Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

New: a 0–100 Tonight Score with the best 2-hour window, a Milky Way core planner, real ridge lines on the sky map and AR, star-hop guides and constellation photos. SunTrace visualizes the sun and moon's journey across the sky in a beautiful, minimalist chart — right on your home screen. NEW IN 1.3 • Tonight Score – tonight's stargazing score from 0 to 100, with the best 2-hour window and the reasons behind it (7-night outlook with Pro) • Milky Way planner – when the galactic core is visible tonight and this month, plus a Milky Way band on the sky map and in AR (full-year heatmap with Pro) • Real terrain – the sky map and AR draw the actual ridge line around you: "Hidden behind the ridge, clears at 10:10 PM" • Star-hop guide – step by step from bright stars to the constellation you want • Constellation photo – in camera AR, show just one constellation's lines and name, take the photo, align it, then save or share. Free photos carry a small SunTrace watermark; Pro removes it. Phone cameras mostly capture the brighter stars.
