO or Garmin inReach? Send a short command and get the
answer back — over the Iridium satellite network. No cell signal, no Wi-Fi
required in the field.

WHAT YOU CAN ASK

- Aviation weather: METAR and TAF reports, with an optional plain-English decode,
  plus D-ATIS at supported airports.
- Weather radar: request a radar picture for an airport or your current position;
  the app renders a radar grid over an offline airport map, including a forward
  "corridor" aligned to your direction of travel.
- Sports scores: live and final scores for MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL.
- Stock quotes: quick prices on the symbols you follow.
- Web search: ask a question in plain language and get a concise, AI-assisted
  answer.

HOW IT WORKS

When you have an internet connection, the app sends your request directly to the
BlipSat service and shows the reply instantly. When you're off the grid, the same
request goes out over your satellite communicator via Bluetooth, and the reply
comes back the same way — automatically. Long answers are split to fit your
device's per-message limit, so nothing gets cut off.

BUILT FOR THE FIELD

- Works with ZOLEO and Garmin inReach satellite communicators.
- Automatic path selection: internet when available, satellite when it isn't.
- On-device airport map and radar rendering — no data connection needed to draw it.
- A clean message history so you can review every request and reply.
- Readable in the cockpit or the backcountry, with adjustable text size.

WHO IT'S FOR

Pilots, backcountry travelers, boaters, and anyone who ventures beyond cellular
coverage and still wants weather, radar, scores, and answers on demand.

SUBSCRIPTION

BlipSat is a subscription service. Create your account and manage your plan at
blipsat.com. The app itself is used to send commands and read replies; there is no
in-app purchase.

IMPORTANT — SUPPLEMENTAL USE ONLY

BlipSat is an informational aid and is NOT a certified source for flight planning
or navigation. Do not rely on it as a primary source of aviation weather or for
navigation. Always consult official, authoritative sources and use appropriate
certified equipment for safety-of-flight and navigation decisions.
