Sunchase shows you exactly where the sun will be — anywhere on Earth, on any date. Whether you are planning a photo shoot, a garden bed, or a home renovation, Sunchase turns sun position into something you can see and plan around.
Drag one fluid time scrubber and watch the sun sweep across connected views:
• SUN PATH — See the sun's full arc for any location and date, with live elevation and direction and hour-by-hour markers for sunrise, golden hour, noon, sunset, and blue hour.
• MAP VIEW — See the full sun path anchored to any pin, with a sun-bearing ray and a dashed shadow ray that sweep as you scrub the day, so you know which way light and shade will fall.
• COMPASS DIAL — A clean north-up dial with live azimuth, an elevation gauge, and shadow-length data on demand.
ONE TIME SCRUBBER FOR EVERYTHING
Slide through the day and step across dates to see how light changes hour by hour and season by season. Snap instantly to sunrise, golden hour, solar noon, sunset, and blue hour.
LIGHT WINDOWS — SAVE YOUR SPOTS
Save the places that matter with names and notes, then come back to check golden and blue hour windows whenever you plan.
BUILT FOR THE WAY LIGHT WORKS
• Sunrise, sunset, solar noon, and day length
• Golden hour and blue hour windows, morning and evening
• Civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight
• Shadow direction and shadow-length ratio
PRIVATE AND OFFLINE BY DESIGN
All sun calculations run on your device using openly published astronomical equations — no network required for the core math. No account and no tracking.
WHO IT'S FOR
• Photographers and filmmakers chasing golden hour
• Gardeners checking sun and shade across seasons
• Homeowners and real-estate buyers judging natural light
• Campers, drivers, and anyone who plans around the sun
Chase the light. See where the sun will be — anywhere, any day.
