I have not found an app that directly controls this telescope. However apps I use along side it are Google sky map and phases of the moon. Also Celestron Skyportal app. There are many different apps out there. The on board computerized audiostar is also fantastic. Once the telescope is aligned properly you can find lits in the universe with it. Hope this helps. I wish you Clear Skies :)

There are various apps in both IOS & Android that show live sky maps, locations, rise & set times and much more. I use Android apps such as Mobile Observatory which only cost about $4-5 but has virtually everything one would need. There are other apps such as SKeye, Google Star Maps, Stellarium, ISS Detector and more. You simply align the GoTo computer in the telescope as instructed then locate objects on your device then slew to them with the telescope keypad. It is possible to connect certain telescope cameras to this telescope on your laptop to record videos that can be 'stacked' into a single good picture as well. The StarNavigator is a pretty good refractor for the price, it will give you decent views of Jupiter, Saturn & especially the Moon. It will automatically track any object & keep it in the eyepiece for quite a few hours.

No App works to control this telescope. You have to use the hand controller that comes with it.

I have not found anything that goes along side this product. I do use "droid sky" and "space junk",for free, on my android phone with or without the telescope.

It will not work with a computer...not that I have figured out. I couldn't get it to work on. Y iPad either, just my phone, which is an android. But I can't get it to sync EVER so now it's kind of useless.

No, unfortunately. This device is not what you wanted it to be (at least not what I expected it could do) and is still limited to use with apps that are specifically designed for it and not for everyday computer use or integration with other devices.

No. See details on other question about using this device (which is excellent) and iOS devices...

No you can buy it separately for $20. If you have an iPhone or iPad you can just use that!

I have been using it with android devices (both tablet and phone). The first versions were really bad, the latest is very good. Also, any new update is first released for IOS and months (!) later to Android

Hi Pamela, I have the digifit app and it gave me the option to pair with that in the app you were referring to. So I think it should link. I haven't tried it out yet though.

Hi Jerome! Sorry for the late reply, just cleaning house on missed questions:-) The answer will only be found through your App author definitively I'm afraid, and what they recommend. We do have many options, but they all must be used with an App or screen that is a Capacitive touch screen compatible. Hope this helps! Let me know if I can help you further at this link:

I have not researched this possibility. I would ask Apple if that is something one can do on this generation of IPad. Would be wonderful for those that need that to do work while traveling.

There is an iPhone/iPad app but it does cost extra. When I purchased it, I believe the cost was 4.99 on sale but I think it's 9.99. But everything syncs and I've used it numerous times with my ipad.

Haven't ever tried to use it with iphone, so can't help, sorry. Have you seen the youtube demo on the equipment? I found it helpful

Oh you can hook it up to ur iPhone/iPad :) . I done it using intua beat maker and garage band. I believe it also works with some synth app like Magellan jr. Or animoog but you'll need the USB camera adapter and a powered USB hub

I don't think you can- you need the iborescope app, which runs on iOS or Android devices. I looked, can't find the Macbook Pro (which I have) app equivalent. It does work easily with my iPhone and iPad!

Negative.There may be support for other devices in the future, but at the moment, it's Ipad only

Hi. As far as i know, the app only supports iOS (iphone) and Android phones. It can work in iPad as well.

I have used it with my ipad easily (not a 4). A light touch is helpful. Also useful with our iPhones and calculators (small & large).
