SunCalc.net on your iPhone! Know the sunset time. Simple tool for everyone who wants to know when and where sun rises or goes down. Combined with compass and time, and weather. Knows time zones and shows time word wide - probably nicest tool to know the time at some place at the Earth, so far :)
Azophi
Read full descriptionHide full description
Azophi turns your phone into a live radar for everything above you — aircraft, satellites, and the cosmos. SKY — a live star chart from your exact location and time: stars, constellations, deep-sky objects, and the Sun, Moon and planets, all exactly where they are right now. Pinch and pan to explore any patch of sky. AIM — hold your phone up and the sky follows where you point, naming the star or planet you're aimed at. SOLAR — zoom out from Earth into a living solar system, with the planets at their true positions, orbiting and spinning at their real rates. Tap any world for a rotating globe and its facts. Then keep zooming out, continuously — through the nearest star systems, across the Milky Way, all the way to the Local Group of galaxies. A true "powers of ten," from your backyard to the edge of the local universe. GROUND — the live sky overhead, mapped onto Earth: aircraft around you with callsign, altitude and speed; satellites including the ISS, Hubble and the James Webb Space Telescope; and the day/night line crossing the globe. Everything is computed live from your location and the current moment — no account, no sign-up. Just open Azophi and look up.
