Description
Unfortunately, the app keeps getting bad reviews because the compass or spirit level doesn't work. This is then because the device does not have a compass sensor or a tilt sensor. An understanding from the buyer is very rare. A refund is of course possible. So please convince yourself before buying whether your device has the following sensors.
-Compass sensor
-Tilt sensor
-GPS

Ratings and Reviews
Rating: 3.3/5 based on 2+ reviews

1 ★ It's always off maybe 10-15 degrees west. My compass gives a better reading of north.
4 ★ I would love the option to see how Polaris would look thru the telrad. I can very carefully align the telrad to point exactly on a star.
1 ★ This app does not adjust correctly for the mirrored right angled Astro Physics RAPAS polar alignment scope. If you thought it was correct and used the app for alignment, you would be way off. Please fix this oversight.
5 ★ I find this to be very helpful for daytime solar photography, I use an EQ mount, Coronado 60mm solar max single stack telescope, Player One Apollo M Mini camera, made a special plate to set my Samsung phone, to help with daytime alignment, during capture, using SharpCap Pro, I notice I have to make fewer corrections on the EQ mount, thanks to this app, getting ready for the upcoming solar eclipse in April 8 2024
1 ★ I'm trying to set this up did everything it said but nothing is working ready to get my money back
