AstroShader

Unfortunately, the application stopped working on the first generation iPhone SE (2016), please fix it if possible.

This app is the greatest free astrophotography on the market by far. The UI is easy, and it takes amazing photos when used right. One issue. The thing crashes when taking long (like 40 sec+) exposures. After a certain amount of time it just kinda quits. Still an amazing app, and I would absolutely recommend to others!

In my opinion I think that it is missing some more functions. Such as automatic white balance, iso, and exposure time. If you could make it set the white balance by what filter you are using. Also the app really need’s better editing and the ability to stack photos manually and automatically aligned stacking. But this is a very good app for of what it is and it has so much potential. Thank you for reading and please make these features!

There doesn't seem to be a way merge the stacked photos. The point of taking multiple pictures in low light, which is a key feature in this app, is to combine them into a single picture to multiply the light gathered by several images.

Honestly if you combined this app with a plate solver like astrometry.net has this would be the best astrophotography app by far. You’d be able to see where you are and where your target is without 2 hours of being lost, especially in high bortle skies. Regardless this app is amazing for astrophotography and is so much better than the other subscription needing ones. Only nightcap is a real competitor but I feel it works better outside the telescope.

I really dearly ask you that yall work more towards makeing this app like a stacking software such as registaxx. It could allow me to stack and process space objects the auto align feature works well but please you will be a one of a kind app if you take that path towards becomeing a software for stacking and processing images. And I can assure many others will be looking for a app of this style. Also could you allow videos to be imported from camera roll to be aligned and stacked that would be very helpful even if all this becomes payware I will get it in a heartbeat please consider this! Thank you~ a loving supporter.

I used this on my iPhone X and got some pretty impressive photos for what it was, but I upgraded to the 15 Pro and now the app crashes whenever I start it.

This app is crazy good at Astro images with a phone mount on a telescope. And for free it’s absolutely worth the 5 stars. A way to save each frame to camera roll as they are taken would be great but I can’t complain at all about the app in its current form

Very cool app but operability with the Apple Watch would make framing and triggering a lot more convenient.

the app is simple and straightforward. the ui is easy to navigate and it shows you the important stuff without obstructing the viewfinder. the first few tries have worked extremely well on my 14PM, with andromeda galaxy visible in a bortle 6 area, but recently, the images have become blurry and low res. the first attempt got me 12MP but now i get a resolution of some 192x256, which isnt even 1MP. it happened when i turned on pixel binning and left the phone outside for about 10 mins in subzero (34F) temperatures. pls fix this since im really looking forward to seeing this app succeed
