How to Manually Move the Telescope (Joystick)?

Your telescope can be manually moved with an in-app joystick. For example, this allows you to target a specific part of the night sky with visible stars to start the orientation process.

Go to the observation page to access the Move mode.

Once your telescope is connected to the app, you can reach the observation page from the Homepage.

Tap on the "Watch" button to start observing.

The observation page can also be reached from the Catalog, Science, and Gallery pages. A "Watch" button is at the bottom right of each page.
