Description
If your work or play requires sunlight, Sun Scout is built for you. Turn your iPhone in to a magic lens. Point it to the sky and understand where the sun will be and when it will be there.
* romano01, US App Store – "This app has come in handy more then once this week alone. While working on a feature film called "fairhaven" the gaffer and I (key Grip) needed to find out where and when the sun would be for a scene… well after i pulled out my Sun Scout App. everyone started downloading it!!! It is well worth it."
* WPSHM, US App Store – "This should win a gajillion awards for usability and simplicity. I love it!!!!"
Please Note – Sun Scout uses your device's compass. Like all compasses, Sun Scout is adversely influenced by metal in buildings or vehicles. Sun Scout is only as good as the iPhone's compass and is prone to a variable margin of accuracy even under fair conditions. Please do not base high-value production decisions solely on Sun Scout. Confirming them using sun charts and a technical mission during the time of day of a future shoot.

Ratings and Reviews
Good app but needs improvements
I would give this app 5 stars if:
- I could select exact geographical region via google maps
- I could select exact date instead of being limited to the 15th of each month
- there was numerical information regarding the angle of the sun and compass direction.
Another great idea would be a favourites log to save ideal lighting conditions for specific areas. And perhaps an alert/alarm to remind you when ideal times approach.
Simple and effective
I am in the solar business. I use this app for quickly determining if large objects are going to block the sun at any given time of year when I'm selecting a location for an array. I can pick a spot and sight over a treeline or obstacle while setting for different months of the year and make sure I will never have a shadow touch the array. It’s simple and quick. Great app!
