Thank You!

Thank you so much Jose R. Torres for creating these detailed and beautiful maps and making them available free. Also many thanks to Norbert Schmidt for developing this very useful app.

The maps are very detailed and easy to use. I really appreciate the switch to red for night vision. Mostly though the fact that I can flip the map inverted for my Newtonian and flip right to left for my refactor or Maksutov telescopes is the best part. This enables me to duplicate the field I am seeing in the eyepiece and compare it with the map field. The fact that the maps are detailed enough makes this all work.

The app works smoothly easily and is not glitchy making this a solid and dependable package I enjoy using with one of the most detailed star atlases available.

Excellent App!

The Triatlas is one of my favorite sky atlases. I like having the app so I only need to print the 50 or so pages of the "A" set, and I can access the other two sets when I am outside with my telescope. I really enjoy being able to turn the brightness way down and turn on red on black to preserve night vision. After using it, I tend to wait a while before starting a new sketch for my eyes to get rid of the faint light.
