The app gives you access to astronomical and natural data in an innovative and smart way. The home page gives you a summary of everything you need to know that day. From there, you can drill down into any of the main categories to get more and more detail. Moving through time is quick and easy. Just slide the screen left or right to move the clock ahead or back, or if you want to pick a specific date, tap the date in the toolbar.
It's both a work of art and a really useful tool. It will help you learn, appreciate, and benefit from nature every day. There is no other app that combines all of this data, and all of these features, in such a beautiful and ingenious way. The American Almanac is an app that people keep, and when you buy it, I think you'll agree.
Major features include:
• WEATHER: Tides, 7-day forecast, long range forecast, averages.
• ASTRONOMY: Rotating sky map, sun, moon, tides, stars, planets, constellations, sky watch, day and night length, twilight, eclipses, the seasons, meteor showers, dark time.
• GARDEN: When to plant, frost dates.
• ASTROLOGY: Best days, moon sign, the zodiac, Chinese zodiac, planting by the moon.
• OUTDOORS: Best fishing and hunting days.
• DATE & TIME: Holidays & observances, world clock, odd holidays, time zones, religious holidays, and unusual calendars.
Weather and tide data is subject to availability.
I got the first almanac app a while back and I love it so much that I got this one. And the hazmat hijinx game as well. The developer of these apps has a way of really humanizing the use of a smart phone or any technology that has really been lost over the years. It’s made for the person to use and enjoy and I don’t get this cold need to stare obliviously into a screen for no reason. I learn something new everyday when I consult the almanac app for weather and today’s quote and start to explore more. It informs me about the area and Mother Earth. Really grateful for this one.
I have had the old almanac app and this is a direct upgrade. I highly recommend this app to everyone.
As the title says, this is a fun to use , attractive, and may I say info loaded app. If you like the current version you will love this one.
I read it every day. New app is great. Will need tweaks to smooth out some jumpiness.
Main dashboard provides everything you need to know for the day. With quick access to explore the category further by clicking on today's data, or you can use the swipe left or right to move forward or back in time. So helpful in a moments notice to provide sunrise/sunset/mid,dayTimes-starPostions-dayOfTheYear-daysLeftInSeason #giftCardNoBrainer
? I. Like the other one better , was Easier to. Read. I. Enjoyed the old one. Just how I feel. 2-14-16. Will ever get It back. Sorry. You feel you had to change It..
I like the improved $1.99 app. It looks and works so much better. The only frustrating thing is the Constellation Map. I'm from the Midwest and the East and West orientation is reversed for some reason. They need to fix that.
