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.
I would like to have someone look at my data to see what I should do next. Â I would like to upload the data for someone to look at it.
Could you point to what data you're talking about and what the question is?
@vincent-mod yes, is it possible to upload here directly or do I need to upload it somewhere else and point you to it?
You can see where to upload on the top right of the forum, make a directory on the server called "msamazing-data" and please describe what the issue is as I'm not seeing it here in this thread, thanks.
@vincent-mod I just updated so hopefully I did it correctly.  I am new to astrophotography and wondered what steps you  would not take with my data processing where it is now.
Will check the data first, please allow for tomorrow as it's quite late here already. 🙂 Thanks for uploading!
@vincent-mod thank you! Â No rush.
So, could you also explain what exactly you'd like to do next? What's th question you have basically?
@vincent-mod I am very new to astrophotography and don't really have a trained eye. I guess what I am asking is when someone that has been doing this a long time looks at my image, is there anything that would make it better? Â Maybe it is fine as it is. Â I am really just trying to learn if there is any way that I should improve it.
Ah, got it. So looking at your data, it's actually looking really good already! Impressive for someone who's just beginning even. You may be able to even the background out a bit more using the Light Pollution tool, but other than that, just gather more data to get more signal etc and you'll be fine. This result is already really nice.
