Here’s one iOS photography app that focuses less on filters and effects, and more on the quality of your shots by keeping track of the sun.

“For photo and film shoots, it is essential to know the position of the sun during the day so you can plan your setups in advance,” says Swiss-Development GmbH.

Sunrays has been designed to display the position of the sun for every hour, either on a map or on a neutral background, from sunrise to sunset, giving you a good idea of when is the best time to shoot something for great results.

You can either choose the location yourself or choose your city from a database of over 21,000 cities worldwide. To download Sunrays, you’ll need iOS 7.0 and $3.99 / €3.59. It’s natively supported on all iDevices.
