Moon Calendar

Great app. Very helpful for photographers. Chart tells when the moon is on the rise. Phases nicely done. Moon phases chart awesome! A must for moon gazers. Dec. 23,2017 I have been using this moon calendar app for a few years now and still loving it!❤️ I love the clean look and how easy it is to see what phase the moon is in. The actual moon calendar shows the days and different phases of the moon. I rely on this as a photographer to be at the shore as the moon is in the rise. The Azimuth chart is a big help too. Don’t hesitate to get this. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s 👍🏻 Feb 2021: Still enjoying Moon Calendar. Love the ease of use with this app. I like to know when the full moon is rising or which phase the moon is in. 5 ⭐️’s 👍🏻❤️

A nice straightforward app that does what it says in a simple-to-use manner. I'd like to see one change, though. You can set up notifications and even add the phase's date to the calendar, but the default message text--"Check out the Moon today!"--is worthless. The default text should be the phase's name, like "Full Moon" or "New Moon". I do like that the exact event time is listed--don't change that. With that in place, I'd like to have a button that populates the Calendar app for the entire year with the phases of the moon so I don't have to go through and do it myself manually.

I enjoy high resolution lunar imaging. It is important to make sure the telescope has well corrected and aligned optics. The digital cameras used should be ideally sensitive to controlling the fine balance between the dark and bright lunar regions with little smear. The atmospheric seeing conditions need to be quite favorable with as little turbulence as possible. Often the conditions are best when the moon is highest in the sky because we are then looking through less turbulent air. This program helps me plan my lunar imaging session by giving me the option to see how high the moon climbs throughout the day or night by simply moving the slide bar on the the lunar altitude page. This is a huge advantage to imagers or observers and of course also provides rising and setting times for your location. Usually I get fairly acceptable pictures when the moon is 60 degrees high in the sky or above. Under proper conditions you can now increase the magnification of your telescope to see fine lunar rilles, tiny craters and other fleeting details when the moon is at a high altitude above the horizon. While it is not a guarantee of the best seeing by any means this app is great when you can check out the Clear Sky Chart for your area. A combination of using this app and local Clear Sky Charts can really help your lunar imaging and observation experiences. Good luck. Al Paslow, Bethel Park, PA.
