A good app but the developers should stop the phone timing out the app and disconnecting. This is a real problem when used with Stellarium on my HEQ5 pro with a SynScan WiFi dongle. This activity puts SynScan Pro into the background and eventually my Samsumg S10 decides shuts it down to save power. A simple fix but it requires jumping between the apps to keep them active or restarting the app then Stellarium when it times out.

Working well so far in both alt az and eq mide on my az gti. There are 2 issues I've noted in 2 nights out. 1) once i search for a star once in the named stars list it disappears from the list in future searches (bizarre) and 2) the camera function is awesome (really, its great) but so far has only triggered the slr 50% of the time. I hope to sort that out asap.

Poor. Will not connect to location sensor. Kust spent 500 quid on a 127 AZ GTi and can't use the goto mount. Poor ain't the word. Tried reinstalling the app, still the same issue. If you enter some random location manually then the mount will work. Absolutely not good enough. Also noticed this this is a reoccurring theme in the reviews. Not good enough. People spend hard earned money and very expensive bits of kit and this is what they get. Beyond annoyed.

This app has a real issue connecting to the wifi dongle on my one plus 7. Windows version works fine on my PC. The instructions don't work and I've looked online for work arounds, but with little success. It appears that the app has a problem with permissions. Still unsure what those are.

Developers, please consider updating the app to support Android 11. As it is now, it crashes on launch.

The app needs to indicate when it is tracking. The goto function rarely goes to the target, no matter how many times I go through the alignment processes.
