Great Tracker but not so much!
By Hs on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2021
The app works totally fine. I use iPhone . I had no issue for connecting and running the tracker. It was my first time using a tracker and it was kinda hard to do polar alignment so I did roughly. Because it was dark and cold in IL and didn't want to waste more time. I was able get 8 mins with 14 mm, 2 mins with 85mm lens. I think that's very good for my first try with really bad polar alignment. I studied a bit and I hope it'll be easy to find the Polaris next time lol However, I got this tracker for light weight compared to the bigger model. When you pack everything like eq base , Declination bracket, polar scope will be really heavy. It'll be just 600gr less than the bigger model in the field. My thought is either go with the star adventurer pro model or just sam mini and use with ball head for light weight. But this is a great gadget I really enjoyed it and not that difficult to use this thing. Have fun and Clear Sky!

Doesn't work!
By RDJ on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2021
Unfortunately for me this product is past it's return period. I purchased it in Aug for a trip I was supposed to take. The trip got canceled so it stayed untouched in the box until this week. When I was able to make up for the trip. I took it out, got it all hooked up, aligned, fresh high quality batteries. my lens / telescope mounted (made sure it was under the weight limit) ... and ... nothing. I finally got the power to come on, but it would not connect to my phone or iPad and if it doesn't connect, it's useless. The light would randomly go on or off. I tried an android device. At least it would connect to the WiFi but the app didn't work. I tried literally everything I could think of to get this to work, and the app was just garbage as well. So I was left just screwing around in the dark, with nothing to show for it. No way to get support now that I'm back and can't get a refund for an unused faulty product.
