I‘m fascinated by "current" satellite images. The most enjoyable option I‘ve found is the FreshSat layers available in the Gaia GPS app. Being able to hold it in your hand while out and about and "look over walls", so to speak, is really fun.

They combine the free Sentinel and Landsat images, I think, and a few web services do that too, but none of them seem to work as well.




Hmmm I just downloaded this and signed up but I can only get topo maps for free.


Oh that's unfortunate. I just checked and FreshSat is listed as a "Premium" layer in the app. It's a good piece of software but not worth it just for what is essentially free data.

You can pan around the map a little bit here: https://www.gaiagps.com/maps/source/freshsat-cloudless/
