Sometimes works
I use this with a StarHunter and it only sometimes works. There is no feedback that it is connected. The buttons don’t even fit on the screen. If I get version info from it over WiFi that doesn’t mean the buttons will have any response or result. Their handsets work great, but phones are what people use now.
IOptron makes great hardware that I have been using for years, but their apps are poor. Since they are basically WiFi or USB devices it should be easy to write software that works. Especially in the modern world of software development. If they published their APIs, perhaps some open source users could dig and start writing better software.

What happened? Useless app now.
I have an HAE29EC. A previous version allowed me to control the app with my iPhone or iPad, using the built-in Wi-Fi network. It would feed date time and location to the mount.
After app update, the app does not even recognize the amount when it is connected to it via the mount’s Wi-Fi, none of the features are available, half the prompts are in Chinese, and I can’t find a single useful function in this app.
Please take this complete trash off the App Store and restore the previous useful version… Show it as a version update so we can regain usefulness.

Schrott App
Diese App ist einfach nur Müll.
Wenn keine Besserung eintrifft bleibt mir nur eines übrig die Montierung zu verkaufen.
Danke Ioptron😩

Katastrophe
Diese Version ist vollkommen für den Müll. Es ist nicht mehr möglich eine Verbindung zur Handsteuerung herzustellen. Mit der alten Version lief alles problemlos, habe jetzt seit längerem wieder versucht direkt ohne die Zwo Kamera mit dem Commander zu arbeiten. Enttäuschend!!
Update on 11/4/2025 not working
iPhone 13 And IOS 18.6.2 and this useful App Is o longer working. When it starts it shows the arrow controls but settings and all the other buttons are not working. I can’t control my mount anymore. This is the worst update in the history of smartphone updates. A totally useless App. Makes me ditch ioptron altogether. Pity because the mechanicsn of the mount is very good but without a good software is like running a PC with DOS.
