Observing times of list of selected satellites including their magnitudes for my location (astrophoto planning) #2039

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Maybe I do not find this option in #Stellarium Plus on #iphone (and I also did not find it in Desktop Stellarium) but how can I get a list of a selected set of satellites and their passages with magnitudes for the next days?

I want to plan when to see NOAA satellites and capture them with my SonyAlpha camera.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to get a way to select one or a few satellites, get their passover times for the next days and also get their magnitudes for my location.

Additional context The photo there shows it. I don't want to have all satellites and for the next passage, I would like to be more selective, for a longer timespan and with magnitudes. https://twitter.com/andreashornig/status/1457476149664260100

Thanks :)

There is no such option. HeavensAbove provides such service.
