Lumy is a beautiful sun tracker + outdoor activities planner.

- Need perfect lighting for stunning photos or videos? Done.
- Planning a sunrise walk or sunset hike? Easy.
- Outdoor yoga or a sunshine break? Covered.

Whether you’re chasing golden hour, planning your daily dose of vitamin D, or keeping track of moon phases for stargazing, Lumy helps you make the most of natural light.

Now redesigned from the ground up - Lumy feels more personal, purposeful, and in sync with how we live. Inspired by sunlight filtering through a window, every view carries a subtle visual echo of light traveling through a pane of glass window.

Introducing Modes: Switch between profiles like Daily, Photography or Meditation to shape Lumy around your routine. See only what matters to you.

Lumy also supports iOS’s State of Mind feature, offering sun exposure suggestions based on mood entries from the Health app - a gentle nudge to step outdoors and connect with nature.

With seven-day weather forecasts, you can plan ahead with confidence. All sun and moon data is calculated entirely on-device, no tracking, no server requests. Only weather uses the internet.

Lumy works seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and HomePod. One purchase unlocks full access for your family.

Features:
- Modes: Switch profiles to suit your needs — from weekday planning to weekend golden hour.
- Sun + Moon Tracking: Accurate data, solar compass, and future predictions.
- Season Info: Displays both astronomical and meteorological seasons.
- Reminders: Customisable, repeatable notifications.
- Apple Watch: Complications, double-tap support, and Live Activities.
- Widgets + Control Centre: Quick access via Smart Stack and more.
- Interaction Upgrades: Time travel slider, Quick Access Button, fluid animations.
- Visual Feel: Simulated sunlight, shimmering glows, and improved Classic mode.
- Accessibility: VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, and more.
- Privacy First: Works fully offline (except weather). Your data stays private.
- Localised: Available in French, German, Japanese, and Chinese.

Lumy supports photographers, outdoor enthusiasts, and wellness seekers to stay in rhythm with the sun and moon.

What’s New

Version 2025.2.12

Lumy’s latest update is designed to feel lighter, smarter, and more in sync with daily life.

On iPhone and iPad
- Discover the new Liquid Glass design: UI elements feel gently illuminated, carrying a subtle echo of sunlight.
- Meet the Peek Panel: A lightweight element that quietly shows simple info like "Moon above horizon," then fluidly expands to reveal more detail such as "Sets in 20 min," fading back once you continue. It’s clarity at hand, without breaking flow.
- A refreshed Bottom Bar with Quick Access Menu that morphs naturally with interaction, making it faster to switch modes or jump around the app.
- Make the Quick Access Menu your own by reordering modes — the first three are always at your fingertips.
- The new Season widget now lets you choose between astronomical or meteorological seasons.
- Updated widgets and app icons now match the new home screen’s tinted and clear styles.
- And many thoughtful refinements across the app.

Foundation Model Features (iOS 26 + iPadOS 26)
- Mode-Specific Weather Insights: Smarter, activity-aware tips.
- State of Mind Suggestions: Personalized, context-aware guidance that adapts to your state of mind log.
- Astronomical Events: Tailored explanations that transform solar events into relevant insights for Photography, Hiking, Mindfulness, or Travel.
- Review System: A simple thumbs up/down or alternative request helps refine future insights, while keeping all data private on your device.

On Apple Watch
- Experience the new Liquid Glass design on your wrist.
- Quickly enable or disable sun event notifications right from Control Center.
- Add a configurable Season complication for astronomical or meteorological seasons.

- Added support for the latest iPhone 17 Series, iPhone Air, Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch Ultra 3, and Apple Watch SE 3.
