Unistellar

Do not enable notifications. It’s just spam.

I’m having some problems with connectivity. I’m using my iPad and I’ve noticed that the network will take several minutes to connect. In colder temperatures (-10c) sometimes the iPad will switch from operator to watcher. I will continue to monitor and report.

This App is designed primarily to operate the Unistellar eVscope but it also allows up to 10 people to stream video and images from the eVscope to their phones. It is very good for outreach astronomy events. The App connects to the eVscope over WiFi. Unistellar is committed to improving the App and is very open to suggestions.

The viewing catalog has errors that after messaging the support team for month can’t seem to be resolved. Given it takes days for Unistellar to respond, they probably aren’t that serious about fixing the data either.

Update: After 30 min exposure (Helix nebula) when I tried to save the pic the telescope suddenly parked itself and turned off, without saving. It happened TWO times, each time the scope will park itself and turns off!! They need to fix the app. I stopped recommending the scope to friends. I bought a competitor small scope and app and interface seems much better. Connection drops frequently. One time used ipad but after more than 30 min exposure was unable to save the pic !

I got the Odyssey Pro for my birthday present from my entire family! I’m overjoyed to finally have a telescope! Thank you so much!

The app forces auto updates too often. This latest one seems to have a a problem as now I can not use the telescope, after setup in the dark because the update fails with message try again. I’ve tried 30 times but no luck. This was fine last week!!!! Stop messing around. There does not seem to be an update this app button in the app. An update button is needed so it is possible to do that before packing everything up!

the only way to get it to run orientation is by connecting to the scope and then turning my phone off into airplane mode for a second and then turning it back on. if this doesn’t crash the app, then and only then does the prompt that lets me run telescope orientation appear. this is a $5000 telescope. i shouldn’t have to have to find this insane work around for the software everytime i want to use it. additionally the oriention is wrong about 30% of the time and i have to start the whole thing over or it will attempt to go in the opposite direction to find objects i can see with my naked eye. actively looking for a new telescope to run my astro tours because this one has let me down for over a year now. Update: Developer has commented on this post and all the other recent poor reviews asking for a bevy of information. I gave a detailed account of what I have to do to make it work and many of the other reviews express their encountered problems. With the amount of negative recent reviews developer should have all the information necessary to realize they need to make serious corrections to the UI.

Nothing works. Connecting is a nightmare Updating firmware is glitchy. It won’t do the orientation and app freezes then Can’t connect via bluetooth. It cannot calibrate it freezes. This app was rushed and clearly not ready to support a “smart product”. Returning. What a marketing gimmick.

Doesn’t connect to evsvope2. Such a waste of time and no real options manual
