ZWO, please make 2.3.3 available for us on your website. Fortunately I I stopped one tablet and my phone from upgrading, but not everybody here is so lucky. And don't jump so fast on these upgrades! Continue to pay attention to people's reports in the beta chats. For people who don't want to test beta, which is what you're doing to them now, at least you could have two parallel releases that we could choose to run if we opt to download from your website. At a bare minimum, consider doing that now and in the future. Please don't ignore these posts.

I suggest keeping 2.3.3 as a stable release, then post 2.4 as your development release until it reaches stable and you move on to 2.5. Then 2.4.x can hopefully be the stable tried and true release.

Not fixed. 2.4 tried to do a meridian flip tonight 2 hours away from the meridian. This issue is a 3 alarm fire that really needs to be fixed.
Log sent.

It happens to me too. Random meridian shift. I hope it gets fixed soon.

Please add support to the canon r8. Many people have been waiting for the canon r8 to be supported but now have gone to different software and sold your products (and soon without an update I will too due to a lack of support for this camera.) thank you

9Ej7KtYy How ZWO responds to this headache they've created will probably say a lot about the future of the ASIair product line!

R0k9pZfT I agree. Seems like there will be some more items on eBay very shortly.

It updated automatically. It works smoothly, and there are some interesting improvements to the celestial map.
The changes to the main interface are a bit confusing at first, but they provide improved information.

I've noticed a slight improvement in the Wi-Fi transfer rate.

Thanks for your work.

Dear ZWO Support Team!

Yesterday I upgraded to 2.4 version (Firmware 12.29).

I totallay agreed with 6h3g399i and azskyguy.
The PA (Polar Aligment) is not work on my side too.
On the PA I can't change from "Bin2" to other Bin.
Another problem on PA is the maximum exposure time is 3 sec only.
On previous firmware On the PA maximum exposure time was 10 sec.
Sometimes the sky is little bit cloudy, the 5-10 sec exposure time is very useful for Polar Aligment.

I used: ASI 585 MC as Main camera, and ASI 220 MM is guide camera and I have ASI AIR Plus (256 GB).
I sent the Log via bug report.

Could you please make available the previous version, until you fix the actual?
I can't use my ASI AIR with this 2.4 version (Firmware 12.29).

Thank you!

Lots of bugs, the Flats don't display correctly, the display on the tablet is bad, it's unusable, I've uninstalled and installed the previous version.

Quick feedback.

Not a big fan of the new routines for finding and selecting objects. But it does work.
On one setup (749mm focal length) PA worked fine. On another, no go. It would not plate solve for initial PA with a 300mm focal length (set by me and then reset by the software when I set the focal length to zero, suggesting it did some form of plate solve to discern the focal length). No PA...no imaging last night. Really need PA to be bullet proof. Lots of other stuff can be worked around. Not PA.

PMTeam@ZWO

challiwe What PA method do you use? Two-point polar or all-sky polar?

Has anybody managed to successfully do an All Sky PA on any 2.4 version of the ASIAIR app?

I have been trying to use 2.4.x as they are released but no v2.4.x has ever PA'd successfully. When I revert to 2.3.2 from 04/14/25 the ASIAIR works as usual -perfectly- data capture and guiding on my fully optioned ASIAIR just works great.

This is on a Losmandy G11G with Gemini 2 mini running L6.12 firmware over Ethernet.

Where would I find new minor releases 2.4.X ? In the App Stores I only get 2.4.

Giancagero

chiplouie I performed the All Sky PA without any issue. I'm using Asiair plus, Askar FRA500 (with narrowband filter), ASI 2600MC PRO and ZWO AM5N.

plate solve worked for me when i unchecked the 'New Plate Solve'. But is it the right way or the right direction?
totally agree with @R0k9pZfT that you keep the previous stable version available for use always. troubleshooting all this in rare clear nights is very frustrating. Please address this with having the option to keep the last stable release on mobile devices.

In addition to my previous four issues, tonight the session started with another problem during focussing. I left last night at focus position 7700. Tonight it showed 0000 and pressing the focus button the focuser went 7700 steps further out, so completely out of focus. I had to refocus from the start on Vega.

This is the worst ASIAIR release ZWO put out EVER, and it makes it much worse that there is no reaction at all by them in this forum.

I have an old release (2.2.2) accidently sitting on my tablet and I try to use it by first uninstalling 2.4 and then installing 2.2.2. It is working somehow, though it is complaining that I should use the newer release.

It is also a disaster that releases cannot be reverted.

What happened to the shutdown option at the end of a plan?

The 2.4 release isn't usable. Very disappointed that more testing wasn't done on this build. How do I step back to 2.3.x?

From the beta, my basic instructions.

Except don't reinstall from the app store and install your older version.
