Excellent Progress – Please Keep Improving Origin!
I am very happy with the continuous improvements to Origin.
First of all, thank you for implementing dithering. This was one of the most requested features, and it has significantly improved image quality. It shows that Celestron is listening to its users and continuously enhancing the platform.
I am also looking forward to the upcoming Mosaic Mode. It will greatly expand the range of objects that can be captured and make Origin even more versatile.
One feature I would love to see in a future update is the ability to combine stacked images from multiple observing sessions. For example, if I capture the same target over several nights, it would be wonderful if the Origin app could merge those stacked sessions into a single image with the total integration time. This would make long-term astrophotography projects much easier and more enjoyable.
Thank you for continuing to improve Origin. I look forward to seeing how the platform evolves in the future.

Great telescope - app needs time-planning feature for real-world use
The Celestron Origin itself is fantastic — setup, alignment, and imaging all work beautifully. The app, however, really needs a time-shift or sky-simulation feature. Right now, the Sky View only shows what’s visible at the current time, so you can’t plan your imaging schedule ahead during daylight hours.
For many of us with partial sky views (trees, buildings, etc.), planning is essential — I need to know wh Great telescope — app needs time-planning feature for real-world use ich objects will rise into my visible area later tonight so I can build a schedule that actually runs without constant failures.
Most astronomy apps (like SkySafari or Stellarium) allow you to fast-forward time and see what will be up later. Adding this to the Celestron Origin app would make it far easier to plan productive sessions.
The orange highlighting for good targets is a great touch — please keep that, but let us preview it for any time of night, not just the current moment.
Otherwise, this system has huge potential. The scope gets a 5; the app just needs a bit more planning flexibility to match.

Great App and even greater Telescope
Works fine on MacOS
Sonoma 15.4 on MacMini M4. Works exactly as on my iPad. Window is not resizable, but U can manually switch Portrait or Landscape mode. Connected flawlessly to existing iPad connection via home WiFi network. Note that Gallery is empty (but exists of your phone or tablet) until U tell it to save on the Origin app running on your Mac.

Nul
Très honnêtement cette application est nulle…
Connexion difficile à moins de 5m, impossible de télécharger les photos sur le téléphone sans éteindre le télescope, on ne peut pas arrêter un programme ( horaire ) sans perdre la photo en cours.
On ne peut pas faire de mosaïque, on ne peut pas choisir le cadrage ou l’orientation de l’astre à observer.
En fin de prise la nuit le télescope s’arrête à la verticale et le matin il est plein de rosée 😤
Une application nulle pour un télescope à 5000€…
À côté de ça j’ai un Seestar, l’application est une merveille, prenez exemple !!!
