June 24 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta46 has been released !

Improved internal memory configuration (lower ! memory usage), fixed beta45 startup issue, fixed Set Save Directory & 2-panel mosaics.

May 27 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta45 has been released !

Fully Multi-Threaded LNC, many improvements for the registration engine, platform upgrade, and further tuning of internal memory consumption and memory release back to OS.

Apr 14 2026: Google Pay, Apple Pay & WeChat Pay added as payment options

Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual

We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.

Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

M42 15x120s 30x60s 30x30s 50x10s 50x4s

Captured December 2019.

Equipment: Celestron AVX mount, Altair 66ED refractor, 0.8x reducer, Altair 183C camera.

Software: SharpCap 3.2, FITS Liberator, APP, GIMP 2.10.

15x120s, 30x60s, 30x30s, 50x10s, 50x4s

20 darks, 100 bias, 100 flats for each exposure set.

I had been experimenting with HDR techniques using FOTOXX on Linux.  As an experiment, I loaded the multi exposures into APP as a multi-session and here is the result.
