Description
I've always liked wearing a lunar complication on my Apple Watch. There is something both visually delightful but yet also slightly geeky about it. But I was unable to find a complication that provided an astronomically accurate moon display...which just kinda bothered me. So I made Geneva Moon.
Geneva Moon seeks to provide a highly accurate, visually pleasing indication of what the moon looks like right now, right where you are. My goal was to make it so that if you look down at your wrist and then up into the sky the images you see should match.
It includes a robust set of complications for every watch face type.
Choose between either a visually rich 'actual ' appearance or a more simplified version, to fit your own personal style.
The main display indicates the current azimuth and elevation of the moon along the horizon along with a visual indication of its phase and orientation.
Rotate the Digital Crown to shift forward and backwards through time and see how the moon will shift (tap on the screen to reset to now)
On Apple Watches equipped with a compass (Series 5) you can have Geneva Moon orient itself towards the actual moon to make it easier to locate the moon in the sky.
Thank you for considering Geneva Moon, I hope you enjoy having the moon on your wrist as much I do.

Ratings and Reviews
Mostly accurate
The app looks fantastic on the Apple Watch and most of the time the moonrise and moonset data is correct.
However on occasions, especially at quarter moons, the data is one Day out. For example today is September 29, 2021 in London and the moonset data is for September 28.
A great complication
This is a great looking and useful complication. It shows the moon exactly how it looks in the sky. The graphics are excellent with a lovely transition between the main and info screens. The new addition of full, quarter and half moon dates in the future are good too.
A number of reviews say that it can’t be installed of it is bought on the iPhone. This is not correct. It has to be installed using the App Store on the watch. To do this, go to App Store, scroll to the bottom and select Account. In there, select Purchased where you will see the app listed.
Works beautifully!
I see a few reviews listing this as a con, and saying the app didn’t show up on the watch or phone. All I can say is it worked just fine for me, and the app works perfectly.
There is no app on the phone, only on the Apple Watch. All this does is add a complication to the faces and provide a very simple app. What it does, it does well though. The moon phase works perfectly and is more accurate than the stock complication.
Certainly worth the cost for me, and the addition of an accurate and aesthetically pleasing moon complication is welcome.
