The answer might surprise you.
Rockets out of Florida are routinely visible from as far north as the DC, New York and Boston corridor. In pre-dawn twilight, most of the Eastern Seaboard can see them.
Flyby works out whether you'll see the next one from where you live. It takes the rocket's trajectory and launch direction, how high it climbs by the time it crosses your horizon, whether the plume is still catching sunlight, and the cloud cover over you. You get a straight yes or no, and the minute to step outside.
Right before liftoff, hold your phone up. Flyby marks the spot in your sky with AR, so you're facing the right way when it climbs.
All of it is in Flyby now.
