A very handy sw which shows you sun path.

Update screwed it up

Anantr82 on

India

I'm a filmmaker and was a fan of this app until the update broke it. It doesn't tell me the position of the sun correctly anymore. Hope the developer fixes it ASAP otherwise it's money down the drain.

Outstanding application

Gene5335 on

United States

As a photographer and a weather enthusiast, I love this app. I set notifications for golden hour, sunset, sunrise, etc.

Always spot on

KJ7UCB on

United States

I’ve relied on Sun Seeker for years, first as a director of photography in the film industry and now as as amateur photographer to give me accurate real time and predictive information to plan for and deal with shoots. As an amateur photographer it helps me be in the right place at the right time to get the shot I want.

Does what it does perfectly

Feral Vermonter on

United States

While this app isn’t full of all sorts of bells and whistles, it does what it says on the box and it does so perfectly. Working in several fields I have found this a particularly useful tool for solar planning. It’d be fun to toss in things like moon paths and phases, but what would really make the app more useful in the field would be taking more offline—preloading maps and other info for sites with no available signal. That’s no complaint, though, just constructive feedback—I give this app 5/5.

Great App

Russellcharles on

United States

If for what ever reason you need to track the sun and know what the natural light is going to look like at anytime, this is the app for you.

This app is great but I hate it when the rating just pops up

Bluemindlikesky on

United States

Please stop having the rating function pop up when I am in the middle of using the app. Otherwise, great app.
