I just happened to stumble upon this an hour ago and was able to catch the ISS passing over Boston shortly later! The street view integration is magic and made the ISS a piece of cake to find.

This is such a clever app, and the street view integration is very slick! I did notice that the button to notify me when other objects will be passing overhead didn't do anything (iOS safari)... would love to sign up for notifications when there are more sightings to be had.



Glad you were able to see the ISS! Thanks for the bug report. I just found out that the reason for this is that Safari does not support the standard Web Push API. https://www.caniuse.com/#feat=push-api

Maybe they'll implement it eventually. Until then I guess I'll hide the notification button in Safari.
