This update adds a new local eclipse sky simulation. Tap an eclipse map pin to preview what you’ll see there, including the Sun and Moon positions, key contact moments, plus the time and peak eclipse conditions. Solar alarms now use the real terrain horizon for sunrise, sunset, elevation, and shadow-ratio alerts. You can also use rise and set controls to create custom elevation alarms that trigger only when the Sun reaches your chosen angle. Terrain horizon calculations are cached more intelligently, so terrain shadows and terrain-aware alarm previews load faster after the first run. Shadow maps also get a cleaner viewing option: you can hide the sun path compass whenever you want an unobstructed view of light and shade.

Terrain shadows are here. SolarWatch shadow maps now include hills and mountains, not just buildings. Get a clearer, more realistic view of how sunlight changes across the land around you, so you can plan with confidence when terrain blocks the sun. This update also adds shadow ratio alarms to help you spot when shade is likely to rise beyond your chosen threshold. We’ve improved alarm setup and the preview experience, making it easier to fine-tune notifications before you rely on them. Favorites and widget timelines are also more reliable across SolarWatch, Apple Watch, and your Home Screen, so your key places stay up to date wherever you look.

Meet the Solar Eclipse Catalog. Explore every solar eclipse from 2000 to 2200 with high quality data verified against published NASA eclipse records.

Get accurate, detailed local information for planning your trip, including local timing details you can use to schedule your viewing. You’ll also get a brand new Eclipse Countdown Widget, designed to help you keep track of the next big event at a glance. Everything in this update is built in preparation for the August 2026 total solar eclipse.
