To find the nearest TV satellites, simply raise your phone to the sky while the application is running. It will indicate on the real world view where all the satellites are as seen through your phone's screen, so you will know if a tree or a structure will be blocking the signal. This application can help you install, setup, or align your satellite dish accurately in real time to ensure that you get the best signal.
