Sunclock is an astronomical clock that provides a comprehensive display of various celestial and temporal information. The clock showcases essential astronomical data such as sunrise, sunset, true noon, and day length. Additionally, it features civil twilight, nautical twilight, and astronomical twilight, as well as the golden hour and blue hour. Furthermore, Sunclock presents data regarding moonrise, moonset, moon phase, sidereal time, solar time, equation of time, and coordinated universal time (UTC) on its analog dial.

The clock dial itself offers three distinct options: a unique double dial with both 12-hour and 24-hour markings, a classic 24-hour dial, or a spiral dial with its own distinctive design.

Moreover, Sunclock goes beyond contemporary time-keeping by including ancient time measurements. These measurements divide the day into twelve hours from sunrise to sunset and include Byzantine Time, Roman Time, Athonite Time, Lost Time, Horae Temporales, Zmanim, Jewish clock, Hebrew hour, Eretz Yisrael clock, old Arabic clock, Arabic hour names, and the Alaturka hour system.

Additionally, Sunclock accommodates alternative time systems that divide the day from sunrise to sunset into six or eight parts. This feature includes Rāhu Kalam (a period associated with Vedic astrology), Wadokei (a traditional Japanese clock), and 時辰 (traditional Chinese hours based on the earthly branches).

The clock also caters to religious timekeeping needs by displaying Roman Catholic Liturgy of the Hours and Islamic Prayer Times according to eight different calculation methods. It specifically indicates Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha prayer times as well as Tahajjud.

Sunclock offers a unique experience by transforming your device into an astronomical clock with an elegant analog display. While it accurately tells the time, its emphasis lies in highlighting the beauty of natural light by providing sunrise and sunset times, along with twilight periods. Moreover, photographers seeking the perfect "golden hour" or "blue hour" for capturing stunning light effects can rely on Sunclock's precise information about civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight.

In addition, Sunclock offers insight into the moon phase cycle. By displaying moonrise and moonset times along with moon phases, it enables users to anticipate moonlit nights or the darkest hours. Furthermore, Sunclock assists in predicting tidal patterns.

The Clock Gallery allows users to customize their time display by adjusting the size and color to their liking. With the option to create a personalized clock, users can share their creation with friends or utilize Sunclock as an app, widget, or wallpaper.

Interactivity is another engaging aspect of Sunclock. Users can swipe the screen to simulate any time and date, unearthing cosmic, cultural, and religious phenomena associated with specific hours and days. Automatic animation is also available for a seamless exploration experience.

Sunclock presents a diverse range of astronomical and temporal data in an elegant analog format. It caters to a wide variety of interests and offers a unique blend of functionality and beauty.
