"As a landscape photographer, 'time is light' and this app is my secret weapon. The 3D AR overlay is incredibly accurate, allowing me to visualize exactly where the golden hour will strike months in advance. It has saved me countless hours of scouting and ensured I never miss the perfect shot."

"We used Sun Seeker at every open house during our home search. It was the ultimate 'BS detector' for seeing if a south-facing windows would actually get light in the winter. Now, I use it to plan my raised garden beds. It's a must-have tool for any serious homeowner or gardener."
