Great, but is very glitchy.

Hello. I like the app, and the UI. Everything works, I also really love the guider tab, where it actually shows you the guide camera view. It’s much cooler and nicer then using a Remote Desktop software. But I rated it three stars because the connecting is very irritating. When I get it to connect, it’s great! But when I disconnect, it’s very hard to connect again. So basically everything else is amazing except actually connecting.. please fix!!!

Super Ergänzung zu N.I.N.A

Ideal für die Remote Steuerung von N.I.N.A vom iPad oder iPhone aus. Intuitives und gut durchdachtes Bedienkonzept. Hohe Dynamik bei der Weiterentwicklung.

Vielen Dank an die Entwickler!
