Description

I've always liked wearing a lunar complication on my Apple Watch. There is something both visually delightful but yet also slightly geeky about it. But I was unable to find a complication that provided an astronomically accurate moon display...which just kinda bothered me. So I made Geneva Moon. Geneva Moon seeks to provide a highly accurate, visually pleasing indication of what the moon looks like right now, right where you are. My goal was to make it so that if you look down at your wrist and then up into the sky the images you see should match. It includes a robust set of complications for every watch face type.   Choose between either a visually rich 'actual ' appearance or a more simplified version, to fit your own personal style. The main display indicates the current azimuth and elevation of the moon along the horizon along with a visual indication of its phase and orientation. Rotate the Digital Crown to shift forward and backwards through time and see how the moon will shift (tap on the screen to reset to now) On Apple Watches equipped with a compass (Series 5) you can have Geneva Moon orient itself towards the actual moon to make it easier to locate the moon in the sky. Thank you for considering Geneva Moon, I hope you enjoy having the moon on your wrist as much I do. —Dave

    App is nice and complication works ok. Had an isssur where it said ‘Failed to update location’ and defaults to Greenwich UK. Had to go to phone to allow the location sharing, now it works fine
  • Very impressive app

    Ive been disappointed by so many apps that don’t show the moon phase and orientation as it really is. This app does a great job showing the phase and the orientation correctly and can be added as the numerous complications. Also very pleased with the use of the AW5 compass and the ability to scroll and see the motion of the moon with the appropriate orientation. Very well done! The only thing I would want is the ability to increase the font size some for us old eyes. There’s plenty of space on the apple face so it would be nice as an option. Thanks
  • Beautiful, but flawed

    This is a beautiful and superior replacement for the built in moon complication, as it gives a realistic rendition of not only the phase, but also the orientation for your current location. But the associated app has a fatal flaw: the moon set times are correct, but the moon rise times are for the previous day. If this bug were fixed, I would raise my review from 3 to 5 stars. I already missed a photo op because I relied on this app rather than my typical ephemeris.
  • Just what I was looking for!

    From the day I purchased my Apple Series 5 watch, I was bothered by the fact that the moon phase complication did not depict the visible moon phase accurately. On a whim I decided to google the moon phase and I saw a review for Geneva Moon. I purchased the app immediately and couldn’t be more happy with my purchase. David Smith has done an exceptional job developing an app that can be incorporated into any Apple Watch face. My Apple Watch has just ticked off one more box on the list of details that make a watch great.

    Originally, I gave this app 1 star, because I couldn't find it once I made the purchase. It was nowhere to be found. So for those looking, you have to go into the apple watch store on your watch and go into "purchased items" and dowmloit to your phone. Once it is on your watch, it will finally come up as a complication. It gives very detailed information about the moon and it's appearance in proximity to your location. Make sure to set the device to your location, otherwise you'll get dase readings because the default location is Greenwich, UK (unless you live in Greenwich, then disregard my review). I don't know why they made it so hard to find. All my other apps download without a problem onto the watch. But I'm glad I finally got it. It's worth it!!!!

    I love everything about this app! Thank you for making a better moon app and complication! Works great with Apple Watch Series 5 compass to show you where moon is in the sky around you. Please add something to complication to indicate Moon is visible at that time.
