Other platforms
The NASA App is an information-based application that helps users discover NASA's latest images, videos, mission information, news, features stories, and even NASA featured content.
I love using this app with the kids. They get so amazed at just how much is out there. Not to mention the technology it takes for us to see it.
The ISS Detector is a free application for Android and iOs devices developed by RunaR. The App allows the users to track ham and weather satellites, including the radio frequencies and Doppler shifts for most satellites.

Happy to see this at the top solution of this page because this is the one I'm using on my satellite dish at home. Now my kids are happy because they can watch cable without interruption on our end. More

This is an interesting app. I would try it at least once.
GoSatWatch Satellite Tracking is an application for iOs devices for real-time tracking of satellites. It is offered and developed by GoSoftWorks Development Co. and is compatible with iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad, with iOs 9.3 and up.

There needs to be an option to find passes at all times (24hr). This is necessary for Amateur Radio Sats (HAM) (and also for those who like to find ISS via telescope in daylight). So far as I can tell, only the Satellite Radio (Sirius, XM) sats show up during daylight. More

@/brittany is right. I was confused if what is wrong to my tracker but then I tried finding satellites during daytime and I see the differense. Well I suggest to the devs to make the tracking at night as strong as tracking at day. Great sat finder app tho. More
Satellite Pointer is a free application for iOs and Android devices offered and developed by TouchDown Apps. It is capable of locating satellites by its augmented reality mode and reading vital informations in satellite installation.
by Carl Ferguson
I tried using Satellite Pointer, but unfortunately it didn't work very well for me. Where I'm located, there are a lot of obstructions that make it difficult to aim a dish, so this app was of limited use for me. Other than that it seemed to work well. More

Not kinda working for me. It's nice that its free, but would be more nicer if it would work well with my iphone 6. Maybe ill try tracking tommorrow on other location. More
This free application for iOs allows you to get the location of any artificial satellite and also its position in the sky.
by Ethan Fernandez
This is a great free app for tracking satellites. I have had absolutely no trouble with it. It is accurate and easy to use. I used it this morning to find and watch the International Space Station travel overhead. The app tells you exactly when and where it will appear on a simple sky map. More
Dish For My RV is a free application for iOs devices capable of locating satellites and determining obstructions before setting up a satellite dish. It is offered by Michael Berg and requires iOs version 8.0 and up.
by Mary Foster
This app is very good if you like keeping an eye on your antenna state. Highly recommend!
SatFinder is an application for iOs devices capable of locating a satellite. It is offered by Ralf Andrae and is compatible with iPhone and iPad devices with iOs 8.0 and up.

well said @Jeffrey! i took your comment before i installed this app and i was impressed because you didn't lie at all. Thank you very much!
by Jeffrey Ruiz
Neat sat finder app with good features I have seen better for free but this has some really good options and track pretty well
Satellite Director is a free application for Android devices that allows a user to locate a satellite. It requires phone compass or GPS and tracks satellites by pointing the device towards the sky.
by Pablo Cortés
The method is very simple and the app itself is easy to understand. I didn't have any trouble on my first use of this satellite finder. I recommend this especially to those who have minimal knowledge of satellites.
Using augmented reality, this app will help you determine local position of many satellites currently orbiting the Earth. This app will automatically compute every value needed to align your antenna.

Good sat finder app but not the best by a long shot.
