Sunscape: Sunrise & Sunset app review: view sunset and sunrise times for locations all around the world

Introduction

In stark contrast so similar apps within this genre, Sunscape: Sunrise & Sunset features a bold black and white interface with very clearly presented information for the sunrise and sunset timings in your local area. It should perfectly serve those of you who want to remain in tune with the sun.

I’ve come across a few different solar tracking apps within the App Store and I really like the way this one has a layout and overall visual theme which is a far cry from some of the, shall we say, prettier developments of this kind.

Sunscape is ideal for those of you who prefer a no-frills approach so I would definitely recommend checking this app out if that sounds anything like you.

Let the Sun Shine

When you first begin using Sunscape: Sunrise & Sunset, it will use your device’s integrated GPS in order to determine your current location and more accurately provide the sunrise and sunset times for your local area.

You can also save multiple locations into this app, so this is ideal for keeping an eye on different time zones, perhaps for relatives who live out of town or for a foreign country where you’ll soon be traveling.

Once you’ve specified your location, you’ll see the sunrise time at the top of the screen and sunset time at the bottom, with your current location wedged right in the middle. I like the way you can also see how long ago the solar event took place or how long until it is due.

 

Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me

You can also create multiple alarms for each location you have stored, to ensure that you wake up at exactly the right moment to catch the sun rising, or begin winding down for the evening as the sun starts to set.

There are pre-created alarms already set to the sunrise and sunset times so this definitely makes things a little more convenient. I also think that this shows quite clearly that the developer has placed a great emphasis on user-friendliness and streamlined operation of the app in general.
