Sun Surveyor (Sun & Moon) Отзывы пользователей

Отличная штука, только если небесные светила хорошо показывает по высоте, то вот с компасом (лево право) немножко врет и всегда по разному(((

Софтина весьма полезная, но в режиме дополненной реальности криво показывает расположение солнца по азимуту

Программа хороша, но при определении местоположения не показывает высоту. Исправите - будет пять.

Пожалуй лучшее приложение для операторов и фотографов! На Лайт даже не тратьте время!

Прекрасное приложение.

It’s a nice and useful app but the long term problem I see is wrong time info. I’m on the west coast and it gives me east coast data even after refreshes and even though it picks up west coast address. Also it says that golden hour is at 7:30pm when in fact it’s at 5:30pm as it’s February. I’ve seen these issues for a long time and it’s still there on 2/28/2025.

Was very well worth the very small cost for the exact data you’re looking for!

This is a very useful and well-made app, which is well worth the small cost. My only complaint is that you cannot scroll past the end of the year in the sunrise and sunset times listing.

This app is my favorite when I travel, I can see exactly where the sunsets will take place, at what time and any date. It will help you to book the most amazing restaurants at the right time and the right location for unforgettable experience. 5 stars well deserved

I have location permissions set to always allow, but the widget will say “no GPS” unless I manually open the app to refresh it.

I teach at Parsons School of Design and use this tool with students. It provide simple and intuitive data for understanding solar geometry in relation to time of day, season and geographic location. This aids students (or practitioners) how to respond with a corresponding design intervention to celebrate direct solar contact or to shade. I find the 3D compass the most helpful tool but have also taken advantage of the “Live View” when on a project site understand seasonal solar conditions and taking screen shots for my documentation. If you work with daylight design or are simply curious about solar and lunar relationships, this is a worthy purchase.

You have arrived. Look no further. If you’re trying to guess where that fiery ball will rise and set along with Mr. Moon, you have the answer right there in your hands. I use this app for business and pleasure. It is so spot on in detail it has saved me thousands of dollars in overtime waiting for the sun to be in the perfect position for filming. I highly recommend SunSurveyor. Customer support is superb.

Convenient

While being fun and intuitive, this app is comprehensive and gives a great sense of our planet’s position in space and everything around us. The GUI is absolutely beautiful, and I use it for photography and just keeping more aware of our glorious universe. It is well worth the paid version. Absolutely no regrets.

Why no milky way core tracking like android?

Great app. use it all the time and highly recommend it.

I use this all the time to help people pick a good spot for a garden. Get used to the controls and you will love it.

I use this app all the time and for so many things. Of course it’s great for photography planning, but I use it much more for trip planning. What time will the sun be setting in Rome when I’m there next year? Great, I’ll make dinner reservations for half an hour before that. How many hours of daylight will there be for that upcoming road trip? Or what’s the difference in day lengths between solstices in that part of the world?When and where exactly will the super moon come over the horizon into view? Easy peasy. I use Sun Surveyor every time I go camping to pick the spot with the best morning shade. Or to find the best seats at an outdoor concert. Once you have the app, you will find dozens of uses for it. I use it so frequently it lives on the first page of my Home Screen. Excellent app. Enjoy!

