Solar Eclipse Timer

I love the app!! But for a 2024 Eclipse… the app should NOT have woken up today in 2025 with April 8 2024 alerts!!

Used this for the 2024 USA Eclipse. Everything worked great. One year later, it’s alerting me again, so maybe it can’t tell what year it is. Not a big deal, gave me a reminder of what I was doing at this exact time last year. I do recommend, if you’re where it will be useful to observe an eclipse.

If you take the time to familiarize yourself with the app before the event it enhances your enjoyment of an eclipse. It lets you know when it’s safe to remove protective eyewear and reminds you to observe your surroundings and the horizon. I would recommend turning off notifications after an event is over. I was in a slight panic today when my app started to give instructions. I realized the eclipse I purchased for last year must have had only the month and day in its programing so I assume i

The UI is a bit barebones, but it gets the job done. The down-to-the second timing, when combined with custom limb correction, allowed me to capture Bailey’s beads at C2 and C3. 10/10 would use again.

I've used the app twice, in 2017 and 2024, and both times it worked perfectly. Whether you're planning to photograph the eclipse or just observe it, this app is essential. In the heat of the moment, it's so helpful to hear the voice prompts telling you what to look for, and when totality begins and ends. Thanks for a gret app!
