mckero 7319cf8f5b fix(coroutines): propagate cancellation in remote source and status view model
RemoteSource's five suspend functions and SatStatusViewModel's two fetch paths
caught bare Exception, which also swallows CancellationException. When the
owning scope is cancelled (screen leaves, app closes) a cancelled network call
was reported as a null/error result instead of stopping: the caller kept
running until the next suspension point, and SatStatusViewModel wrote state
updates into an already-cancelled scope. Correct coroutine hygiene is to let
cancellation propagate - rethrow CancellationException before the generic
catch. Verified semantically with an asyncio probe: a swallowed cancel returns
a normal-looking null and the caller continues; a propagated cancel stops the
coroutine immediately.

No behaviour change for real errors; :core:data and :feature:status compile.

Look4Sat: Satellite tracker

Look4Sat CI

Get it on Google Play Get it on F-Droid

Radio satellite tracker and pass predictor for Android, inspired by Gpredict

Track satellite passes with ease!

Thanks to Celestrak and SatNOGS you have access to over 9000 active satellites.
You can search the entire database by NORAD Catalog Number or the satellite's name.

Orbital positions and passes are calculated relative to your location.
To get reliable data make sure to set the station position via the app Settings.

The application is built using Kotlin, Coroutines, Jetpack Compose and Navigation.
It is now and always will be completely ad-free and open-source.

Main features:

  • Predicting satellite positions and passes for up to 10 days
  • Showing the list of currently active and upcoming satellite passes
  • Showing the active pass progress, polar trajectory and transceivers info
  • Showing the satellite positional data, footprint and ground track on the map
  • Custom TLE satellite data import is available via Three Line Element .txt files
  • Offline first: calculations are made offline. Weekly TLE data update is recommended.
