I came across this by a rather circuitous route of exploring a lot of dead end avenues, which mainly ended in obsolete PC software.
The particularly appealing factor with this 'app' is it knows about my Vixen equatorial mount and more especially the peculiarities of the Vixen Polar scope. The app makers suggest my scope isn't the best, most accurate design for a Polar scope but by using their app properly it can in fact bring it up to excellent accuracy.
I am off out again tonight, good forecast for clear skies. Hopefully I will mount the 300mm f/2.8 lens on the D800 and run off some test exposures. If the full Moon allows I will try to get some of the Orion nebula.
