Sol: Sun Clock App Reviews

A surprisingly useful little app. Find solar noon and apply sunblock before you cook. Use it to find the right time to take scenic photos. I imagine there are other uses as well. Simple to use also. 2 years later App is still under active development. The interface has been tweaked a bit to add some polish. Still very good at what it does. Sometimes an app doesn't need to have a million different functions. Simple can be awesome. A few years later: still awesome, still being polished. Super app

One of my most indispensable apps. The interface is user-friendly and the information is unbelievable. I’m a photographer and an earth scientist, and I can’t even begin to explain how valuable this app is. If I have a smart device, this app will be on it!

I love this app. I am alerted when the golden hour is happening which is a great time to take pictures. It indicates the hours in the day and night and the seasons.

I’ve been using this app for several years now. Noticed after updating my iPhone to IOS 18.0, that selecting a day other than today is not correct…seems to be a month ahead. For example, if I want to check what time Sunrise occurs on October 28th, I have to select September 28th to get the correct time.

If only I let this app influence my actual life more than I have. I plan to write about this because it is so important not to let the clock rule our lives.

i hope this app stays for a long time—been using since 2013 and still love its simplicity and graphic beauty. i like the alarms, i use to stay in tune w/ solar noon and sunset. the round graphic helps me digest the phases of light, is fun to use.

I use this app frequently and it is incredibly intuitive, user friendly, and very informative. Thank you for bringing this fine app forward. jmb

Easy to use, simple, and straightforward, and I’m surprised at all the uses I have found for it – – between travel planning, photography, and just organizing my day outdoors.

For years, I’ve used this app to plot daylight and nighttime hours as well as the time in between. I’ve also taken many screen shots of the app in various states to regale friends. I really hope the publisher will continue to update the app … but I know nothing is forever. I would gladly pay to continue to have this app in my library. Thanks, Juggleware!

This app has been a constant on my iPhone for over 10 years and I love it

I wish it had UVB rise and set times (40 degrees) kind of like the golden hour times. Golden hour maxes out at 20 degrees so it can’t be used for this the way it’s programmed. I also wish it had widgets. Other than that it’s one of the very best apps out there. I have to use a combination of Sunrise Sunset app, SolarWatch app, Daylight % app, Sun Exposure app, and this app, to get all the data I need.

This is one app that I use lot. Easy to use and fun. Love it !

Does what it says, has an attractive UI & I especially like being able to set alarms based on sunset, dusk, etc. with offsets. Nice. Haven’t found it’s equal. Just the best.

Recently learned: You need to swipe the area under the date to show more info. Double-tap that to start or start a newsfeed animation. Favorite feature: set alarm for best time to go for a hike. Feature request: shadow of gnomon should indicate an approximate sundial effect.

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.

Beautifully designed, intuitive to use, very useful & informative. Love that alarms can be set relative to solar periods. Thank you & I look forward to future updates. Highly recommended

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 :)

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!

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

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.

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.

I use this app several times a week. Love it!
