Great app

This app is amazing in how many features you get. Weather, golden hour and blue hour, tides, moon information, local scenic spots etc. Locations It also has a lifetime deal now, which I am a fan of over subscriptions. I am only an occasional photographer so I need to still consider if I want the buy the lifetime option. But if you photograph regularly, then try this out.