NOV2023 UPDATE Problem fixed! Yep, Back to 5-Stars But Only bc users Can Get Rid of that Wretched Yellow Stripe. If you hate that yellow stripe bc it obscures the terrain there *is* a way to get rid of it. Praise Ra! To shed that jaundice jinx go to Settings, then... "Advanced Settings" (Scroll down to) "GOOGLE MAP" (Then turn on Legacy Experience) "Always use flat (legacy) experience" It would've been nice if that "off button" was easier to find or mentioned when my review condemning that wretched yellow stripe was... acknowledged. FEB2023 UPDATE One of the recent updates added a yellow stripe that you can't get rid of. It gets in the way when you're trying to see what is South of your target area. There is no way to adjust its transparency. There is no way to toggle it off. Sometimes it takes me twice as long to analyze an area because of that wretched yellow blob. Unnecessarily time consuming. A very effective way to obstruct and annoy people trying to use the app. JAN 2020 UPDATE I received an email message from the developer. Which is information. The little panel on the right will go away if you swipe on the tab to the edge of the screen. ...and your Otterbox doesn’t get in the way, or make you hit the Compass icon which in turn rotates your map giving you virtual whiplash. I still love this app, but after getting rid of the panel I still want to adjust the size of the circle. Or maybe just lock the circle to a specific Size — like we can for location — on the landscape. Still a fantastic and very useful app! (Side Note: Unfortunately, I cannot give up the Otterbox until Apple comes out of their gilded offices long enough to make a less fragile/better quality product.) ORIGINAL REVIEW I love this app and I use it often. However, it needs one minor tweak to make it 5-Star perfect. The circle detailing the sun’s path is always partially hidden behind the panel on the right side of the screen. If this panel were at the top or bottom of the screen, or if we could adjust the circle size, we would have the “complete picture.” ...and a 5-Star app.

I’ve used this app for years when creating landscape designs. It’s extremely handy for in the field with live view to assess light conditions, or with map view from the office for getting a good idea of light conditions and shadows from existing trees. It’s incredibly impressive how accurate and useful it is. Worth every penny

Brilliantly programmed and logically presented. Photography is about light, and this app provides all the information needed to plan where and when the light for a shot will be optimal. The tech support is outstanding. It paid for itself the first time that I used it.

Purchased for planning local sunset/moonrise photos. That capability alone surpassed my expectations. I was just reviewing photo opportunities for a quick over night trip and discovered even more information in this app: The ability to enter remote locations and extensive information on Sun, Moon, Milky Way and other celestial events. Only took me two+ years to discover that this tool is even better than I thought! I love this app!

Again many years later….Awesome support with this app. Hands down the best. Thanks for keeping this going over the years!

My favorite app when using my solar scope. Lots of other great features.

One of my favorite photography related apps. Well worth the subscription for a professional photographer/videographer/drone pilot. It packs so much information into such a small screen without it being confusing or overwhelming. Well done!

Such an amazing app for photography

It amazes me how much functionality is built into this app. It's intuitive, useful, and always works. Even though the app is for a fairly specialized application, it's the single beat app I have ever used.

Easy layout. The graphics are nice.

Would be a lot more complete if there was an Apple Watch companion app so we can have a complication with golden hour or whatever else we want for the local area.

You can see the sun’s path over an entire year by enabling the Solstices view. Then from any spot you can see how long it’ll be in the sun or shade in each season. This is very useful for planning landscaping and solar panels. The developer also responded quickly to a question I sent via email.

I’m using this app for locating Solar panels on my property and making allowances for shadows. For this application, the app is absolutely awesome. A must for anyone doing this kind of projects. Well designed and feature packed.

Honestly, I didn’t think that I would use it as often as I do. It’s useful for so many applications! Photography, planning walking routes, planning activities to do at certain dates and locations, and a lis goes on… The app is super insightful and rich with information. It’s designed well enough for someone newly introduced to it to be able to yield some value from it. Nevertheless, I encourage ones to invest a little bit of time to fully yield all of the value it can bring to you.

I had the Pro version on Android and it is worth paying for the Pro version again for the iPhone. Probably better than similar more well known apps that are promoted by photography gurus. And the app is actively supported by the developer who does not at the time of this writing collect personal data.

I downloaded Sun Surveyor about a year ago, and it was the easiest and quickest ten usd I've ever spent. (I'm quite stingy with my spending) Worth every cent. The application is orderly, organized, visually appealing, user friendly, the whole sha~bang. 10/10 !¡ Je Vous Remercie I am writing this review to request an update or fix to the widget apparatus. I presently have the Sun/Moon rise:set feature on my homescreen, but it does not display any information. Just the words "no permission" atop. I looked up if there were any ways to fix this and was not able to find any helpful solutions. So here I am.

