SpaceStationAR2.32.6 - App Store

SpaceStationAR is an augmented reality (AR) application that simulates the visibility of satellites in the night sky. With SpaceStationAR, you can easily spot the brilliant International Space Station, spectacular Starlink Trains, and various satellites at the forefront of space exploration with your own eyes!

As your iPhone or iPad camera captures the scenery around you, SpaceStationAR overlays passes of the International Space Station, the Starlink Train (a group of Starlink satellites), and the Chinese Space Station onto the actual scenery. You can also use the app to find bright stars, galaxies, spacecrafts like Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, and even see the direction of major cities beyond the ground. SpaceStationAR also indicates the positions of geostationary satellites, making it a valuable tool for antenna installation. It can even forecast potential atmospheric re-entries of satellites.

You can easily access satellite orbits on maps and celestial charts in addition to the AR views.
The "Calendar" tab displays events like upcoming satellite passes and rocket launches within the next two weeks. You can choose a pass from the list and simulate it in AR.

SpaceStationAR also comes with an Apple Watch app and a "Today" widget. If you have a compatible device, you can conveniently check a simplified satellite forecast list without needing to open the main app.

List of Features

* AR simulation of satellite passes overlaid on real landscapes
* Real-time tracking of passing satellites (Exclusive to the paid version)
* Display of stars, galaxies, black holes, planetary probes, satellites, and world cities in AR (Visibility can be customized by type)
* Visualization of satellite passes on maps and celestial charts (Celestial chart feature is available in the paid version)
* Presentation of satellite orbits and current locations on a global map
* Calendar listing satellite passes within the next two weeks
* Support for newly launched satellites
* Turn on "Night Observation Mode" to switch AR and the celestial chart to a red-and-black color scheme, helping your eyes stay adapted to the dark (Night Observation Mode is available in the paid version)
* Offline app usage
* Forecasts potential atmospheric re-entries of satellites (currently in beta)
* Satellite pass notifications: Set notification times from 15 minutes to 6 hours before the event for accurate alerts. (Please allow background location updates for precise notifications. Disabling this feature may lead to inaccurate notifications when traveling long distances with the app closed.)

The LITE version of the app restricts AR mode display to 30 minutes before satellite passes and does not provide real-time AR functionality. Additionally, advertisements will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Version History - Fixed an issue where tapping celestial object icons in the AR view did not display their information correctly.
- Fixed an issue where celestial object details appeared in the wrong position in landscape orientation.
- Fixed an issue where an arrow appeared in an unexpected position at startup. 2.32.6 Sep 12 - Fixed an issue where orbit calculations for certain satellites and observation locations did not work correctly. 2.32.5 Aug 25 - Fixed an issue where the title could be cut off when launching the app in landscape orientation.
- Fixed minor bugs. 2.32.4 Aug 6 - Fixed an issue where orbit calculations could fail to complete under certain conditions. 2.32.3 Jul 7 - Fixed an issue where the AR screen was not displayed correctly in landscape orientation.
- Fixed an issue where the horizon line could be cut off on wide screens.
- Fixed an issue where the icon for switching between Night Observation mode and normal mode was not displayed in the correct position. 2.32.2 May 26 - Fixed an issue where selecting a satellite pass on the Calendar screen could occasionally cause a crash. 2.32.1 May 25 - Fixed an issue in Live mode on the Map tab where the loading icon could remain visible even after the orbit had finished loading.
- Improved the app overall for better stability and performance. 2.32 May 23 - Fixed an issue that could cause a crash when displaying satellite launch information on the Calendar screen. 2.31.2 May 21 - Fixed an issue where some late-night satellite passes could appear in notifications but not in Calendar. 2.31.1 May 8 - Added support for screen rotation, so you can now use the app in landscape orientation.
- Fixed minor bugs and made performance improvements. 2.31 May 1 - Fixed an issue where the app could crash at launch on some OS versions. 2.30.1 Mar 11 - [PRO-only feature] Added Night Observation Mode, which changes the display colors to black and red. During nighttime observation, seeing bright light can quickly reset your eyes' dark adaptation. When this mode is selected, the AR view and sky chart switch to a red-based color scheme that helps preserve dark adaptation.
- Added satellite launch schedules to the Calendar screen. When new launch or orbit insertion schedules are announced, they are shown in Calendar with a rocket icon.
- Fixed an issue on some devices where opening satellite pass details from the Calendar screen could show a blank white screen.
- Improved stability and performance. 2.30 Mar 5 - Added support for Portuguese (Brazil).
- Fixed incomplete translations in some languages. 2.28.2 10/07/2025 - Added Italian translation.

- Made minor layout adjustments. 2.27.3 09/24/2025 - When opening the list of satellite atmospheric reentry predictions, it now automatically scrolls to today or the nearest upcoming date.
- Reduced data usage. 2.27.2 09/11/2025 Performance improvements 2.27.1 09/01/2025 - Added a mode to the "Calendar" tab that displays a list of predicted satellite reentries.
Enable this feature by checking "Reentry Predictions" in the settings.
- Improved performance of the orbit data update process. 2.27 08/26/2025 - Reduced data usage and improved performance.
- Made minor layout adjustments. 2.26.2 07/16/2025 Fixed a crash that could occur under certain conditions. 2.26.1 07/09/2025 * Fixed an issue where the date text appeared too small on the calendar screen in certain environments.
