Unfortunately the mount was so noisy I gave up on automatic three star alignment. Instead I manually moved it over to the moon and held my phone up against a 40mm eyepiece, hovering about a finger space away from it to prevent vignetting and maximise the image circle. All a bit unconventional really!
