Ratings and reviews

Very useful during winter astrophotography sessions, laptop can stay outside, and I can operate it from the couch ;)

great app. works with Nina flawlessly!

On this last update it always disconnects , and it is not usable at all even though I have a good connection to the modem and to the internet. Still good ongoing work worth of attention * If I were sincere it would probably have 1* because a few moments ago, while I was slewing my 2000€ harmonic drive, the app disconnected and mount kept slewing until almost collided with my tripod extension but since I was present I turned the mount off manually. This is also ClearSky fault, limit didn't work