I love this app. One feature that used to work, but lately hasn’t, is location searching. I copy/paste a location coordinates from google maps and normally it takes me to the spot. However lately, it just gives me a black screen. Please fix!

I’ve never written a review for an app before, but this one deserves one! I am an outdoor light portrait photographer. This app is incredible for judging the best time of day for my sessions, especially when they are at a new location. I love that you can drop in the specific address and see exactly where the sun sets & the location of the sun. Incredible!

But unfortunately v2.7 is unstable and always crashing.

This was worth the price. I now have a tool to help find the sunniest spots in my garden.

Very pleased with app. All the data I wanted is at my fingertips. And the support is unparalleled.

As a filmmaker and now solar panel capturer, this app is invaluable when it comes to tracking the sun! It is sooo accurate it’s unbelievable! Like right now I’m catching the sun coming up over my house to capture the most sunlight I can get. Using this app I was able to design my sun platform for optimum position! Also I have contacted support a few times and they have answered! You can’t go wrong with this app! Bravo!

Live view is my favorite feature.

This app is very helpful but only thing I have to say is the pictures show the moon and sun on the point but right now it isn’t for me any that’s pretty critical when planning for shots. Please help me out with that. I was hoping paying $10 from the lite version I’d have all great features

This is a great app. In photography light is everything, and with this you always know where the source of light will be from.

Please add Apple Watch support for this wonderful App , it will be so helpful to add a complication of the App on one of the corners of the Apple Which face. Please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

It is a fantastic app, the information provided helps with photography, garden, solar installation. Very accurate and great updates.

I am a drone photographer/videographer, and I use this app when I am planning the right time of day to shoot a particular subject. It’s accurate and fun to use!

I use this app to site solar panel arrays. A great tool to find the best sun exposure on a property so that the array won’t be shaded and rob power output . It also shows me where trees might need to be removed or topped to get full power harvesting during prime hours on either side of solar noon. I use the photos to guide arborists on where to cut the shading trees. It’s amazingly precise for this kind of work.

I give the app 5 stars because I like that the app is live. Assuming this is because it uses much of the phone’s built-in functionality. I also chose this app because of the tutorials available on Youtube and inside the app itself. This was a key decision maker for me. As a new user it will take some time to decide which settings will work best for my work as a photographer. There is a lot of information here for many different usage scenarios. I like that the cost is a one-time purchase. Not a fan of subscription based apps. Meanwhile I will use the app on a daily basis to become familiar with it. Thanks for a great tool.

It’s feature rich with loots of information about sun/moon and light conditions and orientation throughout the day which is incredibly handy for preparing for photography/film production shoots

The app is just an amazing tool for getting great sunset and sunrise pics. The map and live view tools are the best and make determining the best position, place, and time so easy. Also lots of data on golden time and blue time really useful for time lapse. Really great value and amazing app.

i depend on this app to help me plan photo shoots, it’s been indispensable. however, the sun angle line has stopped displaying, rendering it useless.

I purchased this app A few years to help me plan my photo shoots of interiors. I could see in advance where the light would be later in the day thru the windows and know which rooms to shoot at certain times. It just keeps getting better as time goes on. Thanks

This app is put together very well and has many useful (and fun) features. If you think this app will beneficial for you, I recommend you get it. You won’t be disappointed!

The latest version of this app let me add events such as full moon at sunset or sunrise into my calendar, set alarms and specify other entries. All entries are in local times at the locations I plan to shoot. Such entries in my calendar allow me to plan my shoots with high efficiency. Yes, its graphics help me visualize the lighting conditions and select my positions to take beautiful pictures. My day job sends me to locations around the world. This app is wonderful in helping enjoy my photography hobby. Great app.
