  In the meantime SynScan Pro 2.0.12 is available. It runs perfect with the WiFi-dongle and also under Android 13. -> Versions up to 2.0.6 didn't run with the WIFI dongle.

  Finally upgraded to SynScan Pro 2.0.12 today. They still haven't fixed the WiFi connection timeout issue I've been suffering through.

  I have:

  Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
  Android 12/OneUI 4.1.1
  SynScan Pro 2.0.12

  What happens is my S22 Ultra will connect to the adhoc WiFi on either my SkyQuest XX12G or my friend's SkyWatcher SynScan Dob and stay connected no problem. The SynScan App however will disconnect after 15 minutes when the SynScan App is placed in the background. You can set your watch to it. It really messes with the enjoyment of Scope Control that SkySafari offers. The only way to use SkySafari 7 Pro for scope control is to bring the SynScan app to the foreground in intervals of less than 15 minutes or the scope connection will be lost.

  Forget about using the two apps together for an imaging session. It's just too much of a hassle.

  SkyWatcher is not being of any help here and I'm beginning to wonder if anyone is even trying to fix this. It's been an issue for almost 9 months and counting......
