Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! StillGood AP is perfect for remote observatories. As long as your imaging computer has internet access, you'll receive alerts no matter where you are. Many users monitor equipment hundreds of miles away.
The Pro plan includes 40 SMS and 80 email alerts per 12-hour period. This is more than enough for typical imaging sessions. Alerts have intelligent cooldown periods to prevent spam while keeping you informed.
Intelligent cooldowns prevent alert spam by limiting how often you're notified about the same issue. After sending an alert, StillGood AP waits a set period (30-60 minutes depending on severity) before alerting about that problem again. This keeps you informed without overwhelming you with duplicate notifications.
StillGood AP supports NINA 3.0+ and PHD2 2.6+. We recommend using the latest versions of both applications for the best experience.
Yes, StillGood AP needs to be running on your imaging computer to monitor log files in real-time. It has a minimal footprint and won't interfere with NINA or PHD2.
