Embark on a breathtaking lunar journey with Lunescope! 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔 This isn't just another moon phase app; it's a spectacular, interactive 3D simulation that brings the moon to your fingertips. Experience the moon in stunning detail, right down to the shadows in the craters and earthshine on the dark side. Lunescope has been recognized as a Google Play Editor’s Choice and featured in Yahoo! News and Appolicious for its stellar stargazing capabilities. ✨
With Lunescope, you can change the date and time as seen from your location with simple touchscreen controls. The phase tracks your every move, providing an immersive experience. Use two fingers to spin the moon itself and explore the far side, zooming in to see lunar features up close. 🔍
Lunescope boasts features you won't find in any other moon app: instantly view phase, crescent angle, libration, rise/set times, and nearest syzygies for any date and location. Zoom in for a detailed lunar map with up to 2500x magnification, revealing intricate details of all surface features. It also shows supermoons, blue moons, and black moons, and displays all lunar eclipses with exclusive visualizations. 📅
Customize your experience by changing the phase via touchscreen or direct date entry, and rotate the 3D moon simulation with a two-finger drag. Choose between high definition or maximum realism imagery, including dynamic shadows of craters and mountains. The Lunar Calendar provides a month's phases at a glance, while the data pane offers additional details such as azimuth, altitude, distance, apogee, perigee, and zenith. 🔭
For astronomers, Lunescope includes options that make it the perfect companion to your telescope. Configure notifications for phases, eclipses, and more, and enjoy the convenience of a live wallpaper and resizable home screen widget with optional moon info text. The Wear OS watch face shows the same imagery, plus abbreviated data, and supplies moon data and imagery via complications to other Wear OS watch faces. It also includes a Wear OS Tile to show moon phase and data alongside your existing watch face. ⌚
Fully optimized for Chromebooks and tablets, Lunescope (formerly Moon Phase Pro) is more than just a phase—it's an immersive lunar experience! 🚀
