Sunclock is a comprehensive astronomical clock with an analog dial, providing precise information about sunrise, sunset, true noon, and the length of the day. Additionally, the various twilight phases – civil, nautical, and astronomical – are clearly displayed.
A special feature is the display of the golden hour and blue hour, which can be used specifically to plan lighting conditions, such as in photography.
It also includes moonrise, moonset, and the current moon phase.
The dial offers various layouts: a double scale with 12-hour and 24-hour displays, a classic 24-hour version, or a special spiral design. Furthermore, numerous customization options are available in the Clock Gallery – including color and size adjustments.
Sunclock can be used and shared as an app, widget, or wallpaper.
If you want it to be really big, Sunclock can also be installed on an Android TV or Chromecast, allowing astronomical data to be displayed on large screens.
Time Concepts from the Past and Culture
In addition to modern time data, Sunclock takes into account historical time systems that divide the day into twelve unequal hours from sunrise to sunset – such as Byzantine Time, Roman Time, Athonite Time, Horae Temporales, Zmanim, the Jewish Hour system, the Arabic Alaturka hour, and many more.
Alternative systems with six or eight parts of the day, like Rāhu Kalam (Vedic astrology), the Japanese Wadokei, or the Chinese 時辰 system, are also included.
Religious time measurements, such as the Roman Catholic Liturgy of the Hours and Islamic prayer times (with eight different calculation methods), are also supported.
Made by Man on Earth
Sunclock is not an automated AI product, but the result of human development and cultural engagement with time. Created on Earth – with a focus on the sky, rhythm, and light. The app brings together astronomical, cultural, and religious time phenomena in an illustrative way.
With interactive controls, any time and date can be simulated to explore cosmic events worldwide. For a particularly impressive experience, an automatic animation is available.
Ad-Free with Voluntary Support
The further development and maintenance of Sunclock can be supported through a voluntary in-app donation. This also removes advertisements permanently.
