Next Spaceflight App Reviews

What can I say, I’m biased.. If you’re nuts for space flight and want to know the what, where, when and how. This is for you. Not only do I follow Mr Baylor on twitter, I get his mobile update. Other people have tried to catalog this data, but this is the most comprehensive.

My Personal Inside Ticket. Next Spaceflight is my personal inside ticket to launches around the world! I totally adore this program, and I heartily and sincerely thank those responsible for putting it together and supporting it! It is my most valuable and necessary app, the one aside from AccuWeather that I check every day, and is literally the only one I recommend to my grandchildren and their parents and friends for a STEM app!

Less is more!. This app is great at providing an enormous amount of information about each launch. However, you can lose the general information in all of the minutia. Sometimes I just want to know when the rocket is going to blast off, so I can watch it. Occasionally that is impossible to decipher. Please have a screen that simply states when the rocket will blastoff and then let us navigate to all of the remaining stuff.

Wow, so amazing in real time.. This really is an amazing time we live in. I’m 74 years old and remember the grainy images on t.v. of rocket launches, from ground view. Now we can watch the launch in clear video from the ground, the booster and upper stage, on our cell phones!! Humans do have the capacity to do great things. If we could treat each other and our planet with love and respect, we would really be an incredible animal.

17+?. It’s a great app with all the upcoming rocket launches, space news, “on this day” historical rocket launches, and a catalog of launch vehicles (which would be even better with filters for date, etc. but maybe I missed that). My only question: why is it rated 17+? Seems like a bunch of kids would like to keep track of upcoming launches.

Love it! Live activities would make it killer. The design, look, and layout of the app are absolutely beautiful, and the data is presented in a really understandable way. Live activities for active launches (i.e. BoxBox for F1 races) would make this app something I cannot live without, and is the reason I didn’t rate 5 stars.

Fastest Updates. After having used both the paid and free versions, my experience is this app keeps up with changes to schedules more so than any other app.

Fantastic Rocket Launch App. If your looking for a FREE app to keeps you up to date for the upcoming launches no matter the location-this is it! The programmer is on it. While watching LIVE, 6 o’clock news, NextSpaceFlight notified me before the news casters said anything. Another cool feature NextSpaceFlight has is the “watch live” feed. Just imagine watching a live launch in person but once the rocket is out of view, you can watch the rocket leave our atmosphere from your cellphone. If your a rocket launch fan like me, this is the only app you’ll need. 👍🏽👍🏽

Great app. Speed has improved. Functionality is decent. Last update looks nicer but the lunch list was much better with Date/time of upcoming launch vs days:hours remaining. Need to be able to glance at it and see if there are any launches next Thursday for example without having to do mental math in my head

The best. Admittedly I am a space nerd, this app has kept me on point with all the launches from Florida since I live in central Florida and can see the launches from my backyard. It’s features are awesome like the ability to follow a launch or watch the live stream it has tons of info and historic launch info. I recommend it to anyone who is into space but especially if you live in a state where launches take place.

Works great but needs one thing. It’s a great app that keeps you up to date. But we need location specific notifications. If I want to be notified for Florida launches I have to get every single launch location. I don’t care about the ones in the cosmodrome or Chinas mysterious unknown payload ones. I just want to be notified about the ones I can see from my window

Awesome Spaceflight App!. This is the best documentation of SpaceX in space launch history over the past couple years that I’ve seen so far. It is extremely user-friendly and has a surprising amount of detail about times, and dates where launches were conducted with video to accompany the info.

Great App for the Space Coast. Full info on all upcoming launches. So much, that I am glad you can filter by your favorite launch sites. No hidden changes. Get it. I wish the widget would show the next “favorite“ launch. It shows the next launch world wide.

Space flight. I wish my dad was still alive to see such frequent spaceflight. He worked for Aerojet and for many years and I know he would really enjoy watching these launches.

