★ Zoom almost without limits on high resolution images of deep sky objects or planetary surfaces.
★ Observe in the field, even without internet connection, with a "reduced" set of data: 3 million stars, 2.3 million Deep Sky Objects, 10k asteroids.
★ Control your telescope through Bluetooth or WIFI: drive any GOTO telescope compatible with NexStar, SynScan or LX200 protocols.
★ Prepare your observing sessions using the advanced observation tools, to predict a celestial object observability and transit times.

What happened on my app Why is it day and Cheney am from the Philippines not United
★☆☆☆☆Jeff Pickering· Jun 26, 2026
Should be brilliant, however I cannot zoom, I get no labels for anything and if I press constellations I only get constellations, even when I point the camera at my foot.

This does not work with any instep mounts. It has a major bug which is known and hasn't been fixed. The supplier of the app also doesn't tell you this, so you need to work it out yourself. I have spent hours in it, so I have saved you the time.
