Lumos: Sun and Moon Tracker App Description & Overview

What is lumos: sun and moon tracker app? Intuitive yet powerful, Lumos accurately predicts the position of the sun and moon at any time, on any day, in any place. Whether you’re planning a photo shoot, a wedding, or a solar panel installation, tracking the sun and moon has never been easier!

Lumos is divided into six main modules:

• The augmented reality view harnesses the power of AR to visually project past, present, or future sun and moon positions (and moon phases!) onto your surroundings, letting you perfectly visualize your plans.

• The map view overlays the sun and moon positions for a given time and location onto a map of that location, letting you make plans from afar.

• The Street View mode works like the AR view, but it takes advantage of Google Street View to allow you to envision sun and moon positions for remote locations (requires Lumos Pro).

• The calendar view displays a simple list of rise/set times and moon phases throughout the year, letting you see the big picture at a glance. Tap a row to see the detailed ephemeris for that day.

• The notifications module lets you sign up to receive notifications for significant solar and lunar events, including: astronomical, nautical, and civil dawn/dusk, blue hour, golden hour, sunrise/set, solar noon, moon rise/set, lunar transit, and lunar perigee/apogee (requires Lumos Pro).

• The shadow length view calculates the exact length of the shadow an object will cast on a given time and day, letting you see the result both visually and numerically. You can also calculate the height of an object if you know the length of its shadow.


With an affordable one-time purchase of Lumos Pro, you can also:

• Search for a location by name or manually enter coordinates

• Save locations for later reference or offline use*

• Take notes on a saved location and have them readily available the next time you view it


*The map view and Street View do not currently support offline use

NOTE: The sun and moon positions calculated by Lumos are accurate to within a small fraction of a degree. However, as with any augmented-reality app, the accuracy of the projection is dependent on the underlying hardware. If you are seeing inaccurate positions, please calibrate your device's compass and ensure that you are not near any sources of electromagnetic interference (e.g. microwaves, computers, car engines, high voltage lines). Phone cases containing batteries are known to cause compass interference. You can also use the visual calibration tool to align the projection with sun’s current position. Please feel free to contact us if you continue to have issues.

Amazing app. Easy to use, it provides a ton of information in its free version. I will buy the pro edition mostly as a thanks. I am building a pérgola at home and want to project the shade it will give me using different configurations. This app saved me a lot of time and work. Thanks.

Pay for better. Like always you pay and then you buy it then it’s more money for better

Sooooo Coool!!!. I was able to figure out the best place to put our garden in about 5 seconds flat! What a neat and useful app!!!

Hunting info. Go to know anytime. Had app 2 years now.

Sun angles all day long all year long. I’ve been looking for an app like this for a long time!!! I can check the sun angles ion our house, flower beds and porch’s for any time of the day or year. Fabulous for builders architects and landscapers.

Amazing Utility. Helps me to know when is full moon for night street photography, su roses for my drone shots and same goes for sunset to captures amazing footage. Also helps me to know the position of the sun for any time of the day

Does exactly what it should. I have the pro version because it’s a one time payment, it’s Easy to use. No complaints. Thank you.

Amazing -& Free!. This thing is Incredibly Easy & intuitive to use, very Simple & So handy for multiple uses, photography, placing a solar set-up or structure you wish oriented towards the sun.. Or simply locating exact placement of the sun (or Moon!) throughout the day & year. -one of the Best apps.

Great tool for photography. Used this on vacation to know exactly when and where the moon would rise. Allowed me to capture a stunning moon rise over the ocean when it was 99.9% full. The AR part of this is simply spectacular.

From first minute.... From the first minute I was on the app a pop up came up everytime I touched the screen asking to buy the pro version. Disappointed bc I most likely would have if I could have tested it after the tutorial.

Couldn’t use it at all due to the Go Pro window popping up every time I touched the screen. Never got past jumping through hoops to get it started, then EVERY time I tried to move or search, Go Pro/Buy Now came on the screen which meant I couldn’t use the app! Deleted after just under 10 minutes.

