Didn’t do what I thought

Couldn’t understand it, just came up with a map with some restaurants. Wanted to know which areas had sun didn’t seem to have that

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. You're right, the app wasn't making this clear enough. SunSeekr is designed to show where sunlight and shade fall, not just sunny venues. We've been improving the map experience and have also added SunPaths for finding sunnier or shadier walking routes. Coverage currently varies by city, so if you spot missing outdoor areas you can now map or report them directly in the app. We'd love you to give the new version another try.

Not accurate

Concept is good. However the angle and the shades from building do not always reflect reality. Trees and other large structures not take into the account

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, and you're right about trees. SunSeekr calculates shadows using available building and geographic data, but trees and smaller obstructions aren't consistently available in the open datasets we currently use. We're working to improve this, and you can now report inaccurate areas directly in the app to help us correct the map. We're a small independent team, so these reports genuinely help us make SunSeekr better. We'd love you to give the latest version another try.

Innacurate

Looks like it just does whether the general area is sunny, not the actual outdoor areas of the pub

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. SunSeekr simulates sunlight using building geometry and sun position, but the accuracy depends on the geographic data available for each area. Trees, awnings and smaller structures can sometimes be missing. We're making those limitations clearer and adding better ways to report and map local conditions. If you spot somewhere that's wrong, please flag it in the app so we can investigate it.

Would like to set accurate location

I’m in Denver on the map but the app says at the top that I’m in Los Angeles in terms of the weather. It is still nice to be able to see the areas that are shaded around me in downtown Denver. You can also move the time so that you can see where the sun will be hitting in the future. Great for checking if the sun is out on the pool deck yet!

Response from developer

Thanks for flagging this, and glad the sun and shade map has been useful in Denver! The weather location showing Los Angeles while you're in Denver definitely isn't right. We've been improving location handling and will keep working on this. Thanks for the really helpful feedback ☀️

Super coole Idee

hatte schon oft überlegt welche Cafés etc. immer in der Sonne liegen, damit hat sich meine Frage geklärt 😍

FAQ

How does SunSeekr determine where the sun is?
