About this app

🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕

Spectacular, interactive 3D simulation of the moon, right down to the shadows in the craters and earthshine on the dark side. Touch screen control changes date and time as seen from your location - the phase tracks your every move. Use two fingers to spin the moon itself (see the far side!) and zoom in to see lunar features up close.

Ratings and reviews

It's a cool app, and watch face, I would however like to see a red light filter option for the watch face. And some color options for the time and complications, or a stronger font shadow to make them more visible on top of the bright moon (complications are fine, but digital time blends a bit). Other than that, great job on the app.

It's a nice little app. However, there should be an option to turn off notifications for events not visible to the user. I keep getting a repeated notification, even after I swipe it away, for an active penumbral eclipse, which is not visible in my location - which the app also tells me. An option to disable notifications for non-visible events is required.

Phone app is nice, but I what I really wanted this for is my watch. Unfortunately, the watch side of the app is disappointing. The watch face looks nice and is accurate, but there were no customizable complications. The tile was useless. It didn't update to the correct phase and so was just a nice picture with wrong information. I'm really hoping whatever is wonky with the tile gets fixed because I paid for this app and was a promised a functioning tile.
