User Reviews

Reviews for Gravity by Vaonis are mixed. The main drawbacks are privacy concerns over full photo library access and recurring reliability bugs (QR code failures, black screens, tracking problems, and updates that break features). Performance and feature gaps (slowness, low image resolution due to cropping, limited object tracking) further hamper use. Positive notes center on helpful tutorials, ease of use for some Hestia users, and the potential for impressive astrophotography and educational value when the system works. Overall, privacy and reliability are the dominant pain points, with room for improvement in support and updates.

Pros

Easy to use for Hestia telescope owners
Tutorials and onboarding are informative and easy to follow
Capable of impressive astrophotography when it functions (eclipse photos and deep-sky shots)
Educational value for educators and students

Cons

Requires full access to the photo library, raising privacy concerns
Frequent reliability issues: QR code does nothing, black screen, tracking problems, updates breaking features
Slow performance and limited capabilities: app slow, limited photo resolution due to cropping, inconsistent object location/tracking
Support and responsiveness concerns (poor support or unresponsive queries)
