Some people are reporting with the iOS 11 update that the passes list gets stuck updating when the app is first launched. A work around is to switch to another tab and return the passes list. Working on an update to address this as soon as possible. Please contact gosatwatch_support @ gosoftworks.com if you still see problems after the iOS 11 update.

Build 16663644v3.22013-09-16 05:56:24
Currently the sky view motion control is not working properly with the new iPhone 6s and 6s plus. This will be fixed with the next update. In the mean time motion control can be turned off in the preferences for manual control.
A recent review incorrectly states that the location is always tracked the background. Location is only used when the app is first started to correctly set the sky view and is then turned off to save power. Due to recent iOS security changes any app not updated for iOS 8 or later will default to showing location "Always" even if it is not always used.
