User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Esssential for solar eclipse chasers!
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!
★★★★★Worked great during the eclipse.
When I set it up on Monday all seemed fine. As the eclipse approached I started to get notifications. These notifications were spot on throughout the eclipse. This made it simple to take the photos I wanted. If I am lucky enough to be in the path of the 2026 eclipse I will use this app again. Thanks for making it available.
Good tutorial, like the audio testing, easy to setup, displays time for the local time zone. What worries me is the eclipse is tomorrow, but I am getting notices lik
★★★★★Not Accurate
Update. Thank for the clarification! I’ve edited my review.
The app says I am in the path of totality! I’m in South Carolina!!
★★★☆☆More cues would be great
I wished the verbal cues for:
take off your solar filter now,
look up for the stars,
remove your glasses,
etc.
★★★★☆Worked both in 2017 & 2024: here’s my request
Please add commentary for the reversal after totality. Thank you for an amazing experience.
UPDATE: Thank you for responding. I will gladly pay for the work you’ve put in. You make learning science cool and engaging. The fact you also have an APP is astounding, and it is accurate to the second.
