Ratings and reviews

was great but latest update went backwards. Now does not remember last configuration.

sun finder has been an excellent tool for my gardening , I find that it helps with the changing of the seasons here in the northeastern US to optimize and help pinpoint the best locations for the optimal amount of sunlight needed to grow our vegetables.

The best app for photographers and not oly👍👍👍
