Hello and welcome to SGL. Yes SkyPortal can automatically align your Celestron mount if it has StarSense and a SkyPortal wifi module

Hi, this has been discussed here before but I am struggling, I set my mount (AVX) to North and turn on the SkyPortal I then connect and align but the scope moves in the wrong direction, why? I have checked the settings for my location and everything seems to be alright. Even when I ask to go back to home,  the scope is invariably pointing to anything but home, I line up both sets of marks before I begin. I must be doing something wrong. I have looked for definitive instructions but they all seem to just say what SkyPortal can do. Maybe the setting up is easy but I must have something set wrong. Can anyone help please?
