Description
People across the world have been spotting an amazing line of bright moving lights in their night sky. These are Starlink satellites launched by SpaceX, and they look like a "train" of moving lights since 60 satellites are launched together at a time.
Find out when you can see this phenomenon at your location!
This app is the official mobile version of the findstarlink.com website, which has been successfully serving Starlink predictions to people since May 2019 (when Starlink first launched). The findstarlink.com website has been mentioned on several press outlets like Yahoo! News, WIRED.it, and Florida Today, and receives daily user confirmations of successful Starlink sightings. This app additionally lets you set reminders, and works offline.
Designed to be simple and easy to use. First, please select your nearest city (or coordinates), and click on 'Find Visible Times'. The app will list the times when you can see Starlink. You can also click 'Remind me' next to any timing, to get a reminder 30 minutes before Starlink will be visible at your location. A 'Live Map' lets you track where Starlink is currently in the world.
Please feel free to email me at dev@cmdr2.org if you have any questions or problems, and I can try to help.

Ratings and Reviews
perfect
I was gonna say that it didn’t show, until I realized that it’s just bc it’s a low chain, I was able to see it the next night and all was well. Perfect app and very, VERY useful if you want to see this once in a day opportunity!
Starlink tracker
When I tap live view, multitasking window comes up, not what I want, is their any way to fix this?
No show?
So sighting for my area tonight, 8:59, SW to NE, 6 minutes, 11 degrees to 53 degrees to 12 degrees. Perfect clear sky, perfect sight lines, no Skylink train. ??? I have a screen cap of the app showing our timing.
Update: I received a message from the developer, he’s trying his best. Still haven’t seen any satellites, but I’m going to keep,trying.
Developer Response ,
Hi, sorry about that. I'm trying my best to keep the predictions accurate, but the company that owns these satellites is often turning them and preventing them from being seen: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-52391758 . I'm working on predicting when they'll rotate these satellites, so that I can avoid showing those timings. But since I don't work for the company, I'm making the best educated guesses I can.
The predictions on this app are the same as any other satellite tracking site.
