App Description

One of the easiest ways to become a happier person is to experience more sunlight every day. Skylight can help make that happen through a beautiful app experience designed for everyone.

Create a routine around sunrise every morning. Remind yourself to step out at solar noon for a sun break. Take better photos by shooting during Golden Hour. Start getting outside to see the sunset more. Gain a better sense of sunlight lost and gained through the seasons and adjust your routine to make sure you get enough light. Motivate yourself through the winter months by reminding yourself that days are getting longer. The uses are endless but the goal is the same - better living through more sunlight.

Skylight includes a universal app for iPad and iPhone, an Apple Watch app with complications, and three widgets. The Apple Watch complications show you how much sunlight is left in the day, or when upcoming events like Golden Hour are taking place. The complications are a beautiful addition to the watch face and offer one of the most effective ways to use the app. The Today Widget shows you the app information in a quick, glanceable form, so daylight info is always at your fingertips, either in your Today view or with a 3D Touch on the app icon.

Features include:
- Beautiful fluid visual display showing the position of the sun over time.
- Comprehensive notifications & alarms for daily and yearly sun events.
- Three different configurable widgets: Year Graph, Daylight Graph, and Gradient.
- Apple Watch app and complications with daylight clock and events.
- Year view, showing the entire year's daily sun events with a simple drag of your finger.
- Detailed event views, describing each sun event and showing the earliest and latest. dates on which it occurs.
- Date picker to see sun information from dates in the past or future.
- Location picker to see sun events and graphs for anywhere on earth.
- Multiple time modes, including specialized modes for photography and science.
- Support for all display sizes and device orientations.
- Spotlight support, so you can just type "Golden Hour" from your phone's home screen to pull up today's info.
- Skylight can optionally use GPS in the background to ensure notifications are correct even if you change location.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
