Extremely useful w/ missing features keeping it from 5/5. I use the free one for location scouts, and the precise data is invaluable for pre-pro. I'd 100% purchase if a few things were addressed: 1) The app header takes up a ton of space in the AR when in landscape, blocking ⅓ of the image. 2) I need to be able to capture full AR paths in a single image; ideally by stitching in app, but even the option to use the wide lens for a better view would be a help. Thanks for all your hard work!

Fantastic app! I live in my RV full time and I move around a lot. I use this app every time I get to a new location to find the sunniest spot (or shadiest). The free version is fine for me, but if you want to check the sun position on any day of the year, you need to get the paid version. I would do this if I was considering buying a house, for example.

It's a nice app, but the widgets are suck due to not providing a transparent background opinion. Otherwise, I'd give it 5 stars for how nicely layed out it is. But like most people, I don't want to completely block out my home screen picture with the widget. I just want to see the data for the items I select.
