Description

What time is sunset today? Or sunrise tomorrow? When is the "magic hour" next March 20 in Paris? With Sol, you can check times and get reminders of solar events, at home or while traveling! Great for everyone looking to plan activities based on sunlight. Use it to remind you to walk the dog before dark, get up with the sun, or find golden hour time for that perfect photo. Sol: Sun Clock is the Swiss-army knife of sunlight tools with a design inspired by the simplicity of the sundial. Use it to plan your day, guide natural sleep cycles, get the best light for outdoor photography, make sure animals or kids are safe inside before dark, or to map out the best times to go running or fishing. * Be in tune: Sol will tell you when the golden hour is, how much sunlight you have left in the day or what time the next sunrise occurs. * Look to the future, travel around the world: Sol lets you find sunlight information for any date, anywhere on earth. * Find solar midnight and solar noon, and all three twilight (dawn and dusk) periods: astronomical twilight, nautical twilight, and civil twilight. Keep tabs on the next solstice and equinox. * Reminders and Alarms: Use Sol as a natural alarm clock that you can set to any event (like sunset, golden hour or solar noon), and the alarm or reminder time will adjust gradually as the days change with the seasons. * Automatic Location: Sol not only calculates the amount of daylight and sunrise and sunset times, but does so for any location in the world (both Northern and Southern hemispheres) by using your device's GPS... no network connection required. * Other locations: Optionally, use the built-in map to choose any location in the world by moving the pin, or search using the name of any city. * Optional location-aware alarms. Sol knows when you change with your location; and as you travel it will adjust any alarms you set relative to sunrise and sunset times. Create alarms for multiple locations around the world. * Detailed almanac information: Useful information about the day's length, sun's azimuth and elevation, equinoxes and solstices, and a friendly glossary that explains all the terms. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. However, GPS runs in the background ONLY if you have set location-aware alarms.

  • NOTIFICATIONS: Sometimes No means NEVER!

    What part of “No” is confusing regarding notifications? Not now, not later, not ever, at any time, under any circumstance: I don’t want any notifications, even if they each accompany a simultaneous $100 direct deposit into my personal Apple account! No Notifications!
  • I’m a time nerd.

    Best in its class. Combines fantastically prepared interface that has accurate and critical information for photographers, astronomers, and regular people needing solar positioning values as well as golden and blue photography “hours”. I have probably tried and bought 90% of these in the App Store and this is my immediate GO-TO tool.
  • Awesome and essentially perfect

    This app is amazing, and I use it on a regular basis. It shows me when sunset will be, and when it will get full dark. Also the alarms are amazing. I can set an alarm for six hours before sunset on Saturdays so that I can take a hike and get back before dark.
  • Love this useful tool

    Bought this years ago and never had any issues using the app, I love this app especially when traveling and planning events it is helpful to know when the sun is setting. Never felt this way about an app before, so good so reliable
  • Rise, travel or work at first light

    I commute by bike and start at first light to avoid competing with cars on my route. The ability to set the alarm for civil twilight and even offset it for a few minutes after that event lets me know when its about time to leave for work. Well built and joyfully used. Karma achieved :)

  • Best Sunrise Alarm

    This is easily the best sunrise alarm in the app store. Its quite a lot more sophisticated than that, but it suits my purposes perfectly.
  • New version is pitiful