Doesn’t work at all and no where to contact support!!. I’d love to give this a good review but the augmented reality doesn’t work at all, just opens the camera view but no sun or moon anywhere!! Can’t find any info on contacting customer service so I just spent $5 for absolutely nothing!!!

Nice, smooth, and simple. I like the app a lot and it seems to be accurate as far as I’ve found. There’s no fussing with extras, it’s simple and straightforward. If I could have anything added I only link to see fist and last light with the sunrise and sunset info it already gives. Thank you to the creators!

Perfect. Perfect visualization of where the sun will be--this has revolutionized my planning for photo shoots!

Powerful app for photographers/videographers. We often scout locations for future shoots and this app has such a user-friendly interface compared to a similar app we used to use!

Photography. Works fantastic. Able to see where the sun and moon are at all times. Thanks

Worth the money for pro. Great app for any photographer that uses sunlight. (A good majority) So helpful when imagining scenes and camera positions in a remote location for a future date. My only complaint is that the app doesn’t think I have compass calibration on, so augmented reality does not work. I checked my settings, and I do have compass calibration on. Devs, I am running on iPhone 6 at iOS 12.2. Please see if there is another function call for my hardware/iOS version that will work. Thanks. EDIT: ignore my issue. I opened it again after several uses and the AR started working and showing sun path. Updated to 5 stars

As a film maker this app is amazing. On tech scouts this app has made scheduling and work flow insight to a shooting day concise and predictable. Highly recommend.

Terrific Photography Assistant. The first BIG PLUS for me is the super fast customer support. I had two questions and sent LUMOS the Customer Support form. Within two hours, the founder of the App responded with the answers I needed. I used LUMOS yesterday to find the “golden hour” and sunlight location for a shoot on Austin’s Sixth Street. I also was able to install LUMOS on both my iPad and iPhone SE for one price. Already paid for itself.

Capable and easy to use. This app has all the features you need for knowing where the sun will be anywhere, anytime. Free for your current location only, but worth the upgrade for planning destination shoots etc.

Amazing app!. I needed something to make sure I can go jogging when the sun isn't up, or is at least in a good position - this is in an INCREDIBLE app and it's helped me out tremendously!

VERY INTERESTING. Both the kids and I find this app SO interesting. Kids love it. I do too and going to the pro version. Great for understanding the sun and astronomy!!

Easy and effective tool. A simple and very useful app for knowing the trajectory of sun and moon in the sky. It’s especially handy when you find yourself unplanned at a good photographic vantage point and want to know where and when the sun or moon fits into the scene.

Non-Pro Version Useless. I’m not sure what I paid $1.99 for. It tells me where the Sun is. I have windows, and I can see the sky. The app should just be $6.00 up front and let people decide if it’s worth that rather than making them waste $2.

Deserves Five Stars. I just installed this app! And I’m so satisfied with features and the fact that is free!!! You can pay for other apps they may have couple of more features that this one doesn’t, but they are so expensive. Enjoy!

Amazing app. Must use before buying apt. Just the right user interface to figure out where the sun will be anytime of the year. With the AR feature you can actually feel how the sun will look from the window. Thank you for making this app!!!

Simple and excellent, more than a toy too. While this is neat to just play around with, it’s also handy for planning campouts and events. I’ve also used it for planning cctv cameras where the sun won’t blind them, solar cell placement, and a bunch of other things.

Great for photographers. This is an excellent app for tracking the location of the sun throughout the day if your planning a photo shoot. Also the notifications feature is awesome because I can get reminders of the specific times of golden hour.

Great App. I use this all the time for sunrise and sunset pictures. A good idea to calibrate your phone when using. Follow app directions.

Super App for Filmmakers. This app is fabulous for filmmakers and photographers. You are able to use it to plan ahead and bring the right equipment based upon where the sun will be and the shadows it will cast.

