Everything You Need to Align Your Dish
1
See Satellites in AR
Point your camera at the sky and see exactly where satellites are located through augmented reality. No more guessing or trial-and-error – just point your phone and see the target direction instantly.
2
Get Exact Pointing Angles
Calculate precise azimuth and alignment values based on your exact location. The app gives you the same professional measurements installers use, helping you position your dish correctly the first time.
3
Choose Your Guidance Method
Use compass tools, AR camera view, or detailed map displays to find your satellite. Switch between Normal, Hybrid, Satellite, and Terrain maps to check your installation area and plan the best dish position.
4
Start Aligning Right Away
Select your target satellite from the list and get instant direction guidance. The app works anywhere with GPS – just hold your phone steady and follow the clear on-screen instructions to align your dish.
What is Satellite Finder (Dishpointer)?
This Android dish-alignment tool helps you choose a satellite and find the direction needed to point a satellite TV antenna. It combines your location with phone sensors to calculate pointing guidance, helping you prepare an installation or adjust an existing dish.
Use the direction and map guidance as an aid while you work at the dish. It supports planning and alignment; it does not replace a receiver, signal meter, or a clear view of the sky.
Who is Satellite Finder (Dishpointer) for?
This tool is for people setting up a satellite dish, realigning an antenna, or checking the direction toward a selected satellite. It can help home users, hobbyists, and installers organize the pointing process before fine-tuning the dish and checking reception.
It is useful when you need a satellite finder, dish pointer, or satellite director that explains the target direction on your phone. Results depend on your location, selected satellite, and device sensors.
What does Satellite Finder (Dishpointer) do?
- Select a satellite: choose a target from the available satellite list for your location.
- Calculate pointing guidance: view azimuth and alignment values used to aim the dish.
- Use compass tools: follow compass and gyro-compass guidance while turning toward the target direction.
- View satellites in AR: use the camera-based augmented-reality view to visualize satellite positions.
- Explore live maps: switch between Normal, Hybrid, Satellite, and Terrain map views when considering an installation area.
- Find BISS keys: use the in-app BISS key finder where the feature is available.
- Check your setup: compare the guidance with your dish position, receiver readings, and surroundings before completing alignment.
How does Satellite Finder (Dishpointer) work?
Turn on GPS or location services and, if you use AR view, grant camera access. Select a target satellite. The app uses your location to calculate direction and your phone's sensors to display azimuth guidance.
Hold the phone steadily and follow the compass or gyro-compass indication while positioning the dish. Open AR view to see the satellite direction through the camera, or use a map view to assess the installation area. Calibrate the compass if the reading appears unstable, and keep magnetic objects away during measurement.
After pointing the dish, use your receiver or a separate signal meter to fine-tune reception. Readings can be affected by calibration, magnetic interference, device hardware, location accuracy, obstructions, and weather. App guidance is not a guarantee of signal, channel availability, or reception quality.
Compatibility and requirements
The app requires location services and a working compass or compatible motion sensors for azimuth guidance. Camera access is needed only for augmented-reality view. Devices without these sensors may show limited guidance.
For better results, use GPS outdoors or near a window, keep the phone level, and calibrate its compass. A clear line of sight, stable dish mount, and compatible satellite equipment are also needed for reception. Map and satellite information may require internet.
The app contains ads and offers in-app purchases. The Play listing reports possible sharing of device or other IDs with third parties, encryption in transit, no data collected, and that data cannot be deleted. Disclosures may vary by region or version.
Privacy
The privacy policy describes personal and non-personal information, including technical, device, and usage details, and advertising partners may receive information for personalized advertising. Location and camera access support related features when enabled.
Permissions required:
- Location access is needed to determine your position and calculate satellite dish direction.
- Camera access is needed to take pictures and record video when using the augmented-reality satellite view.

It's too good 😃☺️ app. I didn't use any other app like this before . i have Giving five stars because worth it. It has saved my three to four thousand rupees for digital satellite meter.it given 💯% accurate results for me many times.
Best satellite finder App ever. I have tried different apps for Dish setting, Most of not work properly. By the help of this app 1St time within 15 seconds I have find signal my Tata Sky Dish. Thanks for this app.
Satellite Finder Pro is good and awesome application. One of the best application on playstore. I recommend to everyone. It is easy to install it. I love this application.
allowed a directv tech.to install my service with a similar app. After calibration,this app is spot on to his. Great app for newbies as well.
This app is more better than other sat finders,this use your current google location and tell the exact direction of the satellite.
