Home Screen Widget
Place a widget on your home screen to see solar time, sunrise and sunset moments, and where the Sun is in the sky. Tap anywhere on it for a quick manual refresh if you’re feeling impatient. -
Detailed Ephemeris Section
Get in-depth info: latitude, longitude, sun movement parameters, twilight phases, sunrise, sunset, equinoxes, solstices, and more. Essential for sundial installation or simply for keeping tabs on celestial events. -
Flexible Location Options
Set your location exactly how you like: pick from your own favorites, use your device’s GPS, select from a map, enter coordinates manually, or choose from an internal database of 20,000 cities—handy whether you’re on- or offline. -
Interactive Graphs & Plots
Explore curves like the Equation of Time, Analemma, and Sun Path. Move the cursor along the graphs to see specific values and understand how “real” solar time lines up with the clock. -
Year Customization & Data Export
Adjust calculations for any year you want, and export Equation of Time data straight to an Excel file for later analysis or sharing on your PC, especially helpful if you’re running Solar Info on BlueStacks. -
Sun Path with Horizon Masking
View the sun’s daily journey, complete with optional horizon masks or illumination ranges, ideal for custom sundial planning. -
Hourly Location Updates
The widget stays current with hourly auto-refresh, so you don’t have to lift a finger. If your time zone adjusts automatically, timing accuracy is pretty tight—typically within a few seconds either way.
Solar Info packs a scientific punch while keeping things practical and straightforward, all thanks to Tempus Umbra’s knack for turning cosmic numbers into everyday insights.
