TRANSLATIONS:
PrediSat is ready for translations! Google Translate isn't quite good enough (I tried and was told to never do it again), so I need human translators.
If you would like to help, translation is crowdsourced at http://getlocalization.com/predisat
If for any reason you can't or don't want to use Get Localization, you can always email me.

POS does not work. Galaxy Note 2 on Verizon Developer: it finds your location but when selecting passes or flares it crashes. Also avast security warns it as a privacy risk.

Along with another space app I have, this helps me predict that right moment to pause the tv and run outside... or to wake up extra early to run out with the dog to see the ISS... I heart this app!

Very useful tool for quick & easy access to Satpass & Iridium Flare data (Ver 1.0.5.) FC bug now fixed.

T70%
by T####:

Data fetched is accurate and it shows a lists of upcoming flares that is easy to look at. The minimal GUI makes it a very light weight app and hence minimal memory usage. Please keep it that way!

P70%
by P####:

It's an easy way to access Heavens Above from my phone. It's a simple app but I can't really think of any features I'd want added. I frequently use it to check for passes during my lunch break (second shift). I would recommend it for anyone wanting to check satellite passes while away from home.

One of the only free apps for Iridium Flares. Only draw back is ads aren't in night vision.

T70%
by T####:

For the last 24 hours Iridium flares appear to have broken. I think perhaps HeavensAbove have changed the page? In any case I get a blank list. I have tried deleting app data, uninstalling the app, installing an older version and upgrading again. No joy. Real pity. I love this app! Fix soon please.

i used to get the flares even though passes always get stuck at downloading window, after the latest update nothing works.

Awesome and accurate!!

T70%
by T####:

If I could have gave it more stars I would have. Its awonderful thing when an app works the way they say its suppose to. The night I downloaded this it said there would be a flare that night. I went out before the time they said it would happen. Then just at that time right where they said there it was. A bright flash then dimmed and tracked away.