Amazing. This app is the best space flight app I have used. It gives you info on each launch and vehicle information and working at the space center it is spot on with launch time. Most apps have a 15 to 30 second delay and this one is spot on. Highly recommended and I have to many people.

Worth it for the maps alone. Anything NSF related is going to be 100, but this app solves a big problem for me, I wanted an easy way to know if I should go outside and see if I can see a rocket in the sky. I have already seen one, and I have only had the app for less than a month. Just download it and see what it can do!

Mandatory For Space Flight Enthusiasts. Let me preface this by saying Michael is an absolute treasure in the spaceflight community. His work with NASASpaceflight often goes unnoticed, but he is a absolute rock star. With that said, this app is a must-have for spaceflight enthusiasts. Launch dates and times are often so fluid, that it’s very easy to miss a launch. With Next Spaceflight’s rich notifications and links to livestreams of that particular launch, I’ve yet to miss one! This is one of the few apps that I would gladly pay a premium for! Thank you Michael! 🙏

good app, just a few improvements and bugs. whenever i look through the "on this day" or through launches CRS-8 pops up 2-3 times. can you fix that?

My Main way of Checking Launches.. This has been my favorite app to see launch schedules. I love all the different statistics that are here and that all the launches from the past are on here. However, I'm not a fan of the new update. I like the new home tab but as a blind person who uses VoiceOver it doesn't work as well as the old version. Other than that I have loved this app and would only suggest making the new version work better with VoiceOver.

Beautiful Layout but Missing one Key feature. The layout and design of the app is beautiful. You can quickly see what launches are next and it gives a ton of information about each launch. The only thing is that you can’t schedule it to notify you for specific launches. You either have the option of it notifying you for every launch or none. I want the ability to turn it on to notify for specific missions or even have it so that you can notify for certain companies or launch vehicles because the favorites are only for launch sites too. Oh and a widget would be great so you don’t have to open the app to see what the next launches are. Besides that a great app

Great app for the space fan!. This is an amazing app, especially for the casual/amateur space fan. Gives you current launches, but I also love the past launches and the facts and history of each. The Starbase section is also super informative and endlessly fascinating.

Great to forecast and update launches status. Great for initially finding launch times but sometimes it takes its own time warp and I was watching Falcon Heavy already having launched when the app was showing it on the pad and countdown was T-0:55 and counting down. Good thing I was already outside.

And a way we go!. Love this app. I get notifications so I know when to go out my front door to watch the launch. Not quite as exciting from my front door as it is being used to there but still very cool.

Love it!!. I love this free app!! It has a clear & concise launch schedule. Then it is easy to see the countdown & to watch the launch live (I can often see the launches from my house if the weather is clear enough 😀😀).

Problems with the starship section. I love this app. It’s very helpful but as a fan of SpaceX, I’d like to keep up with starship and how many of them there are and there’s an entire section dedicated starship yet it doesn’t have ships and boosters for example ship 28 or ship 32 or ship 27 those are not displayed on the app, but I’d like to see them on the app but for some reason either you guys didn’t update it or the app can’t keep track. I just don’t know how it works, but I’d like that to be fixed. but other than that, the app is amazing and I would recommend it to every spaceflight enthusiast.

Best launch tracker app ever!. Best skincare tracking app ever. It’s amazing to know where the Falcon 9 booster will land and even to know foreign company’s launching!! I recommend you use it! You can even track starship progress and see vehicles!

Excellent App!. This is an excellent app, and the new user interface is even better (updated Jan 2024). There are no ads and it gives you directly all the information that you need for all the upcoming space launches. The designers of this app deserve tons of praise, and I would gladly tip them if there was an option inside the app. It’s like the Apollo (old Reddit app) of space launch apps! Download now!

Amazing detail for every launch past and present!. Unbelievable how well this app is designed. Great for anyone interested in quickly knowing what launches are coming up and digging deeper with links to great articles.

