- agree with straightthrough finders, I think you hit the nail on the head with that one!
- Also, handset replacement phone apps (for wifi dongles). While you are looking through the the scope trying to align or center a target, you have no idea where the arrow keys are under your fingers.
One major brand of wifi device's control app in particular, on iPhone and iPad won't run in background and won't let you use useful apps such as SkySafari on the same device. Meaning, unless you buy a 2nd phone or tablet, then in the end all you have is a substandard handset replacement that has no physical feedback and drops connections when the phone goes to sleep.
