Enjoying Easy Astronomy

I got the Gravity app along with my Hestia telescope.

It really has made backyard astronomy super easy.

The app has some really cool tricks for locating stars and when using it to take photos it already flips and rotates object like the moon and sun into the correct position.

I think they are really have a good app and it’s a great start. I’m looking forward to see what upgrades and improvements they make in the future.

Love it.

I have the Vaonis Hestia - not their most powerful telescope, I love it. The Gravity App, once you really give it a chance & spend some time with it, is great. User friendly interface & does just what I want, without annoying pop ups or steps!
