AstroEdit - Simple and Quick App Reviews

I have always loved looking at the moon and stars. But my pictures never looked good. I tried different ways on my iPhone and used different apps. This is the first time I could actually see the moon in my photo naturally. Thanks for the great app.

Latest update has caused weird red banding in all images I try to edit. iPhone 12 Pro Max iOS 17.7.1

Astroedit does a great job at processing the Seestar images right off the jpeg without needing to fire up Startools, Siril, or Pixinsight. Easy and intuitive. The developer really listens to comments: as most of my Seestar work is on an older ipad mini with only 2 Gb of ram, it was crashing often and sometimes not even recognizing the jpeg. They made some tweaks and now I can utilize the app more effectively. It does work well with my newer iPhone so I can only assume it works well with any

Each update has improved the app. Initially gradient tool didn’t work and now it is effective. Being able to work on stars and starless image separately on the iPad is wonderful. Unfortunately the oval tool doesn’t seem to do anything. The users guide states it was trained on Seestar images. I have a Dwarf2 but I wouldn’t think that would make a difference. Would hope oval tool gets fixed. Would be nice to see a contrast tool and HDR.

Buggy app locks up frequently. Results aren’t much different from the iPhone photo editor. I assumed the app analyzed the Seestar S50 photo and was one step processing but it’s not.

Good Work. Hope you keep updating. I use a dwarf mini

I really want to make Astroedit my primary post-processing app for Seestar images, but as it stands it works only with pictures saved to Apple Photos, and that is a major problem, since they are only jpegs. When I try to open files they are all grayed out. Two emails to the contact address have received no reply, and that is very disappointing.

I’m just getting started in basic Astro photography. I don’t need or want anything fancy. I just want to clean up my images. This application allows me to quickly and easily do just that. Its minimalistic approach makes it easy for a beginner like me to grasp. I’m not overwhelmed with menu after menu of options. It sticks to the basics and does them very well. It allows me to clean-up my images resulting in much improved image quality. Definitely recommend!

AstroEdit 2.11 is a game-changer for astrophotography editing on iOS. The addition of real machine-learning AI denoise takes this app to a whole new level, producing excellent results with minimal effort. And the refined user interface makes using the app very intuitive. Someone with no astrophotography experience will find they can make their Seestar images pop and turn into something they’re eager to share. Experienced astrophotographers will feel right at home with tools they’re used to using

The app is very good for it’s intended use but crashes with high(er) resolution (6000x6000=36MP) jpeg pictures taken with a 136mm/F2 camera lens and a ZWO ASI533MC Pro camera.

New behavior…this app crashes immediately with my IPad Pro 2017. Update: the recent new version seems to have ended this problem. Before, I didn’t get as far as opening an image. When I say it crashed immediately, that’s what I meant, before I could do anything.

Yong Chang Loh, please reply to my requests for help opening .fit files. All files are grayed out and I can only open the jpegs saved in Apple Photos. This seriously decreases the usefulness of the app.
