About this app

Sun Position shows you sunrise and sunset times, as well as the milky way, solar, and lunar path on an augmented reality camera view. Its handy data screen also gives you other useful information including moon rise/set times, golden hour and twilight times, and moon phase information. This data can be used for planning photography shoots as well as photographing the night sky.

The app has a map view which plots the daily sun and moon path relative to your current location. It also contains a widget for your home screen showing sunrise/set times for the current day and your current location.

This app is a demo of the full version of Sun Position, which is restricted to showing you sun position data only for the current day. To view data for any day of the year see our full Sun Position app (/store/apps/details?id=com.andymstone.sunposition).

- Plan a photography shoot - know in advance exactly when and where sunrise and sunset will be
- Interested in astrophotography? The app will tell you when the milky way will be most visible
- Viewing a potential new home? Use this app to find out when you'll get sun in your kitchen.
- Planning a new garden? Find out which areas will be the most sunny, and which areas are likely to be in shade throughout the day
- Getting solar panels? Check whether nearby obstructions will be a problem.

For more information on the data included in Sun Position see our blog post:

Great app for positioning the new house. I love sunrises with my morning coffee so it helped me know where the sun will rise to help position the kitchen window. Also use it to know when to get up to catch it. (does not let you know the position in the different seasons without the paid for version.)
