    False notifications for ISS and Starlink. When I tap on them, the chart loads with the orbit and immediately disappears and no passes can be found in the list. No real notifications either. I can see the ISS passing, yet no alerts are shown before or during the pass.

    I really enjoy this app as it can pretty much let me know when there will be something I want to see passing overhead. However I have a few questions. 1. Why in the list of nightly events are there hardly ever anything listed between the hours of midnight and 4am. 2. I live outside of our city and once my eyes are accustomed to the dark I can see quite a bit. But even satellites that are given a mag of 1.0 are very hard to see.

    This is very interesting app. The notifications are an extra bonus!

    Best app I've found to track and watch moving satellites and planets so far.
