Thank you to the Dev. Really happy with the app now that theirs a work around. Does exactly what it says it does. Side note:M50 Markii was perhaps the wrong choice for this hobby.1stReview: Disappointed, I just bought this app trying to use my M50 mark ii for astrophotography. The app stops doing as soon as my phone locks (Smsng S9 Android 10) its REALLY impractical to use for long exposure shots. Especially if you're shooting sessions need to last 2+hrs. Great shutter button I guess.

I was able to reproduce the issue and it appears to be caused by how Samsung implements their battery management, which is non-compliant with the way Google implements wake locks in Android. You can read more here: https://dontkillmyapp.com/samsung
From my tests the only way to prevent this issue is by having the phone connected to a battery pack.

Hallefnlujah! Initial testing confirms this app works with the M50. I've owned the move shoot move and this m50 for almost 3 years now and haven't been able to use it, because it won't use a normal intervalometer. Now, I read you loud and clear, an m50 isn't the first choice for any astrophotography landscaping, but I was on a budget. Developer; thank you very much! Will update to 5 stars when I get some clear skies.

Hi Charles, thanks for your feedback and hope the app works well for you (once you get some clear skies)

Works great on my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra with my Canon R5. I know the app description, at the time I downloaded it, said it doesn't (didn't) support the R5. Nevertheless, I emailed the developer who suggested I give it a try and if it didn't work he would refund my purchase. Happy to say it connected to my camera easily and worked completely.
