Solid app for quick solar studies
When I first downloaded this app I needed solar angle studies quick and easy and it served the purpose. Every time after I needed solar information I would search websites and look at other maps and then eventually end up at this map to use those same angle studies in plan. Each time I returned to the app I saw a little more about the data it provides and the tools it has. By then 3rd time I bought the upgrade version and now it is my go to. I love it. Nice work to whom ever thanks!

Look elsewhere
Terrible app. Can’t change date without deep searching of menu items. Does not know about daylight savings time. All figures are now an hour off. Do Not depend!on this app.
Awesome!
Such a great app! A videographer and photographers most valuable tool!
Sun, Moon, lights
Originally wanted a Moon app, found this has the Sun as well. Exactly what I want and has great ease of use. Then I discovered all its features, what a gold mine.
Update update
I agree with the other reviews. This is a good app but is in need of an update please please update it.
Compass is wrong
This app might be fine except that when I went out to use it this evening to see where the moon was going to rise, the lat/lon didn't match the compass in the iOS. That may be why the app couldn't tell me where the moon was actually going to rise, but there may be another problem, as from time to time the moon rise location slid around the compass. In addition, the time display is very crowded where the moon is relatively stable for an hour or so, so the time of the exact location is impossible to see from the compass. I dont' know whether the pro version fixes this, but if you want someone to pay for your app it seems like basic things like correct lat/lon should work in the free version.

Brilliant
5 stars, no hesitation. Unexpected goodies include compass and shadow length! I need look no further.

The free version wasn't enough. Knowing the tools I was looking for I've taken a chance and so far it's so worth it. As a photographer I wanted a good guide to the light and weather at a place and time, moon phases and more. If this app works as well as it so far seems to it is well worth it. Combined with the tide app it should be all I need. So to the developer, please keep it up to date and running well. I can only assume the developer is a photographer as it's as close to spot on as it could be for photography use. So far I am impressed. After some months and the recent daylight savings time change I've downgraded my view. You can't contact the creator, it doesn't adjust for DST in uk, it's started glitching in IOS 9 and data stream seems poor for gps. I've tried to contact the creator to avoid public view of my comment to give them a chance to correct the issue. This could be a fantastic app if it worked correctly, wasn't sometimes in German and doesn't cross continent. After paying for it I'm not as sure it's worth it.

Does a hard job well. Best of the Bunch!
I've purchased 7 or 8 sun (or sun + moon) position apps, and this is most useful and easy to read. These apps are all a little different, because the table of compass position & elevation is easy, but the picture of the sun and moon on a map requires requires understanding and drawing ability: Sun & Moon has both the sun and moon (clearly) on a map, AND a list of compass coordinates with elevation. Some apps have both, but this is the one I keep on my phone, to see whether or not I can garden in the sun or shade.My original purpose was for plant position (how much sun or shade in the day), and now I'm figuring out window shading and solar panels. And I like how it works, aesthetically. Good Job.

"Here comes the sun....."
Just like the song, you know time, direction elevation and angle to plan for events & tasks.... Enjoy playing with the app..