Countdown to the Next Liftoff. More than just having a countdown timer that resembles the actual countdown from NASA, you can filter to have rocket launches from the nearest location in order to plan your trip ahead. Planning as far out as three to four months in advance! Simple interface, great once-in-a-lifetime experience for those traveling as tourists. This app is the true space enthusiast app.

Was good until recently. Recent 4.0 update completely ruined a good layout, current version makes it harder for simpletons who dont know the standard 24hour roll, interface has become to large and now have to filter launches manually instead of having just your favorites show up… not a fan of recent update or there live streams(to much chatter not enough stats) so this will now be a relic of app history as i wont be using it anymore…

So helpful!. I live on the west coast in Southern California and with the more frequent launches from Vandenberg SFB, it helps to have great information about any launches. It’s very easy to use and the 3D visualizations of some of the launches are amazing! The only criticism is that the tab buttons don’t return to the top of the list when you’ve swiped down, so if you swiped down too far it takes a while to get back to the top. Amazing work!

Incredible!. I’ve been using this app for about 3 years at this point and it keeps getting better. It is always reliable and works great!

The definitive rocket app.. Next Spaceflight has continually improved their app, since I got into space after Falcon Heavy's maiden flight in 2018. Settings/customization is outstanding. Information is comprehensive and accurate, including historic launch data pre-dating the app, launch timelines, and info on individual boosters and vehicles. Only flaw is the backend. App is sluggish at times and takes too long to load when starting.

Incredible update. The new updates are incredible. Shows launch direction and likely trajectory along with detailed pre launch milestones. This is the app you want to

Couple major issues. There are a couple major issues that ruin this for me. The first is that there is no dark mode icon for iOS 18. Their app icon is so simple that it would take less than 5 minutes to upload an appropriate dark mode icon but they have not. To me, this signals that they don’t care since they’ve had months to submit one. It seems like a small issue but it’s one of the only apps that doesn’t have a dark mode version on my phone and it means all notifications show up in light mode- very annoying and doesn’t match the system theme. Slightly related to the first point, is the amount of notifications. There is no way, from what I can tell, to filter notifications to only show nearby launches. Only want to see the ones near me that I can see. I don’t need notifications all day every day for launches happening all over the planet. Let me filter notifications by the ones I actually want to see. These two issues magnify each other since the spam of notifications show up on my feed every day in a light mode icon that doesn’t match all of the other iOS 18 dark mode icons. Could be great but they cut corners in places that should be very simple basic features.

Amazing but just one thing. I love this app so so so much but all I ask for is when you click on a mission and then the share button you can add it to your iOS calendar Other then that everything is awesome

Up up and away!!. If I could give this app more than five stars, I would just let it go up up and away as far as it could cause it is excellent. Great job!! I live in Palm Harbor, Florida and on clear nights when the rocket goes off, I can see it all the way from this side of the coast.. Thanks you all rock it. 😆 get it

Very Up To Date and Informative. This is a must have for any spaceflight fan. The app is very up to date on all launches around the world. And responds quick to changes in schedules. Not only does it list upcoming and previous launches, it has detailed specs on each launch vehicle.

Great notifications and links. I had been waiting for someone to build a platform to give me key information and alert me before rocket launches so I never miss out in Florida. This app is perfect for me.

I check it at least once every day. This is an excellent app that maintains accurate, up to the minute information on all launches. It is well organized with a clean interface. This is definitely the best app for space launch enthusiasts.

Great for Space Junkies. Want to know whenever anything goes into space, this is the app. I also love the daily history too. Being able to see what flew today in history.

Wonderful link to Spaceflights. My husband and I look at this website every day to see if a launch is scheduled. It is a great place to learn about the flights and vehicles. We love using it.

Maybe it’s me?. I love the app! It’s so easy to use and straight forward. Unfortunately, my one drawback is I am unable to stop it from alerting me of other launches that aren’t in my area. So I get alerts at all hours of the day that I’m not interested in.

