Description
Have you ever wondered what it takes to get those perfect outdoor portrait or landscape shots when scrolling through your favorite photography app of choice? Helios helps you improve your photos by notifying you of four magical times of the day.
INTRODUCTION
The golden hour is the period of daytime shortly after sunrise or before sunset, during which daylight is redder and softer than when the Sun is higher in the sky. The opposite period during twilight is the blue hour, just before sunrise or after sunset, when indirect sunlight is evenly diffused. Photography during magic hours is proven to result in better photos than pictures taken at any other time of the day. The app is available around the globe and works without internet connection. It's an essential tool for all photographers and videographers.
DESIGN
Helios features a beautiful design that follows iOS 12 design language with incredible precision, making the experience truly breathtaking. An elegant dark theme is also available.
FEATURES
With advanced tools like augmented reality lens and built-in light meter, planning your photos has never been easier. Powerful calendar and map tool can predict magic hour times, as well as sun and moon positions with extreme accuracy for days, weeks or even months in advance. By saving other locations, you can make sure you'll be prepared to capture the world around you wherever life takes you. Daily notifications help you stay up to date with slightest changes in time and duration of sunset, sunrise and magic hours.

56ace yo,
Love the app, just one request.
I love everything about the app and regularly use it to plan ahead or even day of for shoots. My only request would be if it’s possible to select a specific date for the map feature without having to hold the scroll bar. When planning for weddings or other similar shoots it’s helpful to know ahead of time where the sun will be throughout the day ahead of time when working with a set timeline.
PoolhallJunkey,
Good app, but interface needs work
This is a good app, but I find that the interface, while very pretty, is a bit difficult to understand. A vertical layout for the Blue/Golden Hour times would be easier to read, rather than the horizontal scrolling layout that exists now. The developer already has a vertical layout via the peek/pop 3D Touch function on the saved locations tab; please allow users to set this as their default layout :-)
The app would also be easier to read if the dates were always at the top of a given day, rather than the Today/Tomorrow labels that exist now.
Please also ensure that the times given honor the time format set for the phone, i.e., either 12-Hour time or 24-Hour time. Right now there’s some inconsistency here.

Good app, but needs to be updated
Before I start with the negatives, I have to say that this app is really useful. It gives accurate information about sunset, blue and gold hour, as well as a useful light meter for photographers. Despite this, it hasn’t been updated in awhile and it doesn’t work with iOS 13 dark mode and iOS 14 widgets. The AR mode is also broken, which really is a bummer. If you are ok with the fact that this app might never get another update, go for it. If not, spend your money on another app that has been updated to take advantage of your iPhone.
Dr. LebronFisherCurry,
The simple tool I use most.
As an aspiring photographer there are lots of apps that will help, heck I spent about $20 on different ones. This is the only app I still use however, it does a few things really well and that is a good app.
I personally will tip $20 is you can truly make this the only app I use by adding the moonrise and moon set (maybe even the moon “golden hour”?) to available data. Astrophotographers need to know!

One of my favorite apps!
Love everything about this app, I bought the upgraded version of this and was really excited! Just one thing though... my augmented reality camera is not showing up anywhere. I don’t know if this is a bug or a glitch, but I just wanted to see if there was a way I can get it back. Thanks!😁
Mtfield,
Great info, good UI, terrible widget
Very useful app. Gives you a thorough understanding of your daylight while on set at a glance. I rarely go into the app though. I use the widget. I love that the widget updates for morning and evening, but for the life of me the size of the text kills me. It makes me leave the widget “expanded” to get all three times. Leaving a widget expanded drives me crazy. Is this possible to be user adjustable? Small issue, but a constant frustration for me when using your app. Thank you for making this info available to me simply and accurately.
Burgerofmumbai,
Almost 5star - Just one thing...
App is great however, instead of showing individual times for sunrise, sunset, golden and blue hour, can you do a view showing two groups, one for AM and other for PM? I prefer not to scroll to see sunset and then golden and then blue if I can see these three together (for PM). Can ya please?
Monge87,
Photog must have!
Have used a couple different resources for time lapse and just standard photography sessions and this one has a beautiful interface along with all of the standard info that you would expect. The developers have done a great job, keep up the good work
Lindon T,
Great app just wished notifications worked
Well designed and effective app with features to keep you up to date with GH and BH no matter your location or for preset locations. I just wished that the notifications worked. Every day I have to reopen the app and turn the notification toggle back on.

Local times buried in settings
When searching locations in different time zones, it displays the times in your current time zone rather than the local time by default. This can be corrected, but it’s buried in the settings. It would make much more sense to show local time by default.
