Launch Console

Super excited to have something like this now readily available in the palm of your hand to give the basic information on current launches and near future launches. This app is great for locals who forget about all that goes on AND for tourists who have come to the area just to see a launch. I would suggest being able to bring up the tutorial again as there are a lot of cool features this app offers and most people (me!) don’t always spend the time to read through all the features and guides in the first go around and so far I have been unable to pull the intro back up. I also agree with some of the other reviews that it would be nice to expand on the information for each rocket. There are so many cool fun facts it would be easy to integrate in. Thanks to whoever made this app happen!

This app is nice with lots of future potential and growth. Love the idea to stream line the rocket launch schedule for the fans. Can't wait to see the live stream work. This app would would be great if it archived the past launches and videos. Would be nice if they indicated location and launch pad under details. Also maybe make it possible to add dates to iCal and have notifications on days of launch. And eventually link global launches from other countries or space items like blue origin and Virginia Galactic. Totally keeping this on my phone and testing it out. Thanks!

I like the app, just wish it would have some better functionality. There is an internet website version of this app that was around before they made this one. What I like about that one, and this is only my preference, is it shows the seconds in the countdown. This app only shows days, hours, minutes. Whats fun about watching launches is knowing when it’s T-minus 10 seconds especially when you don’t live by the space center. I live about 50 miles away and can’t always get to the coast to watch. Second issue and this is common with all these type of apps, it that the countdown is always off by about 10-15 seconds. Used it for multiple launches and as the countdown on the app approaches 12, 11, 10, 9. Etc. there is the rocket already in the sky heading to orbit! Contacted developers repeatedly, but like all of you here writing reviews, all go unanswered and no fixes ever.

PLEASE add "Local Time" of the launch to the main screen!! The "countdown" is fun, but for planning, one either has to look at what time it is and then add the days, hours and minutes to that or go to the website. As a secondary suggestion, you might link some of those other nice main screen graphics such as "Data" to more mission specific information. You already have a beautifully created foundation, now all you need do is build on it by completing the linking to the area(s) on the screen to additional information/resources.

Really enjoying it, would like it to have a couple more features however. 1) countdwpn as lock screen. It may be worthwhile to make it possible to set the countdown timer as a phone’s lock screen. I’d appreciate it as someone who does not always remember to go to the up to check on launch status. 2) more detailed about the launch. One-paragraph descriptions is definitely not enough 3) as a long-term project it would be awesome to add info about international launches from other sites. Because not all potential users love on Florida :)
