Sorry Jove I just was your post.

I like both programs in different ways. I find cedar much easier to set up. I also think it’s faster. It has a handy aiming app which makes manual knobs almost redundant. Skysolve has the advantage that it runs like an encoder based program on SkySafari so you get those handy arrows that tell you which way to move the telescope. You can do something similar in cedar by jumping into a web based app but your eyes get hit with bright light in the process. Interestingly Skysolve will run on my 10 year old iPads quite well. Cedar will not. Skysolve I find needs a better quality lens.

Both programs are free so I would suggest trying both.

Hope that answers your question.

Rod.
