   heaven's above may have an iOS app... i forget... either way, it (and several   
   others) are strictly satellite tracking sites... there are, of course, local   
   apps that can be run, too... especially for HAM operators working   
   satellites... gpredict is one or those that is ok... it is going through some   
   updates related to radio control... it can/will turn your antenna and switch   
   freqs on your radio when working a satellite...   
      
   i used to use the old STSPlus for ground tracks and listing sats with upcoming   
   view chances... currently i'm using gpredict on linux in place of STSPlus but   
   it just isn't the same...   
      
   they're good but i also want one that shows the sky view from my location with   
   the sat's path so i will know exactly which sat i'm seeing flying over... in   
   that end, i'm using stellarium which is an astronomy program first... but my   
   current setup for all of these is nothing like what i had on my OS/2 system   
   before Hurricane Florence blew through here and mucked things up :|
