Sun Position, Sunrise & Sunset

About this app

Sun Position shows you sunrise and sunset times, as well as the solar and lunar path on an augmented reality camera view for any day of the year at your current location. Its handy data screen also gives you other useful information including moon rise/set times, golden hour and twilight times, and moon phase information.

The app has a map view which plots the daily sun and moon path relative to your current location. It also contains a widget for your home screen showing sunrise/set times for the current day and your current location.

This app is a demo of the full version of Sun Position, which is restricted to showing you sun position data only for the current day. To view data for any day of the year see our full Sun Position app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andymstone.sunposition).

- Plan a photography shoot - know in advance exactly when and where sunrise and sunset will be
- Viewing a potential new home? Use this app to find out when you'll get sun in your kitchen.
- Planning a new garden? Find out which areas will be the most sunny, and which areas are likely to be in shade throughout the day
- Getting solar panels? Check whether nearby obstructions will be a problem.

Ratings and reviews

A basic app that displays sun and moon information for the current day. To the developers: please reconfigure the "sun/moon detailed data" widgets to show data in two separate columns to save home screen space. Currently, if I configure my widget to display only four data points, the widget size must be exanded to ⅓ of the page. Also, it would be great if the widget could update to display the next day's dawn and sunrise times directly following the current day's dusk time. Please consider!

This app has been useful for me because I like to know the sun's path at different times of the day around my home to find the best spot for my houseplants. It has also been useful at my place of work (commercial greenhouse) to watch the arc of the sun over the seasons. I have yet to try the full version but am sure it is just as if not more useful the only thing holding me back is the initial cost of $9.99+TAX at the time of writing but know there is a commission fee from the app store for devs

It does exactly what you need. The sun & moon positions are accurately overlaid onto satellite ground maps (if you want) & it's easy to drop a pin wherever you want to see where each rise or set. Great for planning photography trips for the best golden/blue hour shots. If there could be one improvement it would be the ability to swipe the map up or down with 2 fingers to go into/out of a 3D view.

What's new

We have added a new screen where you can see all of the photos you have taken in the app and view them on a map. We have also added a new alarm option for events and have included a new Turkish translation.

We hope that you like these changes. If you have any questions or suggestions you can get in contact at [e-mail].
