Ratings and Reviews
Version 2.1.1 & version 2.2 do not connect to SA 2i
The app worked perfectly fine until the recent updates. The app now does not connect to the star adventurer 2i pro. The help section appears to be related to the SAM, with no option to contact the developer. The developers revision notes state minor changes with no break down of what had actually changed. All this leaves a useless app with no obvious solutions?
App works again
UPDATE 12 February: connectivity issue is fixed, I can now control the mount using iPhone 12. Leaving earlier comment below but updating rating given it is now usable.
Today was my first attempt to use the SkyWatcher mount I received as a gift, pretty frustrating that I wasted so much time battling with this app on my iPhone. As others report, connecting via WiFi seems to work ok (mount LED turns solid green) but this app can’t see the device. I thought I would try my iPad Pro (WiFi only, no cellular) and it works fine. I also was able to connect a Windows laptop. I see no reason why this shouldn’t work on iPhone. I’m not filled with confidence in the app / support / mount given there is no route to actually report this issue to the developer / manufacturer of the mount so my only option seems to be to leave a 1 star review and hope it gets attention.
Doesn’t seem to be working any more
No matter what I try, I can’t seem to get the app to connect to the star adventurer 2i. The phone connects to its wifi network, but the app for whatever reason insists it can’t see anything to connect to. You really need to fix this app, I don’t understand what exactly you changed, but it no longer works at all
