## What is inShade?

inShade finds walking routes with more shade, so you can reach your destination while staying cool.

Using the sun's position and the height of buildings, inShade calculates the shadows cast on the streets and suggests a "shade route" in addition to the usual "shortest route." Make hot-day walks, commutes, school runs, and outings with kids or a stroller a little cooler and more comfortable.

When it helps
- You want to walk in the shade on a hot afternoon
- You'd happily take a slightly longer but cooler route
- You want to choose your route when the sun is strong

Main features
- Switch between the shade route and the shortest route (compare walking time and how much more shade you get)
- Change the time of day and watch the sun move, the shadows shift, and the route change
- See the sun's direction and altitude right on the map
- Search from your current location to a destination and view the route
- Available in 100+ countries

How to use
1. Search for a destination, or tap the map
2. Compare "Shade" and "Shortest"
3. Pick the cooler route and head out

Beat the sun and make summer city walks far more comfortable. Find your cool shortcut with inShade.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.5 — 2026-08-13

Improved stability and fixed minor issues.

### 1.1.4 — 2026-08-11

Shade is now calculated far more accurately in mountains and on hiking trails. Tree shade is taken into account, both inside forests and along their edges.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-08-09

Fixed an issue where no route could be found in mountains and on hiking trails. You can now search for a shaded route even when the start or destination is far from a path.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-08-05

Tidied up our App Store search keywords. No functional changes since 1.1.1.
If you notice anything, please send us a note from “Feedback” in the menu.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-08-04

• Fixed a bug where picking a destination outside central areas showed “You can’t walk there” and no route appeared. The app now fetches exactly the street data your route needs, each time you search.
• Stopped prefetching large amounts of map data over cellular (prefetching now happens on Wi-Fi only).
