Nice scope

Liking the telescope so far. Was able to see Jupiter and some of it's moons. Nice view of the moon. Just need to get the moon filter, cause it was full moon and very bright. Still haven't been able to get the app going. Aligned phone, but app says that it cant find the telescope when attempting to auto align. Little bit of a hassle, but still love the telescope....

Great beginner telescope. I was able to view Jupiter and it’s 4 moons, and Saturn. Invest in additional eye pieces. Can get very shaky. Requires patience

This was very easy for me to put together. Haven’t had a chance to use it yet because of the weather plus I’ve got to go online and download the app to use with my phone. Always wanted one <3

It may be user error, but everything I have tried does not work. I am unable to get the lense to show right side up. Everything is upside down.
