## What is SunMapApp?

PRIVACY FIRST
SunMap doesn't track you. No accounts, no analytics, no ads. Your location stays on your device and is only used to show nearby venues.

Privacy policy: https://sunmap.app/privacy
Terms of service: https://sunmap.app/terms

Built for sun-chasers, and anyone who believes a cold drink tastes better in the sunshine.

SunMap uses real 3D building data and precise solar calculations to show you exactly which outdoor seats are in the sun — right now, or at any time of day. Scrub through the timeline to plan your afternoon, or just open the app and go.

FEATURES
- Real-time sun and shade status for 300+ venues
- 3D shadow simulation using actual building geometry
- Timeline slider — see sun conditions for any time today
- Beer prices, events and opening hours
- Works in Oslo, London, Stockholm, Gothenburg and Stavanger
- No sign-up required — just open and explore

HOW IT WORKS
SunMap calculates shadows cast by real buildings using 3D raycasting and the sun's exact position. Each venue's outdoor seating area is individually mapped for accurate results. No guesswork — just geometry and physics.

CITIES
Oslo — Grunerloekka, Gronland, Sentrum, Majorstuen and more
London — Shoreditch, Hackney, Broadway Market and beyond
Stockholm — Sodermalm, Gamla Stan, Vasastan
Gothenburg — Haga, Linne, Langgatorna
Stavanger — Fargegata, Ovre Holmegate and the harbour


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.2 — 2026-09-02

Instant, seamless launch. The app now opens straight into a branded loading screen with no black flash on iPhone, and the map is ready to use faster than before.

Rebuilt native startup so the launch screen matches the app exactly
Smoother, more responsive time slider and zoom
Dynamic top row: city, live temperature and clock now scale correctly on every iPhone size
Side controls no longer overlap on smaller screens, and location can be toggled on and off reliably
Search results are now fully readable and sit above the filter row
Sun cone scales with zoom and shows the exact times the sun arrives and leaves
Lighter, cleaner map style with clearer clusters when zoomed out
Weather is always live: temperature in the clock, overlay optional
Continued accuracy work across all cities: verified outdoor seating, opening hours, terrain and tree shade

### 3.1 — 2026-08-28

Faster launch and smoother map. The app now preloads sun and venue data before the map appears, so panning, zooming and the time slider stay fluid.

Over 1,000 verified venues each in New York, London, Paris and Los Angeles, plus a big expansion across Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger, Amsterdam and Stockholm.

More accurate sun. Shadow calculations now include terrain and tree canopy, so hillside and tree-lined spots are no longer marked sunnier than they are. Sun timelines match the map markers exactly.

Local weather. Cloud cover is interpolated per neighbourhood, so a cloudy district and a sunny one are shown separately, and each venue tells you whether the sun is direct or filtered.

Cleaner map at low zoom with grouped markers, a redesigned bottom bar, and a new app icon.

### 3.0 — 2026-08-18

Thousands of new places and a sharper sun engine.

Big city expansions: Copenhagen, Berlin, Stockholm and Gothenburg now cover hundreds of verified outdoor spots each, with new venues across Oslo, Paris and Amsterdam as well.
Every new place is checked against real building data, so markers sit on the actual terrace and never in the water.
Deeper, more realistic building shadows on the map, so you can see at a glance which side of the street is in sun.
The map now opens slightly more zoomed out, giving you the full shadow pattern of the neighbourhood right away.
Smoother time scrubbing: dragging the sun timeline is faster and no longer flickers sun-hour numbers.
More local weather: cloud cover is interpolated per area, so one part of town can be cloudy while another is sunny.
Refreshed interface with a dark frosted-glass look, cleaner filters and better spacing on small screens.
Beer prices and happy hour info for Oslo, plus opening hours corrections across several cities.
Many fixes: duplicate venues removed, selected places always stay on top, and improved performance on older devices.

### 2.9 — 2026-08-06

Speed and smoothness

Rebuilt the map engine: venues now group into clusters when you zoom out and render individually as you zoom in, cutting the number of live elements by up to 20x.
Timeline scrubbing is dramatically faster. Sun hours update instantly instead of stuttering.
Zoom and pan are smoother on older devices, including iPhone 12, with lighter animations and reused map markers.
Cleaner interface

Removed the side zoom slider. Pinch and double-tap now handle zoom, leaving more room for the map.
Control buttons never overlap the venue card or timeline, at any screen size.
Frosted glass surfaces with a warm tint throughout.
Sun accuracy

Continued Theory of Everything recalibration across Oslo, including Bjørvika, Sørenga, Aker Brygge and Grünerløkka.
Local cloud shadows drift across the map with real wind data, so sun conditions differ between neighborhoods.
Shadow forecasting is limited to 10 days, where weather data is reliable.
Venues

Corrected placement, opening hours and sun windows for hundreds of venues.
Added Festningen, Barra, Vinkassen and more.
Updated beer prices and happy hour details for Oslo.

### 2.8 — 2026-08-05

This update is all about precision and a calmer map.

Local weather: cloud shadows now follow the actual wind direction and update live as you drag the timeline.
New frosted glass design across all controls.
New zoom slider beside the map, and all controls now stay clear of the venue card on small screens.
Stable map: every venue stays visible while you zoom, pan and select.
Over 1,000 venues recalibrated against real building geometry.
Oslo: 100+ new outdoor terraces plus updated prices and placements (Mano, Freddy Fuego, Blå, Vaaghals).
Faster, smoother timeline scrubbing.
