Skysafari 6 Pro on 50% promo

[Stu]

Just had an email saying this is on 50% promo currently so worth checking it out if interested in the Pro version.

I saw this too Stu. Do you know roughly what it gives over the free version and is it worth it? If I wanted to add push-to with a dsc to my dob using something like the Nexus II would I need the pro version?

Plus is likely all you will need for that Mark, it lists scope control under this version. I just enjoy Pro because of the additional databases, not because I can see the stars or objects but I enjoy just having them available, sometimes I can find objects that people are struggling to identify.

Thanks Stu- I figured that even though £20 is more than I’ve ever spent on an app before, I couldn’t get much anywhere near as useful in this hobby for that price (a £20 ep wouldn’t be up to much 😉) so I went for Pro! 😊

Will have to wait a bit before I can try it though 😳😂 

 

On a a separate note, do you know if there’s a way to better align the AR view? In the basic version it never seems to quite align with reality 🤔 On another app called SkyView lite there’s a view calibration widget that you can manually slide the view to align it but I can’t find anything like that in SkySafari
