About Eclipse Chaser Mobile
Updates coming soon!
Sorry about the long time between updates, but I am now getting ready for the Great American Solar Eclipse of 2017! I've done a minor update now to get the app working again. However, a completely redesigned user interface is coming, complying with the Material Design Spec, along with speed and usability improvements.
Thanks for the patience.
Uses precise astronomical data to calculate the local circumstances of solar eclipses from 1900 to 2100. Using your device's GPS you will be able accurately calculate the local circumstances for past and upcoming solar eclipses. Find the locations and paths the Moon's shadow will take across the Earth. Animate the Moon's shadow and locate the shadow in real-time on the day of the eclipse. Simulate the view of the Moon and Sun on the day of the eclipse from your location.
Find out exactly when the eclipse starts and finishes for your location with countdown timers.
Be ready for the total eclipse in August of 2017!

An eclipse map is good, but not usabble within this app. It keeps on locking to your current gps location. Not what you want. No time indication on the map. How can you prepare for your eclipse viewing location if you only have the info once you're there. We need the info upfront, which this app does not provide... sorry, but this is not usable.

This has the most detailed map of totality I've been able to find. The animation is great as well. My main goal was to find eclipse duration for a given location, which you can do by switching the map to "manual" mode and entering a city (took me a minute to figure out).
