Ratings & Reviews
Explore curated comets in Tonight and Guide Me. Improved ISS viewing windows and reminders. Faster compass response with calibration guidance. Crew rosters and biographies now load from saved data, with retry controls when needed. Satellite positions load from cache sooner, and background satellite refresh issues no longer trigger a global warning.
