*Skylight is a service that requires a paid subscription to show you forecasts* Do you ever wish you could know when those magical, gorgeous sunsets happen? Skylight is the new app from the Apple Design Award winning team of friends behind Halide Camera and Spectre that magically predicts what the quality of light in your evening will be. Skylight not only tells you when important events like golden hour and sunset happen, but does something magical: with the help of lots of weather and environmental data, machine learning and a pinch of magic, the app gives you a brief forecast. Is it going to be a clear, great golden hour and spectacular sunset, with a scarlet lingering afterglow, or a dim and cloudy glow on the horizon? Checking the app or widget will help you get out the door when you are chasing the light. POWERFUL PREDICTIONS The Skylight prediction model uses many atmospheric factors near your location to make a prediction about golden hour, sunset and afterglow. Golden hour is the period of time directly before sunset, when the light is at its most beautiful. The sunset period, when the sun starts touching the horizon, is a stunning daily moment when colors can be at their most dramatic. Finally, the afterglow of a sunset is the period of time when the sun’s light can still color the sky and clouds in beautiful, vibrant colors. Weather forecasts only tell you if you are likely to see clouds, or low visibility. With a quick, scannable forecast and extra information about conditions, Skylight takes out the guesswork when it comes to the most beautiful light of the day. Whether you are trying to plan a photoshoot or simply love beautiful sunsets, Skylight can be a fantastic utility to check every afternoon. GORGEOUS DESIGN Skylight is made by Lux, a group of three friends with a passion for making gorgeous, innovative apps. We previously brought you Halide Camera, the Apple Design Award winning camera app for iPhone and iPad, and Spectre, the iPhone App of the Year of 2019. Skylight builds on our tradition of making thoughtfully crafted, beautiful products. The app’s colors and iconography changes with the quality of light, and every feature and screen was designed with care. HANDY TOOLS Use the beauitful, quick app as it is or place one of Skylight’s widgets on your home screen to stay informed about the light near you. FROM YOUR TINY TEAM We truly love making apps — it’s truly our dream to create something like Skylight, and we hope you love it. If you like the app and the work we put into it, we’d love to hear from you with a review or rating, or a message! Thanks for your support — we couldn’t do this without you. COMPATIBILITY Skylight is available on iOS 15 and above, for iPhone 6S and 6S Plus and newer devices. PRIVACY AND LOCATION Skylight needs Location Services to create forecasts for your local light. Skylight uses background location services by default for constantly updating forecasts and to update your local forecast requiring you to repeatedly open the app. Just a note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. }

Why is there no Live activities to monitor approaching sunset times? Would be a higher rating if you added this.

I beta tested this and found that this app doesn’t provide nearly enough functionality to justify paying for a subscription. The “predictions” regarding the golden hour quality are laughable at best. Pro tip: your weather app mostly like will tell you when sunrise/sunset is. Some weather apps even tell you when Golden Hour is, that’s really all you need.

These forecasts could be random, or fabricated, as there's no way to see their accuracy. Is it snake oil?

Great design but a subscription not justified imo. Sorry. Would have bought it as a single purchase.

Przewidywania warunków póki co sprawdzają się średnio, często są zbyt optymistyczne. Brak prognoz dla wschodów słońca.

Unfortunately the app requires a subscription, just to show you minimal informations. I’m sure the weather api has a cost, but then why other similar apps (equally well made and beautiful) can afford to make it a 3-6€ one time payment? And why, at this point, not just bundle this app with Halide, which was already another unnecessary subscription?

It’s been accurate for my location, which is not an easy place to predict weather. My only request is that you include sunrise as well. Then I can know if I need to get up early if the sunset is looking mediocre.

This update helps out northern friends. This time of year, areas such as Norway won't see a post-sunset "Afterglow," and this bug fix ensures the Skylight interface handles things properly.

This update makes a number of small adjustments to alignment and color, and fixes a bevy of tiny bugs. We've also added a "Demo Mode" if you want a taste of the app before you start a trial. We're excited to hear your feedback! Just email us at support@lux.camera. And if you enjoy Skylight so far, be sure to leave us a review, as it goes a long way!
