I am really enjoying this app. I've been using the free version for a year and I'm very pleased with it. City backyard gardening can be difficult due to varying degrees of sunlight, throughout the year. But this app has helped in so many ways. I decided to upgrade because I feel really pleased with the quality/features of the app and want the full experience that comes with upgrading to Pro. I also want to support the app creator, as well. More please! Also, thank you for creating this app.

Great app for permaculture design and for mapping out where to plant or build things, in general. The subscription is worth it to be able to span time.

Good app with good info. I would like to suggest that you include some moon information like elongation (angular distance moon-sun) during sunset and if possible an icon I can click to provide me with those info i.e. azimuth, altitude, visibility and elongation at sunset. These info are used by most muslim nations to determine the start of a new muslim calendar months especially ramadhan and syawal. Thank you

Its geeat but the damn widget will not refresh itself no matter what settings i change on the phone, I requested a manual refresh button in the corner of the widget but I was told it refreshes itself every 15 minites, not on my phone it doesn't, apart from that one annoying thing this is a great app.

As a Muslim, Excellent for determining prayer times. Because the position of the sun determine the start and ending of each prayer.

About this app

Sun Locator predicts the sun and moon position and path at a specific location during the course of a day.
Anticipate lighting conditions in photography/filming, real estate, architecture, outdoor activities (e.g. setting up camp), solar panel positioning, gardening, and more.
★ The Main View displays all the detailed information: sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset, blue hour, golden hour, solar noon, twilight times, moon phase and much more
★ The Camera View displays the solar position and lunar position directly overlaid on your device's camera. Use the slider to set the time of day and directly track the solar movement. [A device with a magnetometer (compass) is needed to use the AR feature]
★ The Map feature displays the solar and lunar location, direction and shadow on a map to help you plan your activities.

*Photography: when and where will the sun rise and set? When are the Blue hour and the golden hour? When and where will the moon shine tonight?
*Gardening: do your plants get enough direct sunlight during the course of the day and year?
*Real estate: does a neighboring building obstruct the sun and cause shade?
*Architecture: How much sunshine will your home get? Does the sun shine through your window?
*Camping: will the sun shine on your tent?
*Hiking: when does dawn start and dusk end?
*Solar panels: Will there be nearby obstructions?
