Hi Jim et al, One thing that I would like to see is a preference that allowed me to choose the default settings for pass calculations. For example, the...
It's an interesting question that I never thought about. I guess I pretty much assumed that eventually the app would close itself after you loaded enough...
When I was playing around with seeing if settings would 'stick' after a forced reboot, I discovered something. If you go into 'global' preferences and delete a...
I asked about lunar transits at one point, but was told due to calculations, it probably wouldn't be possible or accurate. I noticed in the pass graphic for...
Sigh. Writing software would be great if there were just no users to report problems... :-) I'm gonna file that one under "bug that won't cause a new release...
Yeah, lunar and solar transit searching is pretty much the next thing on my own personal "want" list. Along with net time synchronization (my android device's...
Thanks and well done, Jim, on the newest update! As far as I can see, it's passed with flying colors and now the preferences and data are retained after...
I second that. I was messing around with the app earlier, forgot I set an alarm. A little around 9:15, I heard what I used to use for texts, thinking "I...
Amazing what you can find when you actually look at something. I noticed the Status[+] on some of the satellites today. In the detail for the satellite, a...
Hi Gene, Well, it's been available for a few weeks at www.pocketsat.com. I haven;t published it to the Android Market yet because, in all honesty, I wasn't...
Hi Roger, The "status" field was necessary for Iridium flare prediction: while you can always tell where a satellite is going to be just from the TLE data, you...
... Nope - he's right: it hangs. On Iridium 8. Because of one of those "I can't beleive I wrote that" stupid bugs when it scans the satellite name for a...
So, it's not a number value that's causing it to hang though, right? I loaded a similar catalog in the summer, but I may not have included iridium in it. I...
... You wouldn't be able to tell where it hung by looking at the screen. It doesn't necessarily display EVERYTHING that's being loaded. While there isn't a...
... True, but from the end-user point of view, if I see dozens of satellite names zipping through the load process and all of a sudden it appears to hang at...
AO-51 shouldn't be working. I mean, two of its six battery cells are shorted. It should be dead. INSTEAD, it has been pumping out more than 800mW the past two...
... Kinda reminds me of IUE. When I was at the Space Telescope Institute in the late 80's we always got a kick out of the fact that it was still around after...
Just thought I'd mention that I've _almost_ got PocketSat3 v3.6 for both iOS and Android ready to go. I suppose the changes aren't all THAT exciting, as these...
I tried to add my Space Track account. Can an account that requires a password not be used? I would love to see the planets displayed on the sky view screen....
I've been using Pocketsat for a few years on a Palm PDA to track amateur radio satellites. I recently purchased an iPhone and installed Pocketsat 3. So far,...
Hello Group: Are "Pass Alerts" available in the Lite Edition? If so, any assistance would be great. Read the documentation and no help. Thinking Pass Alerts...
In the 'pass' screen, do you see a little alarm clock on the detail line all the way at the left? if so, tap there, it should pull up the alarm interface. ...
Hi Roger: Yes, I had read the documentation concerning the clock icon on the pass screen but none exists. Are you running the Lite Edition? Scott ... From:...
No, I don't have the lite version. I wasn't sure if it was available or not. The icon is kind of faded on my version, but the interface shows up if you tap...
