[RE-wrenches] phone app/shading programs

[Kirk Herander]

Jay,
I've used a couple iphone apps. One is from RBI Solar called "shading calculator". Rudimentary, but good for discovering distances between tilt-up / pole mount racks so they don't shade each other. The one I like and often use instead of my classic pathfinder is "Sun Seeker". Amongst other things you can take a picture with solstice and equinox sun paths on it. Neither requires wifi access to operate.

HI All,

I’m wondering what the recommendations are for phone app/ shading programs.


I used to have the Solmetric but they no longer support anything, and it won’t work with new IOS.

thoughts/recommendations.

thanks

jay


PS and if there are any that work without cell service?
