Stellavita Plate solving and annotation.

There is not annotation when I plate solve a sub.  Is it not a feature in the SV or am I missing something ?  For info, I use the iOS version.

I received this email yesterday:
Hi,

I wanted to let you know that since yesterday, AstroBin has been experiencing longer-than-usual delays in plate-solving images.

This started after Astrometry.net had some connectivity issues, which led to a backlog of images waiting to be processed. While investigating if I could help speed things up, I also found several thousand older images that had been stuck in plate-solving status—some dating back years. I’ve re-queued all of them, which has temporarily increased the overall load.

The good news is that the queue is moving quickly now, and I expect everything to be caught up within half a day to a day.

Apologies for the delay, and thanks for your patience and understanding.


Best,

Salvatore
