iPhone
Make room for time outside. Find the light for a photograph, a walk, a hike, or a quiet moment. Six activities, saved outings, widgets, and no subscription.
Find your next moment outside with Heliory, a free sun and moon planner for iPhone.
Choose a place and date, explore the light, and turn a promising window into a saved outing. Heliory puts everyday planning, photography, and quieter time outdoors in one thoughtful place.
SIX WAYS TO PLAN
• My Day: see the shape of the day, from first light to dusk.
• Walking: choose a short stroll or a longer walk and see how it fits the daylight.
• Photography: explore golden hour, blue hour, and sun angles before heading out.
• Quiet Time: make room for a peaceful break outside.
• Hiking: plan around usable daylight with a return buffer.
• Moon Watching: follow the moon’s phase, rise and set times, and its overlap with darkness.
FROM AN IDEA TO AN OUTING
Search for cities, save favorite places, browse dates, and keep your outings together. Add an optional local reminder so the moment does not pass you by.
THE SKY AT A GLANCE
Explore sun and moon positions, review optional Apple Weather forecasts, and keep your chosen place and activity nearby with Home Screen widgets and Live Activities. Choose from three app icons to make Heliory feel your own.
PRIVATE AND SIMPLE
No account. No ads. No subscription or in-app purchases. Your saved places and plans stay on your iPhone. Sun and moon calculations work offline; city searches, maps, and weather need an internet connection. Apple Weather can be turned off in Settings.
Created by photographer Steven Smith, also the creator of Milky Way Scout and Shutter Scout.
Sun and moon times are planning estimates. Terrain, local horizons, weather, and iOS refresh scheduling can affect what you see. Hiking windows are not route or safety assessments.