Excellent.. Not the most "gorgeous" app to my eye but easily 5 stars for functionality and usability. It's exactly what I've been hoping for since iPhone 2007.

Simple incredible!. Great app. Has helped me plan amazing shots since day one. Worth every penny!

Great tool for the outdoor photographer. Also handy for a lot of other things.. Fantastic tool for the outdoor photographer.

Great app. This is an awesome app. I have solar on my rig and I can see just where to park so the sun charges my solar panels.

Love this app. This app has been helpful to me in numerous ways. Buying a house to confirm where the sun rises and sets. And for photography and videography so that I go to the right place at the right time to get the light right. And even to determine when the moon is close to the Horizon for certain shots. It always delivers.

Paid for the pro version, now it’s inaccurate.. The height of the sun in AR mode is not aligned with the app’s projection of the sun. It is impossible to calibrate it vertically, whereas you can horizontally to align with the time. This renders the horizon not true to my view, making the app useless. Pretty disappointed.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!. Finally, I can find the sun or the moon anytime I want, whether I’m taking a dump or facedown uncontrollably sobbing in a pillow on my bed. Washing grandma and need to see exactly what the sun is up to today? Zero problem! About to do a mafia style hit on some snatch but need to know if the moon is at the perfect angle? Not an issue! Do you need to be back home in time before you burst into flames from the rising sun? Is the app for you!!🦇 Anyhow, going to cut this review short. I have to go see the suns path of projection on September 26th 3084. 10-10!

A must have for any photographer.. Very precise app. I use it for time lapses and planning shoots at certain times of the day.

Helps my photography business.. I’m a photographer and I use this app to plan where the sun will be located before my Photoshoots. This works well in real estate photography when a client in another county/city wants the sun facing the front of the structure. Planning is a breeze with this app. Thank you for developing this!

Awesome app. I use Lumos often. It is accurate and useful. I’d like to see a few more features, such as a tool that can be used to make sundials.

Great idea..in practice doesn’t work well. Idk if it’s the connection to their server or what, but often times when I’m out in the field trying to figure out where the sun or moon will be the app defaults to pointing north.. which is never the case.

Unbelievably accurate!. The AR feature of this app is incredible. I use it for selecting campsites for photography. Easy to use!

Location Refresh gps was removed. Since their last upgrade I am unable to refresh my gps location

Address Text Not Visable. As with any AP they just cannot leave it alone. The new installation does not allow one to see what address is being typed in the search menu. Very aggravating when the search comes up empty because one may have typed a letter wrong. If it isn’t broke, leave it alone please!!!

The eclipse is coming and this app is awesome. The eclipse will happen here in Portland Oregon in a few days… And I was busy trying to figure out where the Sunil be in the sky so I can find a proper viewing position… Unfortunately it was cloudy today and I wasn't able to locate the sun. I figured there had to be a son tracker app in the App Store so I went searching for one that was free… Of all the free apps for tracking the Sun and Moon this one hands-down is the best. It's virtual reality option is especially handy. You can type in a time and a date and it will show you exactly where the sun will be located at that time. Great job guys keep up the great work. Joshua.

Awesome app very easy to use. This is a really easy to use worthwhile app

Simple and Powerful. Perfect for photographers trying to anticipate when the sun or moon will be in the perfect position. Easy to use!

Great features, not quite accurate. A lot of great features in this app, but hasn't been accurate in augmented reality mode yet, and thats why i got it. Saw it as a good tool to plan photographs out but i think its only good for a general idea. Even when i move the apps sun in line with the real sun it continues to move around, adjusts itself back to the wrong place. This may be a flaw of my IPad/IPhone though since its using its gps and location services to locate my position. Otherwise great idea for a photo tool.

Awesome Sun Tracking App. Such a great App for my Film and Photography production company you can view my images on Instagram at architectural_photography_film Or way_fun_film I use this app every time when planning filming for sunset & sunrise filming n photography. I depend on this app so much to make sure I’m not wasting my time or my clients time .

