Know exactly where the light will be.
Gloaming puts the Sun, Moon, and Milky Way onto your live camera at their real positions — with golden & blue hour times, the day's sun and moon paths, and your real horizon. Scrub time and watch the whole sky move.
What you get
The whole sky, planned.
Everything you need to catch the light and find the night sky — overlaid on the real world.
Live AR sky
Point your phone and see the Sun, Moon, and Milky Way locked onto the real sky at their true positions.
Golden & blue hour
A light timeline shows the day's twilight, blue, and golden hours, with a countdown to the next.
Sun & Moon paths
See the day's arc across the sky with hour marks and exact rise and set points.
Your real horizon
The actual terrain skyline for your spot, drawn from elevation data — so you see where the Sun sets behind a ridge.
Accurate Moon phase
The Moon shows its true phase and real size — with a one-tap switch between true and easy-to-see.
True north & on-device
Aligned to true north, and all the astronomy is computed on your device — fast, private, and offline.
Plan the light
Catch the good light,
every time.
Gloaming maps the whole day's light — night, twilight, blue hour, golden hour — onto one timeline. Scrub forward and the marker glides through it, telling you exactly how long until the next phase.
Behind the ridge
See where it sets
behind the mountains.
Gloaming draws your real skyline from elevation data, so you can tell — even in daylight, even from home — exactly where the Sun or Moon will drop behind a ridge. Line up the shot before you ever leave.
Free, private, and yours.
No account, no ads, no one watching. The astronomy and AR run on your device; the only thing that ever leaves is your approximate location, sent to an elevation service to draw the horizon — nothing that identifies you. The camera is never recorded.
