User reviews

:(

Nur sehr bedingt einsetzbar, die meisten Vorhersagen sind aus der Luft gegriffen. Ärgerlich!

Simple et efficace

Fiable , facile d’utilisation

Accessibity

As a sight impaired user any chance of making the fonts bigger? Love it otherwise - I know whether to get out of bed for possible good shoots or not! 😂

Easy to learn!

The other golden hour apps looked over-complicated to me, so I decided to take a chance on this one — and I’m super glad I did. It even helps me plan my shoots ahead of time based on localized weather forecasts. Recommended!

Nice app

Overall app is nice. Unfortunately I am deleting due to not using it enough to justify the $8.99 it costs per year to keep.
