Nebulis
Your Night Sky Library
USD 4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Nebulis is the companion app for your Nebulis astrophotography server. Browse your entire deep-sky image library from your iPhone or iPad, plan your next observation session, and dive deep into the objects you've captured.
Your Library, Your Way
Browse hundreds of images organized by object, date, and type. Filter by galaxies, nebulae, or star clusters. Mark favorites, swipe through full-screen previews with pinch-to-zoom, and edit your captures right on your device.
Plan Your Next Session
The built-in planner shows you what's worth imaging tonight based on your location — with altitude charts, object details, and a curated "best tonight" list so you spend less time planning and more time imaging.
Sky Forecast
Check local sky conditions before you haul out the gear. Seeing and transparency forecasts help you decide if it's worth setting up.

Planner: New Schedule View
The planner now has a full timeline-based schedule you can drag objects onto, resize, and reorder. A sky-arc editor lets you define your visible horizon segment for accurate visibility checks. Objects light up based on whether they're up, partially visible, or blocked during your scheduled slot.
Planner: Share Your Plan
Tap the share button to export tonight's plan as a branded image card — includes the session list, timeline bar, moon phase, and an elevation chart for each object. Or copy a plain-text summary to paste anywhere.
QR Code Device Pairing
Connect a new phone or iPad by scanning a QR code generated from the server's Settings page. No more typing IP addresses or manually entering server URLs.
FITS Color Rendering
Color .fit files now display in full color. Previously they rendered as monochrome regardless of the capture filter.
Image Editor
Crop, rotate, and adjust brightness/contrast with an overhauled editor. The crop overlay now supports pan gesture to reposition the crop area, and the watermark panel has been redesigned with compact sliders.
Session Detail
Minor layout and action improvements on the session detail view.
