Pocket Moon: Phases & Tides

Pocket Moon is the night sky's friendliest field guide. Tonight's moon, doodled in a cozy sketchbook style: its phase, its name, how bright it is, and when it plans to show up.

FREE, FOREVER • The current moon phase as a charming illustration, updated as the sky turns • The next four phase changes, so the full moon never sneaks up on you • Three moods: Dark Sky, Sketchbook, and Deep Navy • No ads. Ever.

POCKET MOON PREMIUM (one small purchase, yours forever) • Moonrise and moonset times, with compass arrows that point where the moon will actually be. Aim your phone at the horizon and look • Tide schedules with a 24-hour tide curve, next high and low, and saved stations for beaches you love, powered by NOAA predictions • Phase notifications: all eight, just the big two, or blissful silence • Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen, all four sizes • Lunar age, for those keeping count (day 14 of 29.53, if you're asking)

THE FINE PRINT • One-time purchase. No subscriptions, nothing to renew, no account to make. • No tracking, no third-party anything • The moon calculations happen right on your phone, so it works on mountaintops, at sea, and in airplane mode • Tide predictions are cached, so beach days don't need bars

Tide coverage is US-only for now: all US coasts, the Great Lakes, Puerto Rico, the USVI, Guam, and friends (about 3,000 stations). Moon features work anywhere on Earth with a sky.
