Roadmap

Eriktim82

Hi ZWO,

I was wondering if you are going to share a roadmap for ASIAIR development as you did last year for Firmware 2.0.

This would be greatly appreciated if you have anything to share.

Clear skies,

Tim

Sorry, what is the roadmap for ASIAIR development you mentioned?

Eriktim82

PMTeam@ZWO just wanted to know if new features or anything new is coming out over the next few months.

Any update on Asiair?

I've been recently having a issue where the app on my phone and tablet will crash to main welcome screen

PMTeam@ZWO

We are constantly updating features. But the new version will not be released for nearly 3 months

please push a small update with the Sony camera fix. So many are waiting for this and waiting another 3 months where we are stuck with 30" exposure time makes us so sad.

Yeah, and he is asking for a roadmap, or list of features we can expect in future releases - usually listed by Quarters or whatever your development cycle is. Something to whet our appetites, as well as do our own planning! 🙂

For example, if I know that 3rd party focusers are on the roadmap, then I could avoid buying a new one (wishful thinking, I know)...

PMTeam@ZWO thank you. I'm guessing we'll get a beta version to test out.

Also, will y'all have a announcement or a list of planned features?

PMTeam@ZWO 3 months?! I hope it's another mayor update then because 3 months in software business is a veeeeeeery long time. Why don't you change your dev-process to some Continuous Delivery and publish new features/bugfixes more frequently when they are ready for the public? This would keep your customers (us) more happy with your products.

PMTeam@ZWO

Sorry，we have no plan to release relevant information in the near future. After the test version is released, we will notify you in the forum as soon as possible

Yes please release bug fix update for Sony A7iv. I have an unusable Asiair plus that says it supports all these Sony cameras and it doesn’t. Very disappointing if we have to wait 3 months for a fix.. please push this as soon as possible so I can finally use the asiair I invested in.

PMTeam@ZWO

Sorry, we are still working hard on the Sony A7M4 camera issue.

Why did your bugtracking team close my issue as resolved if the issue is not solved?

Isn‘t this just a update of the sony camera remote sdk? And maybe some tweeks in your code calling the api?

PMTeam@ZWO THIS IS TERRIBLE SERVICE, LITERALLY SITTING ON A ASIAIR PLUS COLLECTING DUST CAUSE I CANT USE MY SONY A7IV. WHAT KIND OF URGENCY IS THIS BEING GIVEN.

iErickDGAF

This is so messed up, good thing I didnt buy the new Am3 mount. Not buying anymore ZWO products, selling my ASIairpro if anyone is interested, cant even use it with my Sony A7IV. 3 months!? its taken pretty much this whole year and no update.

joshlopez1588

iErickDGAF I’m also waiting. Very disappointing. Just wish they would prioritize and release bug fixes and address other updates and enhancements later. This is a hard down bug making the camera unusable. They advertised support for a new camera that has never worked. Critical issue.

Any update on the bug fix for Sony a7iv?

Eriktim82

@PMTeam@ZWO

Any update for future update releases?

New features, or a list of features that are being worked on.

It's more than 3 months since I started the Post.

Can you share anything?

The lack of features for plan mode has me wanting to leave asiair behind for Nina.

libghoto2 has updated on Github - includes most 2022 Canon cameras released and others. PLEASE update! Have not used my AM5 for 8 months because our workflow for it uses the Canon R6 MkII which is now supported.
