I use an app on iPhone called SkyView lite. It uses ar to show stars and planets and stuff. It does shows the iss and will project it’s path in the sky. Here is a screen shot of its current location, the projected path is visible at night. https://i.imgur.com/DpPTTZq.jpg

I used to use Google Sky, but cheap phones stopped having magnetometers in them so the apps sucks. It does not track with your movements without em.

We ended up being able to see it pop in and out between the clouds. Fun moment to share with my kid.

You'll most likely be able to see it from your home. The ISS is close to earth so it's pretty easy to see. Moves quick though.
