User Reviews
Pros
- Simple, elegant UI that presents a lot of information in a concise format.
- Provides sun and moon positions, rise/set times, and related data for planning photos and outdoor activities.
- Excellent planning tool for photography, helping with timing, vantage points, and field-of-view planning.
- Reliable and well-regarded; users have used it for years with consistent results.
- All-in-one tool with a good map view and integrated tools that simplify complex solar/astronomical data.
Cons
- Borders/state boundaries have stopped showing in newer versions, a regression users want fixed.
- Bottom controls and the date slider can be hard to use or overly sensitive.
- Tablet or touch navigation can be inconsistent (swipe vs. scroll issues on some devices).
- Missing features like an adjustable circle shade; users would like more customization.
- Needs regular updates to maintain compatibility and address requests.

Great app. Does what it advertises well. Takes a minute to get the hang of how to use it, but after that, it's a pretty smooth experience. I wish it also included moon phase tracking.
