Hi all,

I've been working on an iDevice app for a few months now with the aim to benefit both members of the IIS community and other amateur astronomers with the alignment of any Alt/Az computerised mounted scope (though it may also be of use to help those with EQ type mounts).

It is now live on the app store for both iPhone and iPad (and should work on iPods) iOS 4.0.1 and greater.

It uses the current location and time of the iDevice to determine a list of "Star Sets" that are ordered by their angular distance from the Zenith point along with their angular separation.

Have a look on the app store (search for "Altitude Azimuth Alignment" or "sibimon") for a complete description and screenshots.

PS: I got the ok from Mike to make this post.

Cheers,
Simon
