I have trouble using the iss app, when I go to see when sightings are due it crashes and goes back to app icon on my iPhone

By Ian 1 year ago

Settings doesn't respond accurately to my changes in notifications since the last update. Although I've set it to show "only visible passes" I occasionally get notification of ISS fly overs during the daytime. Additionally, if there are no current sightings, and the next ones are 3 weeks in the future, it used to give a message about that. But now the screen is just dark (except for those occasional daytime pass notifications) Here are my settings: ISS -- on; Show notifications -- on; Min elevation -- 25; Threshold mag -- 0; Only visible passes -- on; Min Quality -- on

Common dislikes about ISS Detector app

- No “refresh” button on the iPhone version or a way to tell when the Kep data was last updated.

- Location issue.

- Orange bar that tells me the weather information cannot be loaded.

- No setting for planet alert.
