Polar Scope Align for Positive User Reviews
✓ Fantastic app!The creators of this app certainly have an eye for detail! Each reticle style has excellent instructions for setting up. This really helps alignment be beginner friendly!.Version: 6.5
✓ Excellent appThis is an easy to use and feature rich app that no visual astronomer or astro photographer with an equatorial mount should be without. The reticule zoom feature is a must have for super accurate polar alignment if you're planning on doing photography at longer focal lengths. Layout is clear and comprehensive. It even provides a means of fairly accurately aligning with Polaris during the daytime .. and it works!.Version: 5.3
✓ Really useful!Go to app for polar scope alignment. Easy to use and contains lots of polar scopes..Version: 3.7

✓ Great appVery useful in polar aligning my telescope !.Version: 4.2
✓ Excellent appThis app is great and I trust it’s accuracy..Version: 6.2
✓ INDISPENSABLE!!This is my go to app for not only planning an observation session but also helping me setting up my telescope. Polar Align Pro has so many features. It’s amazing that Dimitrios has managed to pack everything you need into this one app. Not only moon information, but deep sky catalogs, are at your fingertips. There is even a built in “Astro” calculator for anything you can imagine you may want. The app also has weather and observing info to help me determine if I should set up my scope or not. Add to all this: in my mind the most responsive developer on the App Store. Dimitrios has never let me down and has an answer for any question you may have. The best out there - and worth many times more than the asking price..Version: 4.9
✓ WorksVery handy and accurate..Version: 6.5
✓ Great App, Lots of Features/OptionsThis has so many polar scopes in its database from Skywatcher to Takahashi, all the way to Astro Physics RAPAS, Incredibly Helpful. Plus it has an option to be red so as to not ruin your night vision.. But there’s a mega ton of other features, options, help manuals that this app provides. The Absolutely Incredible Gigantic amount OF WORK & EFFORT that went into this App is obvious. Awesome program and I couldn’t ask for it to be any better!!! Thank you!! Would definitely Recommend 10/10.Version: 6.2
✓ Great app!Not only does this app help me align my Skywatcher Star Adventurer motorized mount, but it also has a very accurate clock with seconds (which is lacking in the default iOS clock). This is essential to time ISS transits of the moon & sun...so glad it also has this feature! Keep up the good work..Version: 3.9
✓ This app is really useful et well designI use it to setup my scope and it does the job, it's accurate, easy to use. Thanks Dimitrios!.Version: 3.3

✓ Great App!Really helped me get improved polar alignment!.Version: 3.9
✓ Finally aligned perfectly with a few extra steps.If you are not properly polar aligned everything else fails. I had a hard time doing this with my polar scope before I found this app. Open the app, pick your location and it will show you where Polaris is supposed to be. I have the EQR-6 pro mount with a polar scope so i used the alt and azimuth bolts to match it with this app. 2 Star aligned, then alignment polar which gives you Mel and maz errors then adjust according to the hand controller. I did this a few times and now my errors read 000’00”00. First time ever! I can take 5 minute exposures without a guide scope..Version: 5.4
✓ SuperThat's a app what you need if you do have a telescope I think from my point this app is the best one on appstore love the future no adds and the best think is FREE.Version: 4.6
✓ Great AppDoes what it says on the tin. No fuss, no distractions. Highly recommended..Version: 6.5

