## What is ZORIA Sky?

The sky keeps two appointments a day. ZORIA tells you which ones are worth the trip.

A SCORE, NOT A PROMISE

ZORIA computes a 0-100 rating for every sunrise and every sunset, from Apple Weather data read at the exact hour of the event: low, mid and high cloud, humidity, visibility, chance of precipitation.

The model is deliberately simple and openly stated. Mid and high clouds are the canvas that catches the light — the optimum sits around 50 % cover, because an empty sky has nothing to colour and an overcast sky has nothing to light. Low clouds cut the light at its source: they are what ruins a sunset.

A sky forecast at 85 can disappoint. A sky forecast at 40 can surprise you. That is weather, and ZORIA does not pretend otherwise.

EXACT TIMES, COMPUTED ON YOUR PHONE

Sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour, solar azimuth. All computed astronomically on the device, to the minute, with no connection required.

TEN DAYS OF FORECAST, FREE FOR EVERYONE

Every day shows its score, its golden window and its event time. Set your alert threshold and hear from ZORIA only when it is worth it — at a threshold of 90 you will hear almost nothing. That is the point.

THE WORLD, LIVE

A globe shows the real position of the sun and the lit face of the Earth. Spin it, see where the sun is setting right now, and follow the next sunsets city by city.

YOUR PHOTOS, TIED TO THEIR SKY

Shoot from inside the app: every image keeps the score, the place and the moment it was taken. Your album stays on your phone — except the photos you choose to publish yourself.

THE GALLERY

Publish your finest skies and look at other people's — each one carrying the score and the conditions that produced it. Every photo is reviewed before it appears. You can make a photo private again at any time: it is then erased from our servers. Browsing the gallery requires no account.

THE EVENING LOG

Record what you actually saw. ZORIA compares your notes against its forecasts and computes how often it was right. You will know exactly how much to trust it.

PASSPORT AND STREAK

The time zones you have crossed, and the consecutive days you came out for the light.

WHAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE

Your places, your log, your streak, your settings and your album stay on your device. Only one thing ever goes elsewhere, and only if you decide it should: the photo you choose to publish.

No tracker, no ad network, no analytics. To retrieve the weather, ZORIA sends a pair of coordinates rounded to the kilometre, with no identifier attached.

Publishing requires an account, created with Sign in with Apple. ZORIA keeps only a pen name — not your name, not your address. You can delete it from inside the app, and everything you published goes with it.

FRENCH AND ENGLISH

Both languages are available and can be switched at any time in settings.

ZORIA PRO

Solar times, the sky score and all ten forecast days stay free, forever.

ZORIA Pro adds:
- Unlimited publishing to the gallery — a free account publishes one photo per week

### 5/5 — Très pratique et agréable à utiliser

*2026-09-07*

J’aime beaucoup cette application ! Elle est simple, intuitive et très agréable visuellement. Les informations sur le lever du soleil, l’heure dorée et les conditions du ciel sont faciles à consulter. Très pratique pour prévoir le meilleur moment pour faire de belles photos ou simplement profiter d’un joli coucher de soleil. Je recommande !

## Frequently asked questions about ZORIA Sky

### What is the ZORIA score?

The ZORIA score is a rating from 0 to 100 that predicts the quality of a sunrise or sunset. It's calculated using Apple Weather data for low, medium, and high clouds, humidity, visibility, and precipitation probability.

### Does ZORIA have ads?

No, ZORIA does not contain advertisements. The app is committed to a user experience free from ad trackers and audience measurement tools.

### How accurate is ZORIA's forecast?

ZORIA provides a score based on weather data and astronomical calculations. While it aims for accuracy, it acknowledges that weather can be unpredictable, and a high score doesn't guarantee a perfect view.

### Can I use ZORIA offline?

Yes, ZORIA calculates sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour, and sun azimuth directly on your device using astronomy, so it does not require an internet connection for these core features.

### What devices does ZORIA support?

ZORIA is currently supported on iPhone devices, as indicated by its platform compatibility.

### How often is ZORIA updated?

ZORIA was last updated on September 18, 2026, with version 1.4.0. This indicates a recent update, suggesting ongoing development and maintenance.

### What is the age rating for ZORIA?

ZORIA has an age rating of 4+, making it suitable for a wide range of users, including younger individuals.