One of my favorite apps. It’s well-maintained by an active developer who is very knowledgeable about this subject area. I follow it daily and look forward to the next launches. I liked it so much I joined the Patreon and Discord, which offer even more benefits and a very fun group of space fans. I’m so glad I found this app!

Near-perfect. You don’t get much better than this for free. Great app with great information. Two things I’d like: Send to/add to calendar for launches. And embedded the livestreams into the app so as to avoid going to a separate app. Otherwise fantastic.

I don’t see how it could be any better. It is not only a very precise launch calendar from all space agencies and companies. But also a vast encyclopedia that details every launch of every single vehicle that has been to space. The new UI looks gorgeous and very modern. 6 out of 5 Thank you for such an amazing app

I love this app and use it for work!. This is the best app I have found to track launches. Often times and dates can slip during a launch, and this is where I go for updates. It has a widget I use in iOS which is super convenient. I also love that I can select my local Cape Canaveral area as a “favorite” and filter down to that when I need. Awesome app!!

Amazing app!. This app has an incredible database including every launch in history, and future planned launches months out. Every launch has every detail you could want, and notifications are extremely customizable (for example, you can choose to receive notifications from only one launch site). Would recommend 100%

Incredible App. The Next Spaceflight app is a must-have for anyone who loves space exploration. It provides accurate launch schedules, mission details, and real-time updates. The interface is clean and easy to use, making it simple to track upcoming launches from all over the world. Notifications from this combined with RGV Aerial Photography discord server updates ensure I never miss an important event. Highly recommend!

Just what I was looking for. This app has it all. It has information on all the launches AND allows you to filter for only launches I’m interested in, in my case Cape Canaveral. So I can immediately see what I want and if I want more info it’s available and easily accessible.

Amazing!. I am not big on writing reviews but wow this app has so much detail about every past rocket launch and all future “known” launches! The notifications for when launches happen is also a great feature, this also includes links for launch streams! Well done can’t wait to see what else you rollout in this app!

Simply the best. This app (thank you Michael) is superior and entirely useful. Makes water tower watching a breeze along with all other rocket launches.

Good App!. The interface is very clean and simplistic, the app shows you launches from lots of different companies and even has Starship updates. The app automatically shows you the time of a launch in your timezone which is great for people like me who live in the Southern Hemisphere and finding a definitive time can be difficult sometimes.

Brilliant. Best way to stay on top of upcoming launches

Great app. This is great. Just wish it would background refresh as it takes quite a while to update once it is opened.

Billion Star Rating🌟. This is a great resource for anyone who loves space exploration and wants to watch awesome rockets launching, astronauts space walking, and sometimes exciting RUDs💥 The space history section is a fabulous resource and the ease of navigation and overall app design is very welcome. Highly recommended!

Next Spaceflight. All up an outstanding piece of software

Very nice. Awesome app, great work!

Amazing. It’s an amazing app, really informational. But I have a suggestion: what about adding a “spacecraft search”, kind of like the vehicle search, but you can search for spacecrafts.

One rare perfect app. Thanks for bringing this app to that level!

Love space. Enjoying the launches wherever I am and whatever I’m doing - the future is here :)

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Launch Fan Loves This. We go to Vandenberg AFB often, and occasionally to Cape Canaveral, to watch rockets take off and this app is an excellent & easy-to-use consolidation of info for past and future launches. Awesome!

Great App!. I have tried many taps to see the rocket launches at Cape Canaveral and this is definitely by far the best one. Highly recommend.👍🏼

Livestream. Click the watch the launch livestream and nothing

I love this app!. Thank you so much for this app! Love watching for the next launches. Helps me plan for viewing! Happy New Year!

the only spaceflight app you need. i’ve been using this app for around a year now, and it’s always extremely accurate. the new update awesome!

Best out there.. Nothing like it.

YES. I’ve use the web version before and I was not expecting the mobile version to be just as good if not better

Awesome. Very cool to watch launches. Also watch John McDonald’s Facebook page.

Space X.. Awesome. Keep up the good work. I love my company I work for. I believe. Occupy mars!!!

