Gosatwatch for the iPhone/ iPad makes it very easy for you to see, either on the world map, the sky view. or pass prediction graph whether it’s eclipse or not. It’s fun when showing people invisible I SS pass and girl it’s going to disappear in about 10 seconds and yes it does.

G0KLA Track will show you visually which satellites are in sun vs eclipse if you click the little sun icon. You can see all your selected satellites for the next 2 days. It is very low overhead so I just run it in parallel with the program I am using to steer the antenna. It is best used as a forecast of upcoming passes rather than as a view of a pass in progress. There is an example of the sun/eclipse view on this page: https://www.g0kla.com/klatrack/index.php

When it is illuminated by the sun and not eclipsed by the earth the satellite is shown as yellow. There is also a column named Eclipse which will display Sun if the satellite is illuminated by the Sun, else Drk.
