Golden Hour - Sun Tracker

Plan every shoot around perfect light. Golden Hour tracks the sun for you — golden hour and blue hour times, sun position and path, and photo light exposure planning for any location on earth. No internet. No accounts. Just the light. BUILT FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS Most sun-tracking apps are built for hikers, astronomers, or weather watchers. This one is built for you. Every label speaks photographer — "golden hour" instead of "solar elevation 0–6°," "blue hour" instead of "civil twilight." The warm charcoal UI stays readable in bright outdoor light without blinding you at dusk.
