Really like this app

I’m still learning it but what I see so far I really like. One request: Could you add Celestron 6SE to the list of owned equipment? Thanks a ton!

Response from developer

hi! happy to hear you're enjoying AstroGuide :) the Celestron 6SE is an excellent telescope, especially when paired with a great imaging camera. I had originally included a few Celestron telescope models in my "Smart Telescope" as placeholders, but since they don't have built in optics, it's not the best fit to include them in that category. I've added it for convenience, but a much broader selection of telescopes is now available in the Telescope Workshop, which lets you assemble an imaging rig by combining OTAs and Cameras to more accurately reproduce your imaging setup. This lets the app more faithfully create a Field of View simulator, and calculate other attributes of your equipment. I would be happy to help more; please reach out via email, or use the other support options listed at Https://AstroGuide.space

I’m a new astrophotographer…

… and even with my limited knowledge of the hobby, this app is incredibly helpful. Just the forecasting alone (cloud cover, dew point, lunar phase) helps me plan my evenings, but then the ability to sort objects by whether they will be a good target for my particular smart telescope (Seestar S30 Pro) lets me optimize those evenings. There’s a lot of information but it’s displayed pleasingly and with a great eye for design. Looking forward to future updates and to get even more out of this app.

Objects search page needs performance optimization

The main "Tonight" page loads just fine and scrolls great. But the moment you hit the search bar and look for objects a bunch of images load and the app slows to a crawl and becomes unusable on a 17 Pro Max.

I like the concept. I like the tonight view is very useful. I like that I can search and filter objects nicer than otherwise. But I need it to not slow down so much. I've tried all 3 settings of image fetch protection and it doesn't help.

Thank you very much for this feedback! I have been testing these areas of the app using a variety of devices, under a variety of network conditions, and have recently implemented fixes that should result in improvements. Please evaluate the latest version of the app (1.3.4), and let me know if these issues are addressed. You can contact me via the Support Url or Email address, I’m more than happy to help if needed. Clear Skies!
