- Yes. It connects to a phone or computer and shows the image on the screen through an app or camera viewer. Check that your device and port match the included cable.

- Yes, it is aimed at STEM learners and beginners. Younger children need help with the app and with keeping the scope steady.
- Can it take photos?
