Overview

What is SunLight?

SunLight is a sun tracker and room light compass for iPhone and iPad. It shows sun direction and elevation, daylight phases (sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour, twilight, night), and a simple room scene so you can reason about light on a window, desk, balcony, or plant corner.

Who it is for

People placing desks, plants, or photo spots with natural light in mind
Anyone planning outdoor time around golden hour / blue hour
Users who want on-device sun math after location is available—not a weather forecast app

How to use it

Allow location when you want sun position for your place (or pick a map location with Pro).
Read the compass-style sun direction and elevation for now.
Scrub the timeline to preview how light changes across the day.
Open the room scene to approximate direct sun through a window orientation.
Unlock SunLight Pro once if you need any-date planning, map selection, room simulation, and live heading tools.

What it is not

SunLight is not a weather app and does not market AR features. It focuses on geometry of the sun and daylight timing you can plan around.

FAQ

What is SunLight for?

SunLight helps you understand where the sun is, how high it is, and how daylight will change through the day. It is useful for rooms, plants, photography, outdoor plans, and anyone who needs a quick sense of natural light.

SunLight highlights sunrise, sunset, solar noon, golden hour, blue hour, twilight, night, and the current daylight phase so you can plan around real natural light.

What does SunLight Pro unlock?

SunLight Pro is a one-time unlock for advanced planning features such as any-date sunlight planning, room sunlight simulation, map location selection, and live compass heading readout.

Is SunLight a weather or AR app?
