About

GoldenHourly answers one question: when is golden hour? Open it and you see the answer for where you are, with a picture of the day's light, which way the sun sets and where shadows fall. Any other place or date is a tap away.

It's free and there's no account. The address bar is the save button: every place and date has a link you can bookmark or share.
