Sun’s path isn’t showing

I was so excited to use this to scout locations for photography but the app doesn’t work at all. Waste of $10. The app just opens my camera but doesn’t show the sun or the sun’s path at all. Just a regular camera screen. I tried calibrating and deleted and reinstalled the app. Still not working.
Awful

Such a waste of money. After hearing reviews from somebody on Instagram about this app I decided to buy it. Completely worthless I get more out of the Sun Seeker app for less money. Not being able to choose locations or a specific date makes this useless for me. At such a steep price for an app I would have expected a lot more.
Doesn’t work on iPhone SE

Simply doesn’t work. AR never shows up. Would like a refund, or some kind patch.
App not working anymore

The app is not working anymore, I’ve tried to calibrate it several times but will not show any sun direction. Also there is to app support or contact info.
Looks like the end

I’ve been using this app for years and it’s always worked well for me... until today. I just got an iPhone 11 Pro and iOS 13 and it looks to be the end of the line for the app. No updates for some time and it just doesn’t work anymore. It opens but no sun appears in the AR tracker. Too bad! But I’m glad I had years of use out of it.
Needs calibration adjustment

I like the ease of use. Simple for what it is intended. I think $10 is a bit too high for allowing only 1 function. Another app like star wall has similar function with AR view and offers much more other info. The sun position does not quite align with my view. I think if a calibration tool exists it would be much better. Something like you move the overlay sun to where the sun actually is and hit calibrate.... Does not work with ios13. Please update.
Love this app

I have relied on Sun Scout for my landscape business and appreciate the update for IOS 13. It is a great tool!
very cool

A specific application of augmented reality that works really, really well. Super smooth, fast and very useful if you want to know where the sun will be coming from at any given time. You can point your iPhone anywhere and see exactly where the sun will be, and even see where it will be at different times of the year. I've been using this for apartment hunting (to see where the sun will come in during the course of the day), and it's surprisingly accurate and intuitive. This seems perfect for photographers, campers, or anyone who needs to chase or avoid the sun!!
Does what it says. Great for free

Simple, but well executed app, congrats to the developers. Tested it at the beach today for umbrella placement and it was very accurate.
