I don't yet have any South Hemisphere testers, but this is how the current beta works:

- You get a list of recommended bright stars that are above your horizon and not far off the CP (there is a button to let you use any Mag 5.0 or brighter star though).

- In the example, Atria was selected, so you move your mount to make Atria centered in your polar scope (or pointed by your alignment Laser if you have something like the MSM rotator instead).

- Hitting "Calibrate" when Atria is centered in your polar scope (and probably not centered on the uncalibrated app), gives the app a reference point to adjust the compass/gyro, so it can guide you to the Celestial Pole using your altitude/azimuth adjustments.

Edit: Hmm, images show inline in my preview, but not after posting. Not sure what I do wrong.