✓ Polar Scope AlignReally great app. Very helpful with set up. Many thanks..Version: 3.9
✓ Accurate Polar Alignment ToolI used this for a couple of years when I was living in the northern hemisphere. Spent countless nights under the stars using my tracker and if it wasn’t for this app, I wouldn’t of been able to track from 3-15 minutes getting the best quality possible. Would definitely recommend. Cheers.Version: 5.0
✓ Very usefulIf you’re a scope user, you may find this very handy, it’s quick and easy and features a handy red/night mode to help with night vision..Version: 5.0
✓ Great nicheGreat reference tool for quick polar alignment. Can use as is for short sessions or refine further with other tools after using this app..Version: 3.8
✓ Best app for astrophotographersI recommend this app to beginners and also professional astrophotographers and skywatchers. Will help you to get precisely polar alignment..Version: 6.5
✓ So good.This nails Sigma Octans nicely..Version: 6.5
✓ Best polar alignment appI've tried others and they have problems with location and crashing. This app works perfect every time and being able to select the view through your own scope makes it easier then ever to polar align..Version: 2.6
✓ Nice effect but…It’s not accurate. Wish it worked better but limitations with the phone and inherent problems like the mount being made of metal. The accuracy is not reliable. Alignment Changes every time I try to align with this app. due to the steel on my mount or tripod..Version: 6.2
✓ Top Polar AlignExcellent app and Personal attention from Designer to help me..Version: 6.2
✓ Cell tower vs gpsHas a feature to ignore the use of cell towers and use only gps for location..Version: 5.0
✓ Awesome App. GET IT! You’ll love itThis app is great for assisting in polar aligning your telescope. It can help you in levelling your mount, getting you close to polar alignment in the middle of the day and very accurate positioning of polar alignment at night. Has a lot of really good features and works great. 🔭GET IT, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED 🔭.Version: 4.7
✓ Great for astrophotography and eclipse prediction!I have been using this app whenever I’ve been doing astrophotography sessions with my Star Adventurer. With the new eclipse simulation tool it was also a great aid to planning a family eclipse 2024 road trip! Thanks!.Version: 6.7
✓ Just BrilliantI love this app, and the fact that even the free version has so many features without all the annoying popup ads. A very well built app & a must have tool..Version: 3.9
✓ ExcellentWorks perfectly and ideal for anyone using the Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer..Version: 4.3
✓ Great appLove this app for aligning my scope. Always quick and easy..Version: 3.3
✓ Great appVery helpful for setting up the scope and getting accurate polar alignment..Version: 4.5
✓ This is greatGreat app -- it works 👍.Version: 3.5
✓ Great help when polar aligningThis app is very easy and straightforward. When you begin your polar alignment just open the app and it tells you, based on your latitude and time of day, where Polaris needs to be in the reticule. Just that simple..Version: 6.6
✓ Awesome polar scope must have.Exactly as the title states.....Version: 3.6
✓ Use It Every SessionI have been using this app to roughly polar align my mount at the beginning of every astrophotography imaging session for over a year. After this I fine-tune my alignment with SharpCap, and I have found that I am very rarely over 5 arc-minutes out of alignment using this app and usually under 2. The app also conveniently displays all time and location data needed for GoTo mounts. And yes there are zero popup ads! This app is a huge timesaver for my AP setup routine and I can’t recommend it highly enough..Version: 6.0
✓ Makes Alignment Less DauntingPolar alignment used to be the bane of my life and I’d often skip viewing as I dreaded it so much. Since being recommended this app it’s not only made the whole process much easier, it’s also given me a better insight into the workings of my mount, so much so that the app has become a reference tool to double check my alignment rather than being the guiding principle. I still use it every time I align. The display is clear and concise, every function explained and the instructions are way to understand and follow..Version: 6.5
✓ EasyWorks a treat, and it free..Version: 4.3
✓ Very handy for Aussie backyard astronomy.Useful for aligning your polar scope for astrophotographers..Version: 4.9
✓ Great!Super accurate and it’s free..Version: 6.1
✓ ExcellentI use this app with my iOptron Skytracker and it gets me on target every time. I use a Manfrotto 410 under the Skytracker to really dial Polaris in right where the app says to and I have shot many frames at everything from 16mm to 300mm with excellent results. The more careful I am the better... but I've shot even up to a minute or more at 300mm and 3+ minutes at 16mm with minimal tracking error if I really get close. This app plus the level on the iPhone makes for the perfect setup kit for the SkyTracker--even in the dark. An absolute must have for us Astro guys..Version: 3.4
✓ Best Polar Alignment AppWhen I found out that the recent solar eclipse was not going to be total at my observatory, I had to shoot closer to my home. I used this app to align my old C8 the night before (with no polar scope). It was so accurate that it kept the sun centered for over 5 hours. I then discovered that it had a reticle for my G11 Gemini permanently mounted at my observatory. Now it's aligned better than I was able to get by drift aligning. Works great on my iPad too. Thanks for a great and useful app. Steve Foster.Version: 3.6
✓ GoodGood.Version: 4.9
✓ Excellent polar alignment toolAs the title quick and say to use..Version: 5.1
✓ Ps AlignBrilliant very easy to use app. Easy to understand and of course an essential for me!.Version: 4.6
✓ Super helpfulWith this app I'm able to get a much more precise polar alignment than I would just eyeballing it. This was a direct contributor to getting 1 minute subs unguided on a recent imaging session..Version: 3.6
✓ ExcellentVery detailed, great instructions. First class software engineering.Version: 6.4
✓ Highly recommendedExcellent tool and with red filter 🤩.Version: 6.2
✓ Very clever and usefulThoughtfully designed app packed with unexpected and useful features. Really surprising depth for a free app like this, and the inclusion of tips for getting more accurate polar alignment out of old-fashioned Celestron/Skywatcher/Orion alignment scopes is extremely helpful. The battery saving features with the temporary "force GPS" mode is extremely clever. Also much better night vision friendly app design than even a lot of much more expensive astronomy apps. Kudos on every front..Version: 6.5
✓ Best free polar alignment tool!Always accurate and gets the job done with no added fluff or things to get in your way. I really like that it can geolocate to get exact polar alignment for your area!.Version: 4.9

✓ Brilliant appThis is a great utility app. I’ve used it to set up my telescope now for many astronomy sessions. Always works perfect.Version: 4.4
✓ Great App for my Advanced VXThe app works great alongside my polarscope to help me align my advanced vx mount. I Am able to get 90 second exposures without any star trailing! The app also gives time and location to help with set up!.Version: 2.8
✓ Amazing Reticle OptionsThis is one of the few apps I’ve found the a ton of options for reticles. Has all the mounts you can think of..Version: 6.2
✓ So happy this app existsI have a 34 yo Meade scope that used a small rotating card to help polar align the scope. That card became useless by 2000 and I then struggled to polar align my scope. A friend showed me this app and I was surprised to see my scopes viewfinder was one of the options. I can now easily polar align the scope again. This app is fantastic. I hope it’s stays around for a long time. Thanks again..Version: 5.6
✓ Perfect AppI really like being able to get my specific reticule for my mount...SWEQ6. Works well and is accurate. The in,y thing I DESPISE is that I use this in my iPad and Goggle places their stupid ads right at the bottom which covers up an apps information window. That is why I took off one star..Version: 3.3

✓ Good appDoes the job well..Version: 3.4

This app is very accurate. It also has instructions to help you align your polar scope to make your setup accurate..Version: 4.6
✓ DwightI use this app every time I set up my equipment. I have it on all my devices (3). Since I have four mounts all with a different reticle, being able to select that particular reticle is excellent. I have nothing negative to say about this app. If you use equatorial mounts, this is indispensible..Version: 6.1
