### 4/5 — Ошибка

*2019-11-03*

Некорректный поиск геолокации

### 3/5 — Wrong East and west, want to refund lease

*2017-01-25, version 1.8.0*

Wong East and west, how can I get refund

### 4/5 — actually a very good little app

*2016-09-12*

suprisingly good despite some of the odd reviews
one thing i have noticed, especially when using the camera view mode is you need to give it time to settle in - it will not be spot on ever, but gets pretty close in putting the sun where it actually is in the lense....

### 5/5 — Outstanding app

*2014-10-05, version 1.5.0*

Love this product.  Gives incredibly accurate results in ANY location in the world. Indispensable tool for photographers and campers.  Even use it to evaluate possible home building sites.

### 5/5 — Neat app

*2014-08-07*

Very cool app. Neat to see the progression of the sun through the day.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2014-03-08*

Brilliant app, helped me to find some great sunset & sunrise locations. Well worth the small price for the full version.

### 4/5 — Nice!

*2014-02-07*

Great app, nice clean interface. Would be great to see lunar in future releases.

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2014-01-27*

Very cool app for photography. It would be great if there were an option for 12 hour display rather than just 24 hour. Also, does it factor in Daylight savings time as well?

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-01-20*

Useful information.

### 4/5 — Works great

*2013-09-16*

This app works really well.  It would be perfect if I could easily enter an address  (like I can a Maps application) rather than longitude and latitude. To be fair, none of the sun tracking apps that i have used allow for this.

### 1/5 — Не могу воспользоваться камерой

*2019-01-11*

Выдает ошибку и пишет разрешите программе использовать камеру, но в настройках этой программы по крайней мере у меня нет таких настроек! Iphone x, ios 12. Проблема как я понял не только у меня.

### 1/5 — Camera access disabled

*2018-12-03*

Every time when I try to open app I see the notice that I should open settings on my phone and allow access to camera! But I haven’t field camera in app settings! Please, fix this bug! I can’t use your app on my phone!

### 1/5 — Ничего не понятно

*2017-06-17*

К сожалению, не могу разобраться, как пользоваться. Включила геолокацию и теперь метка привязана к тому месту, где я нахожусь, поменять нельзя. Влияние высоты соседних построек тоже не показывает! Никакой инструкции нет. Сайт разработчика не доступен. Жаль потраченных денег!

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish

*2016-10-29*

Does not work, screen just flashes then brings up calibration screen, then the iPhone just locks and has to be powered off. Tried removing and reinstalling, calibrating compass first, but just does not work. Can I have my money back? Don't buy.

### 1/5 — Piece of absolute

*2016-03-15*

Don't buy

### 3/5 — Ориентация

*2023-08-04*

Не хватает вертикальной ориентации.

### 3/5 — Adapt to different phone lenses

*2022-08-16*

Adapt to different phone lenses

### 3/5 — Issue with timezones

*2019-01-13, version 1.8.0*

The app works well but the issue is that ephemeris are given in your timezone, not the local timezone. Being based in Paris, I’m glad to know that the sun rises at 1pm in NYC 😬. It doesn’t help to prepare a trip.

The other limitation is that you cannot easily add a bookmark.  You need to drag the pin from one place to another, not convenient.

### 3/5 — Where is the updates?

*2018-09-14*

Last updated 3 years ago.  Could use a refresh to support the iPhone X

### 3/5 — Needs a screen shot option.

*2017-11-28*

I need the option to save images for location notes. Taking a screenshot via volume/home is unwieldy and should be a capture button in the app. 
Otherwise I’m very pleased.

### 5/5 — Great for planning gardens

*2025-11-19*

Knowing what parts of my city backyard won’t get direct light during the winter (when the sun is low on the horizon) has been a gamechanger.

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2024-05-26*

Tolle App, mag ich :)

### 5/5 — Super app

*2020-11-01, version 1.9.0*

Excellente app pour suivre les mouvements du soleil

### 5/5 — Sunset time.

*2020-08-11*

Great app, I use it all the time for determining if a solar panel will be blocked, or where to plant a garden. One request would be to fix the sunrise and sunset times when clicking the screen in AR mode. Today, Aug 11th, in Ohio it’s 32 days off. This means to me that the programmer used a time zone average rather than a location specific calculation. Thanks again for this amazing app!

### 5/5 — Useful

*2019-07-22*

useful with a clear interface.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2017-11-19*

This app is more than I had hoped for. There IS a search function for locations, it's just a little hidden in the drop down menu at the top. This app is exactly what I needed. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great free app, offers features from paid and expensive) other apps

*2017-06-28, version 1.8.0*

Great app, I use it for my solargraphy project. More convenient than photopills, because I can change the time of year at a fingertip and preview sunpath.

I only have to minor issues : 
I wish i could also chnage time of year in the AR view
Sometimes the system compass calibration windows flickr with the app (this is the case for severail apps on my iphone 5c)

keep the good work on !

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2017-06-02*

Used to track sun in order to find best place for my greenhouse in the garden. Worked great but don't forget to enable your location or else it may track the sun completely wrong!

### 5/5 — Works

*2016-08-29*

Bought to see where the path of the sun was going to be and it works great

### 5/5 — Just what I wanted

*2015-05-06*

I never thought much about where the sun rose and set. I assumed East and West and that they were 180 degrees apart. Now I am retired and sitting drinking coffee in the morning, and I can't help noticing that the sun doesn't rise or set in the same place. I thought, there must be an app to show this and there are. This one is fascinating with lots features I hadn't anticipated.
