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
Nice
Hey pretty nice app you have made there
Need some things fix though
Exiting the app and launching again re-entering location info sometime it’s showing past dates also with reminder buttons too
Need a little more detail info so we can find out exactly where we can see them!
I cross verify the specified date from other websites as well but they are saying “no satellites will be shown”
And app is saying “Starlink old” | “BRIGHT”| will be visible.
I’ll happy to help if you need anything from me.
Thank you so much.
Developer Response ,
Hi Nïnad, thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it. :)
The results from 1 day in the past are shown since some people see the satellites first, and then want to confirm what they saw. I'll think about how to improve that section to make it clearer, maybe with a "show past timings" button. Thanks!
Could you please tell me what additional information you'd like about the satellite timing? Happy to improve this further, I agree this can be even better!
I cannot talk about other websites, but the timings here match Heavens Above (which is the most reputed satellite tracking site used by astronomers). There are 6 different Starlink groups in orbit right now. Starlink path changes every day, so I'm not sure if the other websites are keeping up to date. This app fetches new data every 6 hours and crowd-sources user reports to confirm the data.
Old satellites can be bright, if their distance and sunlight reflection is strong. Thanks again for the feedback, it helps improve things. If you'd like, we can continue talking on dev@cmdr2.org. Cheers!
Not helpful
Even tho the app says bright never was able to spot starlink. I have tried literallymore than 10 times!
Work!
I love it
