Great tool that provides plenty of time and positional information. It also includes the most recent polarscope reticle. A big plus. The developer is also very kind and helpful.

Thanks to the developer. Its a top class app. I have an issue though. I'm using an neq6 and I'm in iran. The hour angle and p.scope provided by handset seems to be different with the ones on app. Any thoughts?

Great app! Saves so much faff-setting up would be a right pain without it!

The hour angle is based on a 24 hour system. It would make sense t provide a 24hour diagram.

Easy and more precise way to setup my HEQ5. Original synscan firmware calculating less precise hour angle numbers...

This is a great app. My only issue is it relys on the time on the device rather than the time provided by the GPS signal. It would be 5 stars if the developer could amend the time source to GPS to ensure its always accurate. Could this be done ? When used on different devices I get different system times so I use an app called atomic clock which takes the time signal from the GPS - so is always accurate ... maybe this feature could be incorporated Thanks

This app is awesome, only issue is with the elevation, it's seems to be off by 70m on my HTC One M8. I checked my GPS status and it is reporting correctly, other then that it's a great app, and saves from having to disconnect the GPS from the mount and connect to the computer or need a GPS mouse at all.

Great app. I was using a separate gps app and polar finder app, and that was fine. But it's great to bring all the Synscan inputs together into one screen. Top class!

The Devs replied and sure enough have fixed the GPS loop. Now to wait for clear skies. This in my opinion is a must have app for astronomy enthusiasts. Thanks for the fix team ;)

Synscan setup now requires your locations elevation in metres. Can the dev add this to the next update please? Thanks to the dev for adding the elevation. Brilliant stuff!

What can I say, it gathers the correct data for the Synscan remote, formats it correctly and has it presented appropriately for manual entry on the handset.

Wonderful app, a huge time saver. And you've incorporated the new SkyWatcher reticle! I dont know of any other Android app that has the new reticle for polar align.
