Planit Live: Travel Companion 1.2.0

Everyone aspires to capture stunning photographs, but sometimes the end result can appear lackluster. The primary culprit behind this flatness is the absence of adequate lighting. Photography hinges upon the art of manipulating light, and landscape photography specifically relies on natural light. This is why exceptional landscape photographers relentlessly pursue optimal lighting conditions, seizing the perfect moment when the sun, moon, or celestial bodies align at the most advantageous angles or positions. Our newest offering, Planit Live, serves as a potent tool for pre-planning these picture-perfect instances. However, while on location, the app serves a different purpose and caters to the distinct needs of photographers. Thus, we have decided to introduce Planit Live, an app designed to provide unparalleled convenience and an enhanced experience for photographers when in the field.

Planit Live caters to not only professional photographers but also individuals who possess a camera, even if it's merely a smartphone camera. In fact, even if your intention is solely to witness the awe-inspiring beauty bestowed by ideal natural lighting conditions, you can avail yourself of this app's benefits. To ensure seamless usage while on location, we have streamlined its functionality to consist of a single use case: you require specific information, therefore you simply need to retrieve your phone, open the Planit Live app, obtain the desired information swiftly, and subsequently close the application. This entire process takes a matter of seconds. In most scenarios, you don't even need to perform any additional clicks in order to access the pertinent information you seek. Moreover, we have incorporated a reminder feature into the app's architecture. Users have the option to configure reminders prior to embarking on their photography excursions. Consequently, the app will promptly remind them once the designated time arrives to ensure they never miss these crucial moments. Additionally, if you possess an Apple Watch paired with your phone, these timely reminders will also appear on your wrist.

So, what kind of information does Planit Live provide? Primarily, it empowers photographers with vital data for both daytime and nighttime photography. This encompasses crucial details such as sunset and sunrise times, moonset and moonrise timings, golden and blue hours - all applicable during daylight hours. Meanwhile, for nighttime photography enthusiasts, the app supplies information such as the start and end times of dark nights, the positions of the Milky Way center in the sky along with the corresponding timings, as well as Bortle scale ratings unique to specific locations. In addition, it boasts a comprehensive 3D compass feature that accurately delineates the directions to the sun, moon, and Milky Way center at any given time of the day. Lastly, Planit Live incorporates an array of reminder functionalities including event reminders, time-based reminders, and interval reminders.

Naturally, this merely scratches the surface of Planit Live's vast potential. If you were previously a Planit Pro user, you will undoubtedly recall the myriad features we incorporated into our Pro version over the past few years. Rest assured that continuous expansion awaits Planit Live as well. We have grand plans to integrate an assortment of features tailored to photographers whilst they are on location, encompassing augmented reality (AR), location tracking abilities, and various weather-related functionalities. To express our gratitude towards those who have unwaveringly supported us during our years of operation, we have decided to offer Planit Live free of charge for the time being. We implore you to download the app, utilize its offerings, and furnish us with valuable feedback. Together, let's forge an app that is truly indispensable for photographers like yourself.
