More than just interesting Sun Seeker is useful and occasionally an essential tool

Photography

Sun seeker is so helpful for planing when to shoot photographs or film. Weather it is exterior or interior locations. You can predict when the best light is going to be for you to capture the light, that you need to tell your story. It tells you the position, the direction and hight of the Sun. Is particularly helpful to give you this information for sunrises and sunsets. You can then schedule your day for when you’re going to do particular shots. It is very accurate and you could organise the exact time went to photograph.

Great app. One of my favourite apps.

I’ve used for years now. Great when I was looking to buy or rent a house to see how much sun / shade I’d get at various times of the year. Also great when I go camping to pick the spot with morning light and good daytime shade

Great Solar consultation tool

I use this app for consultations with clients. It helps in working out shading losses for my solar designs. It’s also great at working out time of day on satellite images. I believe this is also a great tool for people considering Solar for their home and want to understand the shading impacts and generally how well they can utilise solar energy.

We used this app to plan our challenging build..it’s brilliant, simple to use and we introduced it to our designer, who now refers her clients to it. The sun direction, for cool summer and warm winter is invaluable. Love it.
