Lumos is divided into four main modules:
• The augmented reality view harnesses the power of AR to visually project past, present, or future sun and moon positions (and moon phases!) onto your surroundings, letting you perfectly visualize your plans.
• The map view overlays the sun and moon positions for a given time and location onto a map of that location, letting you make plans from afar.
• The calendar view displays a simple list of rise/set times and moon phases throughout the year, letting you see the big picture at a glance.
• The shadow length view calculates the exact length of the shadow an object will cast on a given time and day, letting you see the result both visually and numerically.
With an affordable one-time purchase of Lumos Pro, you can also:
• Search for a location by name or manually enter coordinates
• Save locations for later reference or offline use*
• Take notes on a saved location and have them readily available the next time you view it
*The map view does not currently support offline use
NOTE: The sun and moon positions calculated by Lumos are accurate to within a small fraction of a degree. However, as with any augmented-reality app, the accuracy of the projection is dependent on the underlying hardware. If you are seeing inaccurate positions, please calibrate your device's compass and ensure that you are not near any sources of electromagnetic interference (e.g. microwaves, computers, car engines, high voltage lines). You can also use the visual calibration tool to align the projection with sun’s current position. Please feel free to contact us if you continue to have issues.

Nice, smooth, and simple

I like the app a lot and it seems to be accurate as far as I’ve found. There’s no fussing with extras, it’s simple and straightforward. If I could have anything added I only link to see fist and last light with the sunrise and sunset info it already gives. Thank you to the creators!

Worth the money for pro

Great app for any photographer that uses sunlight. (A good majority) So helpful when imagining scenes and camera positions in a remote location for a future date. My only complaint is that the app doesn’t think I have compass calibration on, so augmented reality does not work. I checked my settings, and I do have compass calibration on. Devs, I am running on iPhone 6 at iOS 12.2. Please see if there is another function call for my hardware/iOS version that will work. Thanks. EDIT: ignore my issue. I opened it again after several uses and the AR started working and showing sun path. Updated to 5 stars
Amazing app

Easy to use, it provides a ton of information in its free version. I will buy the pro edition mostly as a thanks. I am building a pérgola at home and want to project the shade it will give me using different configurations. This app saved me a lot of time and work. Thanks.
Couldn’t use it at all due to the Go Pro window popping up every time I touched the screen

Never got past jumping through hoops to get it started, then EVERY time I tried to move or search, Go Pro/Buy Now came on the screen which meant I couldn’t use the app! Deleted after just under 10 minutes.
Easy and effective tool

A simple and very useful app for knowing the trajectory of sun and moon in the sky. It’s especially handy when you find yourself unplanned at a good photographic vantage point and want to know where and when the sun or moon fits into the scene.
Excellent photographical tool

Know precisely where the Sun will be throughout the day. And how it will effect your work. ??????????
