About
Be there when the Moon clears your horizon.
Moonrise Moment combines lunar position calculations, your location, altitude, and nearby terrain estimates to show when to look, where to face, and what you will see.
NEXT RISE
See the next moonrise at a glance, including daytime rises: local time, a live countdown, moon phase, illumination, bearing, altitude, and any estimated horizon adjustment. Today, Tomorrow, or the event date makes the timing clear, and daytime rises are labeled.
FIND IT
Use the live compass to find the Moon. While the Moon is above the horizon, Find It points toward its current position and shows its altitude. While it is below the horizon, Find It points toward the next moonrise bearing.
FORECAST
Explore a full lunar cycle. Compare moonrise times, phases, illumination, and bearings, with the fullest upcoming moonrise highlighted.
ALERTS
Choose a lead time and let Moonrise Moment give you a quiet heads-up before the next rise. Alerts are local notifications scheduled on your device, with optional Live Activity support.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No advertising. Your precise location is used to calculate the event; it is not sent to PostHog or RevenueCat. Limited anonymous app activity helps us understand usage and improve the app, as described in the privacy policy. Nearby coordinate samples may be sent to Open-Meteo to estimate terrain, as explained in the privacy policy.
Moonrise times, bearings, and terrain adjustments are estimates. Weather, buildings, local obstructions, device sensors, and atmospheric conditions can affect real-world visibility.
