I've used it occasionally, mainly when showing my elderly mother in law things because she is not overly keen on squinting through an eyepiece these days.
I just use a ZWO ASI224MC connected to my Samsung tablet using the ASICAP application.
The results are pretty good in terms of views & bonus is, they are in colour...
As to tainting AP... I'm with others... whatever you want to do is up to you...
Do whatever floats your boat...