### How does ZORIA handle user privacy?

ZORIA prioritizes user privacy by sending only rounded coordinates to obtain weather data, without any identifiers. Publishing photos requires an account created with Sign in with Apple, which stores only a pseudonym, not your name or address.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.0 — 2026-09-18

The sun in line.

- Every viewpoint now shows the days the sun will set exactly in line with it. Usually two dates a year, worked out from its own latitude and the direction it actually faces
- With ZORIA Pro, search those days across a whole destination and date range: "Spain, 3 to 10 March"
- The app says what it knows. Which way a viewpoint faces is recorded for only one place in eight, and very unevenly between countries: the screen states this before you search, with the numbers, instead of going quiet

The Atlas joins ZORIA Pro.

- The 37,220 viewpoints, their sunset times and the search are now part of the subscription
- Solar hours, the sky score and the ten-day forecast stay free, as promised. So do your photo album and the shared gallery

Fixes.

- The "See the plans" button in the alignment search did nothing
- In the Atlas, cards were drawn over the clock while scrolling

Viewpoint data comes from OpenStreetMap and is used under the ODbL licence.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-09-16

An Atlas that covers the world.

37,220 viewpoints across 102 countries, up from nine — nearly all of them around Nice
The places come from OpenStreetMap: viewpoints that people went out and mapped, not a list someone made up
Sunset time and sun position are computed for each place, at its own latitude and time zone — so they shift with the season, as they do in reality
Elevation and the direction a viewpoint faces are shown when they are known, and left out when they are not

Search.

Search by place name or country: "Phromthep", "Iceland". Accents and capitals do not matter
In the gallery too: type "Callian" and you see every sky shared from Callian

Smoother.

The Atlas no longer stutters when you scroll, even with thirty-seven thousand places
The gallery loads a page at a time instead of asking for everything at once
Search bars stay visible while you scroll
Viewpoint data comes from OpenStreetMap and is used under the ODbL licence.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-15

Place names.

Every photo published to the gallery now carries the name of the place it was taken — "Nai Harn · Phuket", never a street address
ZORIA suggests it when it knows your location at the moment of the shot; you can correct it before publishing
The gallery shows the place and the author on every thumbnail, and the golden window of the day in a photo's detail view

A faster gallery.

Thumbnails are fifteen times lighter than before: the grid opens without waiting, even on a weak connection

Deleting means deleting.

Removing a photo from your album now also removes it from the gallery, and erases its file from our servers
Reliability: network failures are now reported instead of passing for successes, the gallery no longer empties itself after an hour of use, and erasing your data either completes — or tells you why it could not.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-09

The public gallery.

- Publish a photo from your album to the ZORIA gallery, with the score, the place and the sky conditions at the moment you pressed the shutter
- Every photo is reviewed before it appears
- Make a photo private again whenever you like: it is then erased from our servers
- Report and block on every photo
- An account is only needed to publish: Sign in with Apple, a pen name, nothing else. Delete your account from inside the app.
- Browsing the gallery needs no account
- Your album and your private photos never leave your phone
- A free account publishes one photo per week; ZORIA Pro publishes without limit

Fixes: the version number shown in settings, and several messages that stayed invisible when an operation failed.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-08

SHARE YOUR SKIES

Any photo in your album can now become an image to share, in one of two layouts:

• Simple caption — the photo untouched, with the score out of 100, the place, the date and the time along the bottom.

• Full card — the photo, then the sky detail from that moment: low, mid and high cloud, the golden window and the sun's azimuth.

The full card appears only for photos taken with ZORIA's camera from this version onwards, as they are the only ones carrying those measurements. Every other photo keeps the caption, with no error message.

THE REAL TIME OF YOUR PHOTOS

A photo imported from your library now shows the time it was actually taken, read from the file itself — not the moment you added it to the album. When the file carries no such date, ZORIA shows none rather than guessing.

For the same reason, an imported photo no longer inherits the sky score, the city or the solar phase of the day you imported it. ZORIA has no way of knowing the conditions it was shot in, and would rather say nothing than say something false — all the more so now that these details can leave your phone.

CLEARER CONFIRMATIONS

Confirmation prompts before deleting now appear in the centre of the screen, with both buttons plainly visible. On some iPhones they appeared at the top, with the text cut short.
