For those of you who enjoy watching space launches or special events, you really need to snag this Universal Windows 10 app. The app is called LaunchPal, and it has one simple mission: keep you notified whenever there is an upcoming space launch or event. Here’s the official app description:

“LaunchPal is a perfect companion for keeping you up to date with upcoming space launches and events. It keep tracks of the next planed launch and displays the launch time and a countdown timer for easy planing.”

The app has a super simple layout and is compatible on both Windows 10 desktop and Windows 10 Mobile. Opening the app displays the relevant information, such as the next mission planned, when the next launch time is scheduled, how long you have to wait, a short description, and a link to view the launch (if a live stream is provided).

It’s a super simple app and definitely worth grabbing if you are into SpaceX or any other space organization. In a future update, i’d like to see a live stream of a space launch within the app as opposed to a link that just opens up the browser. The app is free and you can download it below.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
