## What is Plenilune?

Plenilune shows the Moon as it is tonight: its phase is computed from its real position, then drawn like an engraving. I built it end to end with one idea: bringing together, in a single app, the precision of astronomy and the beauty of engravings.

Version 2 puts the Moon back in the sky. Switch to Sky and it steps back among the constellations, with the sign it is crossing. Tap it and turn it with your finger to reach its far side, with the Earth and the Sun behind it. At night, hold your phone up: the viewfinder lines the drawing up with the real sky and leads you to the Moon.

Moonrise and moonset times are computed offline for the place where you are, and so is the visibility of eclipses. And every morning, a moon story: a saying, a belief, a fact of astronomy.

Day to day, Plenilune lives on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen through its widgets, now up to the extra large size. It can alert you when a full moon, a new moon or a quarter approaches. Any page can be shared as an image or a short clip, with the Moon drawn as it really is that night.

Premium opens the full-screen Moon, the viewfinder and the calendar of every month from 1900 to 2100. It reveals the names and stories of the twelve traditional full moons, alerts you to rarer events such as eclipses, supermoons or the Moon changing sign, and adds inks for the app and its widgets, including one you mix yourself. This is how Plenilune can live without advertising.

### 5/5 — Review of Plenilune moon phases app

*2026-10-09*

I adore this app! Such beautiful artwork and narrative. Also a fan of the moon stats and info. Thank you for creating this! 🩶

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-09-19*

This is a beautifully designed app. It brings me joy everyday that I look at it and open it up.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, this means a lot to me 🙏

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-08-30*

A beautiful app. Simple in design (and SO easy to use) but the art is just lovely! There are a few features behind a very modest paywall, but absolutely nothing that impedes using the app. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, "the art is just lovely" is the nicest thing you could say. The paywall stays modest on purpose: the app should work fully without paying anything.
Glad it does for you! ✨

### 5/5 — 🌟 A shinning star amongst the Milky Way 🌟

*2026-08-24*

🌝 Plenilune is such a work of art. The drawings, the everyday notes, the calendar. It now have a place of honor in my widgets ✨

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! 🙏 🌝

### 5/5 — Piece of art

*2026-08-19*

The illustrations are seriously impressive. You can tell they were made by an actual artist, not generated by AI. Hard to find this kind of quality these days, especially in an app. Really beautifull work.

**Developer response:** Thank you, this really made my day.

### 5/5 — Enfin une app aussi belle qu’utile sur la Lune !

*2026-08-12*

Tout est dans le titre, des infos simples qui vont à l’essentiel. On trouve tout ce qu’on cherche comme infos très rapidement et en plus, c’est vraiment très beau visuellement, autant le mode clair que le mode sombre.

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup ! Difficile de faire mieux que « aussi belle qu’utile » :) J’apporte beaucoup de soin et d’importance à la simplicité et au design et savoir que les deux sont au rendez-vous pour vous est une belle récompense.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0 — 2026-10-22

Plenilune 2 puts the Moon back in the sky.

Switch Today to Sky and the Moon steps back among the constellations, with the sign it is crossing tonight. Tap it and turn it with your finger: you reach its far side, and find the Earth and the Sun behind it.

At night, hold your phone up. The viewfinder lines the drawing up with the real sky and leads you to the Moon. With VoiceOver, it tells you which way to turn.

Tap the date and the calendar opens over Today. Pick a day and Today shows it. The Almanac now explains each of its lines when you tap them.

New widgets come in every size, up to the extra large one that fills a whole page, and the Moon widget stays free at all of them. On iPhone Duo, the app uses the whole screen, folded or open.

Notifications follow more of the sky, from eclipses to the Moon changing sign. Full moons, new moons and quarters stay free.

Premium adds inks for the app and its widgets, one of which you mix yourself, and lets you save your places. The full-screen Moon and the viewfinder are part of it. Sky mode stays free.

### 1.5 — 2026-09-15

Plenilune now shares what it shows.

On the daily note, a day sheet, a named full moon or an eclipse sheet, a new button turns the page into an image: a Story, a Post, or a four-second clip where the sky turns around the Moon. The Moon is engraved as it is on that date, eclipse included.

Moonrise and moonset are back in the right order on Today and on the day sheet. On about every other day the Moon sets before it rises, and the app used to list them the other way round. Days with neither event now say so.

Premium now shows a little of itself before you join: notifications, days outside the month, archived full moons and upcoming events can be glimpsed, and two named full moons are offered in full instead of one. The Premium texts have been rewritten in all six languages, and so have the daily notes and the full moon stories.

Premium members can join the TestFlight beta from Settings.

Fixes: the rating button in Settings showed a raw key, several premium doors needed two taps, and a failed purchase or share stayed silent. The heart on Today is gone; the rating request now comes after three days of use.

### 1.4.1 — 2026-08-29

Plenilune opens a new page in its almanac.

The Moon, Sun and Sky now each have a section of their own. Essential figures stay at the top, while the rest of the almanac unfolds below, line by line. A curve traces the course of the day. You'll find dawn, dusk and astronomical night, the next perigee, the next two eclipses and how visible they will be from where you are. Everything recalculates for your location.

This version also brings several fixes. Changing the language now reloads the page as expected.

### 1.4 — 2026-08-23

A welcome for first steps.

On first launch, four screens introduce the app: your location, the widgets, the full-moon notification. None of it is required — everything can be set later too.

Buying and restoring lifetime access is more reliable. And a few small fixes.

### 1.3 — 2026-08-18

The sky comes alive.

The disc grows and shrinks with the Moon's true distance from Earth — a supermoon finally looks like one. The stars are now drawn by computation: they twinkle softly and fade as the full moon approaches, the way they do in a real night.

On iPad, the layout has been rethought for the larger screen. And the calendar opens faster: the app is smoother, month after month.