The quality of the app. Great app love how it keeps me up to date and I like the infomation I get from the app 😁

Interesting and Informative. I’m enjoying the app and have become very interested in the content. Good job!

Very good. I was able to go back all the way to Apollo 11 and beyond so good, would you recommend

Excellent!. Absolutely best app to stay on top of the latest launches and space news! Brilliant coding super smooth!

Sweet app. This app keeps you locked in to launches-

Fantastic. If you follow spaceflight, this is a seriously great app! It’s beautifully designed and easy to use. Well done!

A+ App. It's a niche thing but it's done perfectly and very satisfying to use, I adore this app

Best tool ever. I recommend this app to everyone I know! And the newest starship info update is just icing on the cake

love it. great app, would love to see option for reminders more than just one day in advance, and more per mission info like in supercluster

Greatest info site ever. Wonderful

Excellent app. No ads make it great. I highly recommend. Also, join the discord server, it is full of space discussion and is great

Wonderful App. Kudos to this developer for making such a beautiful and useful app. Thank you!!

Time delay. Anyway to shorten the time delay from what we are watching live and what is transmitted on app? Russ

Filters Settings. I don’t know about previous versions, but once you set a filter on this version, it won’t let you return to the home page.

Brilliant!. Easy to use features. Genius app!

Next Spaceflight. I had a lot of apps but this is the best one I ever had and joy to seeing The lift off from around the world including USA 🇺🇸 👍👍

Useless. No alerts. No reminders. May as well just search the internet for launch info.

Notification sounds are not working. The sound for the notifications does not work.

Love. I love that I can listen to the play by play. It’s way more fun. I try to watch every one always. Even if it gets scrubbed.

Handy app. This app is very handy on keeping track of the next launch for SpaceX and NASA resupply rocket times. love how accurate it is.

Thank you. I enjoy being notified of the launches. Just fun to watch and pray over. Or under!!! Thank you for the play by play relay. We watch them from Englewood, FL. West coast of FL

Filters aren’t working on the Home page. I filter out chinese launch agencies and launch sites in settings but they are still appearing on the Home page.

Great app. Having the ability of being notified about future launches is awesome!

Awesome App!!!. This app is one of a kind and my go to for launches!!! Great information and app!!!

Next Spaceflight. It’s the best app in the business. Stays right up to date.

Amazing. I love the app and how I get all the updates! The best ALL AROUND APP!!!

Love this app. Keeps me informed of launches on the east coast. Wish you would include trajectory as well. On the coast of NC, so only see them occasionally. Thanks!

Amazing app for space fans. nextspaceflight is very convenient with just the right features

take me to space. Hi take me to space

L J Cio. Great app , keep everyone up to dat and consistently informed. I enjoy sharing with friends on the west coast of Florida. Excited to hear the roar from my home.

Broadcast!. A little to much talk, need more info on rocket, why are broadcasts late and we miss liftoff? Need to update information if late or scrubbed or moved. Do you need more broadcasters?

Today’s Launch. I never get tired of watching these launches. It’s always great to see!

Happiness. This app is great, I love the notifications and being able to walk out my front door and watch the launches-how awesome is that!

Amazing app. This is exactly what I wanted! This app is incredible. I love that it send me notifications before space flights. It’s full of great info and a really cool app.

Head’s up. Love the heads up keeps me ready for the next launch.

Great app. Have always wanted a source for launch schedule updates!

Great app. I’d miss all launches if I didn’t have this app

great info. You will be fully informed with this app. I have recommended it to all my friends.

Delayed takeoffs. Is there any way on the app if the launch is delayed if it’s going to go, they could send a text alert. I watched channel 13, but it’s hard to say when it’s gonna launch. thank you.

Awesome App!. Thank you, Michael Baylor! What an awesome way to track the world of space and the progress humanity is making across the world. Looking forward to more goodies on the app!

The best APP for us Space NUTS. Best way to keep updated on launches around the world.....
