Features & Capabilities

Know exactly where the Sun, Moon, and planets are — live compass, golden hour, moon phase, and more.

SkyLocation puts the entire sky in your pocket. Using precise astronomical algorithms based on Jean Meeus "Astronomical Algorithms" and the NOAA Solar Calculator, it tells you exactly where to look for the Sun, Moon, and five naked-eye planets — right now, from where you are.

Point your phone at the sky and the live compass overlay shows you the real-time azimuth of the Sun and Moon. No network connection needed: all calculations run on-device, accurate to within half a degree for any date within 200 years of today.

Key features:

  • Real-time Sun & Moon positions: altitude, azimuth, compass direction, and above/below horizon status
  • Rise, transit, and set times for the Sun and Moon
  • Live compass overlay with directional arrows for all tracked bodies
  • Five naked-eye planets: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn — positions updated in real time
  • Moon phase disc with illumination percentage and phase name
  • Golden hour and blue hour windows for morning and evening, perfect for photographers
  • Interactive day timeline: scrub through any moment of the day to preview sky positions
  • Save custom locations and switch between them instantly
  • Date picker to explore past and future sky configurations
  • Share a snapshot card showing current Sun and Moon data with coordinates

Whether you are a photographer scouting the perfect light, a stargazer planning your evening session, or just curious about what is up there, SkyLocation gives you the answers at a glance.