Impressed. I looked at a lot of sun apps but I found this one best for looking to buy an apartment. It probably has many other uses.

Great app. Well done!

Awesome👍. This is how you know an app is really good. You download the free version (with no intention of buying the full app) and after 5 minutes of using it and seeing how great it works it makes you want to spend a few bucks for the Pro version! Well done guys!

Lumos. Great app. I am a professional shooter and it aids me immensely.

Informative yet simple to use. Great little app. Happy to support by purchasing Pro. Now I have a quick look way to plan my sun / moonrise photos showing trajectory for any date or time from anywhere on a real map. You can Save Locations & even make notes & save. 👍

Not intuitve. Not intuitive enough for me

Great functions and UI. Great app with good UI

Great for see potential solar system shadowing. Perfect!

Good app but a lot of unfulfilled potential. Some great features in this app that if developed fully will make for an excellent app, but currently leaves one wanting. Features like moon phase names for more accuracy, holding a position on the map, the ability to see sun and moon together etc are necessary improvements awaiting development. A steady app that hopefully will be worked into a reliable app worthy of the price tag. Additional Update: Adjusting rating from 3 to 1 stars. No improvements have been made to this app, and since reviewing, for some reason all the rise and set times are completely askew and have been for some months now. It’s not a daylight saving thing, because the minutes are also inaccurate as well as the hour. The compass calibration is always a little off, too. This app is essentially only useful to find a fairly good approximate location of the moon. There are other superior apps for this information which offer more accurate info with more and better accompanying features. No longer recommend this one. 🙏 Update: Came to revisit and see if this app had improved 12/2020. Still offering totally inaccurate ruse and set times. Not a reliable app at all. 😟

Augmented reality stopped working. The sun's path stopped appearing so app is now useless

Crash. Was great for a week then couldn't open app at all without it crashing.

Awesome App. Has everything you’d want to know and very easy to use. Great for photography when trying to plan future shoots around golden hour.

Good app. User interface is okay and sometimes the calibration is a little off but it does the job

Amazing!. This is crazy! Simple but amazingly helpful. I’m in Solar Electrical Design. This simplifies everything. Now prospective Solar customers get it.

Just not accurate. Perfect for landscape photographers wanting to prepare their shots with the sun. It's also cheap, which is awesome. Unfortunately it's frequently off by 2 hours. I can't depend on this app.

Does what’s wanted. Sun angle, sunrise & sunset for any day. Virtual sun. And moon. GPS location not always so accurate. Probably better on the paid version. I like it better than the other free alternatives on my iPhone 6S

Ok tracker!😐. This game is really fun but when they explain it,it is still confusing. I got to understand this game over a bit of time. Overall it is a pretty cool tracker 😘😘😘😘

Works great. Exactly what I was looking for. Quick and easy. Thanks.

Best solar/lunar estimation app. Lumos is an invaluable tool to estimate daylight for video production and location scouts! So good!

Taurus Landscape. Great way to see amount of sun for turf installs

inbound information portal for sale. this is a plate scraper app bs . uploaded then get the low down on what you collect and sell be upfront τry truth ! if you don’t want to tell [ us ] — { γομ } all don’t get this app. ~Ξ

Very Illuminating!. Great app. I will use it to make a sundial.

Isn’t optimized for iPhone X. Been a whole year since it’s come out and this app still isn’t optimized for it.

Fantastic. This app is awesome.

Excellent photographical tool. Know precisely where the Sun will be throughout the day. And how it will effect your work. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Ugh Apple Maps. Switch to GCP and Google Maps

Feng Shui of Fibonacci. Outstanding! I love the street view!

