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.

Hello,

About 8.7hrs of mostly dual band HA/OIII data and some RGB data, all shot with ASI294MC @600s, gain 120 and -10C. Postprocessed with APP and combined with the combine RGB tool. I finally start to get a little feel for the RGB combine tool. Final processing done in PS. Don't hesitate to give some tips/tricks, advice or things to do better and make myself better!

Thanks,

Michel

I think it's amazing! Very difficult to get any patch of background to do LP correction on though. 🙂

Thanks! Yes, I skipped the LP because on the first try it took away too much nebula.

I think you can still try it, now that you know where the background seems to be. It could, maybe, get the darker spots a little more even.
