Celestron SkyPortal is a planetarium app that redefines how you experience the night sky. Explore the Solar System, 120,000 stars, over 200 star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, and dozens of asteroids, comets, and satellites—including the ISS. When connected to a compatible Celestron WiFi telescope, you can automatically point the telescope to any object and view it in detail.

The app includes time controls to animate transits and eclipses, Compass Mode for real-time sky displays, SkyAlign-based telescope control with advanced mount modeling for precise go-to pointing, and access to hundreds of object descriptions, NASA images, and over four hours of audio narration to guide your observing.

It appears that the Scope feature is no longer working so you’re no longer able to align or connect to the SkyPortal Network.

by GR*****, 2026-06-30

I’ve tried to get my telescope centered using this app by aligning it to the moon’s location, and I’m being dissatisfied by the app’s performance as when I tried to aligning the telescope through the app, the lens showed a blank sky because the telescope was offset to the right of the telescope’s direction of focus. I had to literally manually align the telescope due to this. I do have a screenshot of what I am speaking of. Finding planets took me time because of a similar scenario. It would be great if the app could make improvements with aligning the iPhone so that telescope users won’t have to turn on their battery powered laser that comes with their StarSense explorer telescopes or any other telescope of this brand.
