I sometimes use SkySafari on my phone to control the mount, but most often to cross-reference catalogue numbers of objects. SkySafari usually doesn't contain all of an object's catalogue designations but most of them, and is useful to translate to and from SynScan's designations.
For direct RA/Dec GOTO you need to enter the coordinates as user-defined object. You can store up to 25 of them. Unfortunately, you can only refer to them by number (1...25) later on.
