LightCast Suite
Photography Weather Forecasts
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
You checked another weather app. It said partly cloudy. You drove an hour. The light was flat.
LightCast Suite makes sure that won't happen again. It's photography forecasts give you a score for tonight's conditions: golden hour quality, night sky visibility, fog density, drone flight conditions, and cloud cover. Not raw weather data. An actual answer that's easy to understand for outdoor photographers.
GoldCast: Tonight's sunset or sunrise on a 0-100 scale, with your best shooting window and a plain-language sky reading
StarCast: Milky Way visibility, Bortle class, moon phase, and dark window timing in one place for your astrophotography shoots
FogCast: Know when fog is likely to form and see expected density, timing, and burn-off windows
CloudCast: Cloud layer breakdown and light quality scored for your shooting target: portrait, landscape, wildlife, or long exposure
DroneCast: Wind, gusts, and visibility scored for what your exact drone model can handle
TriCast: exposure triangle, ND stops, star trail intervals, DOF, and timelapse calculators — every field tool you need, one tap away
Receive notifications when conditions cross your thresholds, so you never miss a shooting window. Explore conditions on a map, and see where conditions are better nearby before you make the drive.
Built to help photographers chase better light.
LightCast Premium is available as a monthly subscription ($2.99/month, after a 7-day free trial). Pricing may vary by region. Subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.
