Craving sunshine? So does Paris.

It's one of those days when everyone's out and about. The sky is blue, the air smells like spring, and all you want to do is put your drink down on a terrace table, feel the sun on your face, and watch Paris come alive.

But Paris is a city of narrow streets, Haussmannian buildings, and shifting shadows. The perfect terrace—the one where the sun is still shining at 6 p.m.—is something you have to earn... or discover.

Get Sun finds it for you.

In real time, Get Sun simulates the shadows cast by every building in Paris depending on the time of day. It shows you exactly which terraces are in the sun right now—and which ones will be in two hours when you've finished your drink.
Because true Parisian luxury is this: Sitting on a sunny terrace with friends. Watching people go by. Putting the world to rights. Laughing too loudly. Losing track of time. Get Sun is the app that helps you make the most of those moments—in the sun, not in the shade.
