Ratings and Reviews
Just keeps getting better
The Seestar app is easy to use and gives you all the options you need to get the most out of the fantastic hardware. ZWO appear to be very responsive to feedback and are continuing to develop the app, with things like the recently added custom objects and the soon-to-be-released (hopefully!) mosaic mode. I couldn’t ask for more!
Broken on iPhone/iPad
This latest release has broken the ability to use the Seestar using an iOS/iPadOS device.
Basically it looks like the users location isn’t being passed to the device, whether this is detected automatically by the Seestar app, or entering the users location manually when prompted.
Turning off location services in ios settings you will see your location disappear from the Seetar home
screen, turning location services back on you will see your location correctly displayed in the Seestar app homescreen. The problem is that this information isn’t being passed to the Seestar by the app and this doesn’t just affect Stargazing mode but all imaging modes. In effect version 1.20 of the Seestar app turns your Seestar into a very expensive brick. You can still use the Sky Atlas to navigate, but imaging is literally impossible.
ZWO really dropped the ball in a big way on this update.
Great App perfect for beginners. Easy to use and works.
Needed of course to control Seestar telescope which it does brilliantly. The interface is clear and allows you find your way round the sky and choose what to image. The results are really good and you can improve the image by post processing if you wish. Highly recommended.
