This app is the IO-Navigator-Mobile app (with telescope connection via the IO-ScopeInTheBox platform).
The devices of the IO-ScopeInTheBox platform will soon be available in stores or via our website (https://io-astronomie.de). Among other things, this app exists for its use.
This app offers you the most important components you need to find your way in the starry sky.
The sky is displayed in a very nice 360 degree view.
You can operate the app easily using 4 buttons at the top left. The best way to use the app is to hold the respective device with both hands and use your thumbs to interact with the interface. We have placed great value on very good usability!
We limit ourselves to about 1200 objects and not to 30000 or more. For most of these objects, we have created descriptive texts by hand over the years, which show very interesting details about the celestial objects.
The coordinates of the 7 planets and Pluto are also included.
You will NOT be bothered with any ads. This app is a version of our PC program IO-Navigator-PC adapted to mobile devices.
You can therefore move the sky section either by finger touch (sliding) or by using the direction buttons that you see on the screen (the former must be activated in the settings).
With the button for the astro types, you can set which types of
astroobject types you would like to see. You can also save in profiles which astro object types should be displayed. The profiles can be created very easily and then replaced if necessary.
The brightnesses of all objects are given in logarithmic size classes. According to the current literature, we differentiate between surface brightness, point-precise brightness and variable brightness.
The names of the objects are also given in accordance with current specialist literature. Here we differentiate between Flamsteed, Bayer, NGC, Messier and spoken plain text names (e.g. Andromeda galaxy, M31).
If objects are really missing, you can create them later at any time. One type of astro object is the user-defined objects.
Do you perhaps own a so-called GOTO telescope made by Mea*de, Celle*stron or Sky*watcher?
Are you perhaps interested in controlling this with our app via WLAN and not having to use a cable or your hand box as before?
This is possible via our IO-Goto-Wlan-Box, which makes it possible to use such wired telescopes via WLAN.
Objects can be selected and controlled by finger touch.
In addition to the possibility of using our IO-Wlan-Box, it is also possible with this app to control our IO-Push-To-Box and the IO-Magnetic-Rotator-Push-To technology.
In both cases, the telescope movement can be tracked by a crosshair on the screen. If the crosshairs are at the position of a certain object on the star map, then this object is also visible in the telescope.
Further information on all technologies can be found on our website at https://io-astronomie.de.
The app provides you with a kind of star tours in connection with the use of the telescope.
You can assign objects to a tour by touch and then have them controlled by your telescope using the play button.
In addition, this app provides predefined star tours for different seasons. These contain very interesting descriptions that explain the background to the objects contained therein.
Are you perhaps interested in our PC version, the IO-Navigator-PC (for PC and notebook or laptop)?
Incidentally, the above technologies can also be used here.
