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

Innacurate

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

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!

Super coole Idee

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

So nich!

Sehr praktische und inzwischen wirklich sauber überarbeitete App. Die neue Version läuft deutlich runder, die Echtzeitberechnung baut endlich schnell und zuverlässig auf, und die früheren Kinderkrankheiten scheinen beseitigt. Gerade wenn man spontan sehen will, wo und wann die Sonne hinkommt, ist die App im Alltag extrem nützlich. Klare Empfehlung.

Schlecht

Ungenau und überforderns

Lots of Errors

Great idea but there are several places in my local area on the map that have now closed, some for quite some time. A non local could be wondering around for a while to find that sunny venue.

Inspired!

Using 3.0 version and it is very slick, very fast and has some great features. This is going to be an essential summer app in London! Well done 👏

It does not work anymore

This was a great app. But it does not seem to work anymore :/

Not really accurate

The app doesn’t account for natural shade so trees and hedges aren’t included in the data. The idea is great but it needs to be better than this. The Shademap app is better.

Not Working/Useless

Unfortunately nothing works on the app, good idea and concept, if only it actually did what it is meant to

Not good

Not accurate at all. When you get to the pub/restaurant etc the garden isn’t in the sun at all. Good concept but needs changing massively

Useless

This app is slow, not working properly. The idea is also not creative, you can find better information from Google Business Profile of any pub.

Add Satellite Image

This would be great if you had the option to use satellite imagery overlayed with shadows. Then we could see when gardens are in the sun

Needs better data

There was a website that did this back in the noughts and me and my friends have often wondered why no one had done it since so huge applause for trying.

The problem is that the simulation relies on a couple of data points meaning there can be huge inaccuracies. I’ve referenced the pubs near me and know that several don’t have outdoor drinking spaces or do but are always in shade past a certain time because of the shadows from surrounding buildings - two of them are under a flyover and never get sun despite the fact the app says otherwise.

Looking forward to future iterations but for now I can’t rely on it.

Slow :(

It’s slow. Also user interface is not good. There is no easy to sign with google . Also password security is weak etc . I’ll delete the app :( not useable

Fokussierung nicht vorhanden

Grundsätzlich super Idee. Jedoch braucht die App viel zu lange zum Laden bis es sich neu fokussiert hat. Hab grad 10 Minuten gewartet, dass es sich fokussiert, jedoch ohne Erfolg. Dadurch hat die App auch keine Funktion mehr und unbrauchbar. Deswegen hab ich die App auch gelöscht. Vielleicht kann man diesen Fehler umsetzen und lösen.

Game-changing app for afternoon pints

For years I wished someone made this app - now my dream has come true! Sure, the UI could be a little more slick but it can find me a pub in the sun and that’s all that matters.

Easy to use and works well

Only thing it’s missing it’s a favourites tab as manny places have similar names and scrolling on the map to find the location can be frustrating

Brilliant.

Game changer, well done Mohamed.
