Know exactly when to look up

Overpass predicts when the Starlink train, the ISS, and other bright satellites cross your sky. It downloads public orbital data once, then computes every pass on your iPhone — offline, no account, no server.

What Overpass is

Satellite-tracking apps tend to be cluttered star-map toys or thin wrappers around someone else's server. Overpass is neither: it is a pass predictor. It answers one question — when should I step outside and look up? — and it computes the answer itself, on your phone, with a propagator verified against the standard reference test vectors.

What you get

The Starlink train

Freshly launched Starlink stacks make a bright, evenly spaced chain across the sky. Overpass tells you when the next train crosses yours, while it's still bright enough to be worth watching.

The ISS and bright satellites

Every visible ISS pass and the other bright satellites worth stepping outside for, with direction, elevation, and timing for your exact location.

The math runs on your device

Orbital elements are downloaded once, then every pass is propagated locally. No server computes anything for you — predictions work in a paddock with no reception.

Accurate, honestly

Pass times are typically within a minute. Satellites do manoeuvre, so Overpass makes refreshing the data before a big pass a one-tap habit, not a mystery.

Location stays yours

Grant location for effortless predictions, or type coordinates in manually. Either way it never leaves the device.

One-time unlock

Overpass Unlimited is a single one-time purchase — every Starlink train, all bright-satellite passes, and a custom minimum-elevation filter. No subscription, and your next visible pass is always free.
