> You are going to view an apartment on a rainy day – and want to know if it has a sunny terrace?

> Photographers who need natural light to get their subject or scene properly framed can use SOLight to find the best time or location to get those perfect shots.

> Film Production. Film production is expensive and time is of the essence so using a SOLight, directors, set builders and lighting crew are able to synchronize the best daylight and know the direction of the sun or its current position.

> Solar Energy Installers (DIY and professional) – Figuring out the optimum position for solar energy collection is crucial for installers to make the most of the solar energy available.

> Builders/Upgraders – Adding to an existing building can be made easier as knowing how to track the sun means finding out where light and solar heat or shade is available and at what times of the day.

> Architects and Planners – Visit your target development location and quickly record the direction of the sun from any point.

Using SOLight, see the exact track of the sun live or for any chosen day from any location on the planet, all shown conveniently as an image on your screen!

Sunlight is a commodity we can all do with or without depending on the circumstances – those with too much need to know how to find the shade and those with too little need to maximize the amount they can access. Using SOLight it is possible to accurately determine the amount of available light (or shade) and the length of time it is incident!

> LIVE VIEW
This mode is an instant way of seeing the position of the sun relative to wherever the device is pointed. If the sun is not in view of the device, an animated sun arrow helpfully points the way to the current sun position, realigning itself in real-time as the device is re-oriented.

Built in compass display shows the precise direction the device is pointed at so when sun track images are recorded.

> SUN PATHS
Automatically displayed Winter/Summer Paths– In the display, the red and yellow lines above and below the suns current (white) track indicate where the sun tracks at the highest and lowest points of its seasonal travel.

Sun tracking curves are displayed with an easy to read timeline so the time of day when the sun passes a particular point, or the time shading starts/ends can be read by simply looking along the sun track.

> COMPARE
Date View – Set a new date. The display will update to show data about the position of the sun and its track relevant to that date.

Detailed information about the track of the sun and its position at any time is available right on the screen or in the Detail View.

> SUN PICS
Save your sun track image or share the picture instantly via email – location scouts and realtors can send an image of their screen containing all the sun position, sun track, time and location information to an email address or save the taken picture on the device for later use.

Zu ungenau bzw keine Korrektur möglich?!

Die Sonne steht auf dem Handydisplay einen Daumenbreite weiter entfernt, eine Korrektur ist so wie ich gesehen habe nicht möglich 😏. Wie zB bei PeakFinder AR könnte man diese Korrektur einfach machen. Hier schiebt man einfach die Linien direkt auf die Berge. Leider gibt es diese Funktion nicht...

Wrong Sun Position

The Sun is aprox 90 degrees offset on my iPhone 8. No way to correct it. Too bad. Worthless like this

Leider zu ungenau

In der Zeit, in der ich es mittels iPhone 6S probiert habe, hätte ich erst eine Übereinstimmung von echter Sonne und berechnetem Sonnenstand, trotz guter Kompassgenauigkeit. Alle anderen Tests waren komplett falsch und die echte Sonne war gefühlt um ca 90Grad weiter weg vom berechneten Standort. Für mich nicht zu gebrauchen und schade um das Geld.

Zu ungenau!

Diese App lässt sich nicht kalibrieren. Tatsächlicher Sonnenstand weicht erheblich ab. Größtes Manko sind die fehlenden Einstellmöglichkeiten.

iPad - Querformat : Update

Update ist bereits eingereicht - bis zur Veröffentlichung: Bitte die Ausrichtungssperre am iPad aktivieren. So funktioniert auch das Querformat in der Live-Ansicht.

Sehr gut ... aber

... seit dem Update kein Querformat am iPad möglich, das geht leider gar nicht!

Verkehrte Angabe

Leider wird der aktuelle Sonnenstand falsch oder sehr ungenau angegeben. Eine App, die auf diesem Feature aufbaut, erfüllt nicht den Zweck!

Super

Perfekt gemacht. Für Leute wie uns, die gerade ein Grundstück zum bauen suchen super um zu sehen wann wo die Sonne ist. Genau so habe ich mir das vorgestellt.

Perfekt für Fotografen

Ich bin Architektur Fotograf diese App nutze ich fast täglich. Einfach klasse, so kann ich genau sehen wann und wo die beste Sonnenposition für das Foto ist.

nicht für iOS 7

stürzt sofort ab. Nicht zu gebrauchen. Auf iOS 7-Update warten.
