Sun Surveyor (Sun & Moon) App Reviews

I almost never buy apps but I can’t believe Sun Surveyor only cost me $10. It’s accurate, educational, beautiful and fun to use. Not only that but the brilliant video tutorials are accessible right from the menu in the app itself. The free version gave me all the functionality I actually need, but the app is so gorgeous and fascinating that I only played with it for a few minutes before upgrading. I’ve been using iPhones for many years and can say unequivocally that this is the best app I’ve eve

Purchased for planning local sunset/moonrise photos. That capability alone surpassed my expectations. I was just reviewing photo opportunities for a quick over night trip and discovered even more information in this app: The ability to enter remote locations and extensive information on Sun, Moon, Milky Way and other celestial events. Only took me two+ years to discover that this tool is even better than I thought! I love this app!

Great app. use it all the time and highly recommend it.

Why no milky way core tracking like android?

Brilliantly programmed and logically presented. Photography is about light, and this app provides all the information needed to plan where and when the light for a shot will be optimal. The tech support is outstanding. It paid for itself the first time that I used it.

I’ve used this app for years when creating landscape designs. It’s extremely handy for in the field with live view to assess light conditions, or with map view from the office for getting a good idea of light conditions and shadows from existing trees. It’s incredibly impressive how accurate and useful it is. Worth every penny

I use this all the time to help people pick a good spot for a garden. Get used to the controls and you will love it.

One of my favorite photography related apps. Well worth the subscription for a professional photographer/videographer/drone pilot. It packs so much information into such a small screen without it being confusing or overwhelming. Well done!

My favorite app when using my solar scope. Lots of other great features.

Again many years later….Awesome support with this app. Hands down the best. Thanks for keeping this going over the years!

Such an amazing app for photography

Would be a lot more complete if there was an Apple Watch companion app so we can have a complication with golden hour or whatever else we want for the local area.

Easy layout. The graphics are nice.

It amazes me how much functionality is built into this app. It's intuitive, useful, and always works. Even though the app is for a fairly specialized application, it's the single beat app I have ever used.

You can see the sun’s path over an entire year by enabling the Solstices view. Then from any spot you can see how long it’ll be in the sun or shade in each season. This is very useful for planning landscaping and solar panels. The developer also responded quickly to a question I sent via email.

I had the Pro version on Android and it is worth paying for the Pro version again for the iPhone. Probably better than similar more well known apps that are promoted by photography gurus. And the app is actively supported by the developer who does not at the time of this writing collect personal data.

Honestly, I didn’t think that I would use it as often as I do. It’s useful for so many applications! Photography, planning walking routes, planning activities to do at certain dates and locations, and a lis goes on… The app is super insightful and rich with information. It’s designed well enough for someone newly introduced to it to be able to yield some value from it. Nevertheless, I encourage ones to invest a little bit of time to fully yield all of the value it can bring to you.

Awesome support with this app. Hands down the best. Thanks for keeping this going over the years!

I’m using this app for locating Solar panels on my property and making allowances for shadows. For this application, the app is absolutely awesome. A must for anyone doing this kind of projects. Well designed and feature packed.
