4. StarGO and SkySafari
The StarGO Control System may be easily operated by the SkySafari application running
on Macintosh computers and Android and iOS based tablets and smartphones.
As described earlier, Apple mobile devices (iPad and iPhone) can be connected only via
WiFi, whereas Android devices can be connected with both Bluetooth and WiFi.
This application cannot be used with a Windows PC because SkySafari is not yet available
for this operating system.
The Mac connections to the StarGO via Bluetooth and WiFi have been described in the
previous sections 3.8.2 and 3.8.4 respectively.
The Android connection via Bluetooth is described in the following sections 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
respectively. The connection of iOS devices is described in section 4.1.3.
Once the connection has been established, the operational mode is similar for all the
devices described previously in this manual.
4.1 Mobile device connection via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

This operation can be easily done following these simple steps (the figures may be slightly
different in various Android devices):
