Live 3D orbit tracking
Start with a real-time Earth globe built around actual satellite positions, orbit paths, and selected-object focus.
Track satellites live from your iPhone.

What it does
Start with a real-time Earth globe built around actual satellite positions, orbit paths, and selected-object focus.
Plan visible passes with peak timing, sky direction, visibility grades, and local viewing context instead of raw orbit tables.
Point your iPhone toward the sky and follow where a satellite should appear, with confidence states and offscreen guidance.
Explore radio-capable satellites, transmitter details, and public observation recordings when signal data is available.
Built-in intelligence for launches, crew missions, news, reentries, close approaches, space weather, and source-backed context.
Switch from Earth satellites to real Moon, Sun, and Mars spacecraft modes powered by ephemeris data.
Good to know
Tap Apply for TestFlight and send a short tester application. If there is room in the testing group, you will get an invite through Apple’s TestFlight app when a build is ready.
No. Live Orbit is designed so you can open the app and start exploring without creating an account, setting up a profile, or handing over extra personal details.
Your location is used to show what is visible from where you are. It helps calculate passes, align the sky view, and make the app feel local to you. You stay in control of location access from iPhone Settings.
You can follow satellites as they move around Earth, check when passes are worth stepping outside for, keep up with launches, and see space news beside the tracker instead of jumping between different apps.
Satellites move fast, and their paths are updated from public orbit data. As newer data comes in, pass times can shift a little. Live Orbit is meant to make those changes easier to understand.
Live Orbit is being built for iPhone first so the core experience can feel focused, fast, and native. Other platforms can be considered after the iPhone version is solid.
