AstroOcular vs Zenith Annotation

AstroOcular is a focused camera app for recording the Moon, planets, and observations through a telescope eyepiece. The app opens straight into the camera, avoids automatic lens switching by using physical rear cameras when available, and provides a visual guide to help center the iPhone on the eyepiece. Key features: - Photo and video capture through a telescope eyepiece - Physical rear lens selection - Automatic alignment guide and manual reticle fallback - Timer to reduce shake - Pro controls for zoom, focus, exposure, ISO, white balance, resolution, and FPS - Saves locally to the Photos library - No ads, analytics, purchases, or backend Video audio is off by default and microphone permission is requested only if you enable audio.

Study and present your astronomical images on iPhone and iPad. Zenith Annotation brings image import, astrometry, annotations, and presentation tools together in a guided workflow. Explore the field • Open the images you choose from Photos or Files, including TIFF and TIF images. • Solve a field online when you request it and agree to send a working copy. • Browse catalogs and review object and session details. Prepare your annotations • Organize layers, labels, data, and visual styles. • Keep project progress on your device. • Preserve the original file: online solving uses a reduced grayscale copy, not the original. Present your work • Design carousels with editable text, charts, palettes, and animations. • Arrange images and text in collages. • Export a result to save or share yourself. Online solving requires a connection and your explicit action. For this feature, the app sends Astrometry.net a reduced grayscale copy of up to 2048 pixels without EXIF metadata. Zenith Annotation does not transmit the original file or publish your images to social networks.