Great AR view of Sun, useful and accurate. This is a great app, it works perfectly after a little calibration, for me. The display of the sun arc is perfect for understanding solar energy availability for your roof and side of your house throughout the year! Prior to finding this app, I was trying to check the sun position for every season from a window on the side of the house and by watching the roof and taking pictures. I would like to see a few additions for the pro version, 1.) let the notifications also be setup based on current weather conditions - I don’t need to know it’s perfect sun for photography if it’s an overcast day. 2.) on the shade calculator, provide a way to setup trees around your house and enter their height, then show on the street view how that appears at any season with the sun at its arc during that time, for example I have a lot of trees blocking the back 1/2 of my roof and part of the sides of my house, but it will be real hard to calculate how much sun energy I can get at those locations if the trees are shading those areas and it’s hard to calculate or see that in Lumos Pro now, I would also need to enter some type of setup on the height of the house I think as well as the shade calculation must include the higher location of the roof and sides of the house based on the height of the house too. 3.) provide a way to display more of the arc of the suns path where it actually is, and then a lower point indicating the time at that position as I have to keep raising and lowering my phone to see the times on the arc as they are above where I can see them in AR. 4.) calculate actual sun energy reference points that will be available at 4 seasonal points of the year and based on a square footage of solar panels, so in: equinox, and 2 solstice points, and maybe one total for the whole year (average expected solar energy that can be generated with xx number of panels, which can be saved in setup).

Fail. Doesn’t work. Sun same up miles from where it said.

Wow. Just awesome. Just so awesome.

Amazing. So precise and helpful for photographers that need to know the position of the sun and moon any time

Lumos. So far so GOOD.

Must have!!!!. Best app!! Great tutorial!

Photographic tool. It’s great for knowing where the sun will rise or set

Stopped working. For some reason this app has stopped working. If reinstalled and run updates. Works fine in friends phone...

Works great.. Very helpful for video or film production

Very inaccurate and waste of money.. This app gave me 3 opposite directions of where the sun will rise in a period of 4 hours. Last time I used it I was looking toward the sun and it said it was the opposite direction. Trash app.

Download Now. Super Dope and easy to use app download it now

This is awesome!. I use it when checking my solar panel performance. Very cool.

Great. Works great. No issues found. Recommend.

Excellent. As a Solar Designer this is Great tool.

I love this app. Thank you. I love this app. It’s very accurate

The free version does little. You can only access your current location when using the free version. This a rather serious limitation.

Buying a House with a Pool?. This will show you how the sun shines on your pool, every day of the year!

Great App. Im an amateur photographer. This app really helps with planning sunrise and sunset locations for shooting. Absolutely worth the pro payment.

Wasted $2. First, you pay $1.99 to download that app, but if you actually want to use it…$3.99. Just be upfront and charge $6

Luminous Pro. Very well done and useful app.

Great App!. Great app and great features.

Much less that I was expecting.... Much less that I was expecting after read current “user reviews” and the developer information.

Jy580. Great app!

I don’t have any money to get you it’s just. amen thank the lord I pray you god god will

It doesn’t work!. I

Love. Handy

Great app!. Easy. Very cool. And helps me keep 👁 on the 🌌

Amazing. Cant believe it’s for free!

Everything I ever wanted for tracking the sun and moon. A

Not accurate. When you’re u can see the full moon or the sun totally off position from Lumos overlay, you know it’s poor quality iPhone SE 3rd gen

Great tool for video/photo. Works super well.

So useful. I do HVAC. This help me solve problems. An indispensable app for a near giveaway price.

Really buggy. The rise and set times are not accurate and are jumping around a lot.

Best rise/set app. So cool to see the augmented reality. And pro is worth it too!

Is pro upgrade a monthly cost, annual, Life???. The app offers an upgrade but I can’t find anything about what the cost covers. Will it be a monthly fee? Or a 1 time payment?

Landscape. Helped me so much in landscape architecture

Great AP. Very good tool.

Islanddirector. This app is fire!

Happy to support your work. Pro is a great app. It‘s highly useful for filming. Thanks.

Love It. Just what I was looking for!

It’s half way there. app should show summer and winter solstice.
