This is cool! I love your photos and best target finders.

I made a similar app for planning astrophotography sessions just last week. Great minds think alike.

Can your share the project source code on Github?

Looks nice, easy to use. Though it wasn't clear at first that I had to select "Discovery Mode" to get anything more than just well-known objects. I still got only 10 objects. I'm surprised that the Equipment section doesn't include diameter and maybe telescope type, also something about camera sensitivity.
