Sun Tracker AR is an advanced sun tracking app with a clear and intuitive interface. The app provides many great features and visualizations and does not bother you with any ads.
+ Augmented Reality projection of the Solar path for the current user location.
+ Interactive 3D visualization of the Sun's position on the Map. A powerful way to visualize which side of a property will get the most sunlight.
+ Interactive 3D shadow simulation. Set a tree or a box on a spot on the map and project where the object casts a shadow throughout the year.
+ The map shows daytime and nighttime boundaries on Earth.
+ Along with the data visualization, the app also provides the essential ephemeris such as the length of the day and night, sunrise, sunset, golden hour and twilight (astronomical, nautical and civil), and Sun position (altitude and azimuth).
+ Upcoming Sun events: solar eclipses, solstices and equinox.
+ Right ascension and declination.
+ Plan events and set them into the Calendar. The Sun Tracker AR app creates a new custom calendar under your 'Calendar' and adds the selected Sun events into it. You can either set a one-time notification or create daily alerts.
+ Stay tuned with our widget. The widget displays the time of the sunrise and sunset and the time offset from now.

"We bought a new house in the desert. Selecting the correct solar shades is largely about understanding sun position during the summer. This app was PERFECT. Just select the day of the year and then point the camera out the window. The app superimposes the sun track and notes the position at different times of the day. Every window-covering designer / sales person should have this."
"Shows the position of the sun at any time throughout the day. A really great app. Very well-designed and written. I actually was only looking for something to show the angle of the sun above the horizon, because I like to wait until it’s only 30° or lower in the summer, to avoid sunburn. This app does that and a lot more."
"Very accurate!!! Very helpful when I work on my videography, and it’s free? You can’t beat that! Thank you!"
"Within 1 minute of using I’m beyond impressed. Excellent app!"
