Moon phase, moonrise times and lunar alarms, computed offline

MoonApp calculates moonrise, lunar transit and moonset for any location on Earth, handles the timezone properly, and says plainly when the moon does not rise or set at all on a given day, which at Norwegian latitudes happens regularly. It also reports the current phase, the illuminated fraction and the distance to the moon, and the dates of the next new and full moon. Home screen widgets in three sizes show today's moon, its rise, transit and set, and the dates of the next four phases. It can wake you by the moon rather than by the clock. Set an alarm for moonrise, for moonset, or for a fixed offset either side of one, and it recomputes as the lunar cycle moves rather than firing at a time you had to work out yourself. It never touches the network. There is no INTERNET permission, so it cannot, and the astronomical calculation is entirely local. Locations come from a bundled catalogue of 25,007 cities, the same catalogue the website uses, or from coordinates you type in yourself. Nothing you enter leaves the device: there is no account, no analytics, no advertising identifier and no telemetry of any kind. MoonApp is a functioning prototype, published to show what Stormberry AS builds. It is not a certified instrument, not a professional service, and not a substitute for an authoritative source. Check anything that matters against an authoritative source before you act on it. The web version is at https://moon.stormberry.as and the source is at https://github.com/StormberryAS/MoonApp under the MIT licence.

Releases

  • Oct 31, 2026 1.0.8
    1.0.8 adds home screen widgets in three sizes. The small one draws today's moon as it looks from your hemisphere, with the lit percentage. The wide one adds today's moonrise, transit and moonset for the place chosen in the app. The large one also lists the dates of the next new moon, first quarter, full moon and last quarter. Tap a widget to open MoonApp. No new permission. Full release log: https://github.com/StormberryAS/MoonApp/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
  • Oct 25, 2026 1.0.7
    1.0.7 changes nothing you can see in this app: the moon times, the alarms and the permissions are as in 1.0.6. It adds a separate build of MoonApp for Google Play, without alarms. This version, with alarms, stays on GitHub, Obtainium and Zapstore. Full release log: https://github.com/StormberryAS/MoonApp/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
  • Oct 25, 2026 1.0.6
    1.0.6 shortens the credits in the footer. It now names only what the moon calculation is built on: SunCalc's formulae, and city data from GeoNames and Kartverket, each with its licence. The typeface, icons and libraries are credited in the README and LICENSE instead. Nothing else changes. Full release log: https://github.com/StormberryAS/MoonApp/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
  • Oct 24, 2026 1.0.5
    1.0.5 gives the times screen a new top and bottom, in the manner of CheckLink. - The mark, name and tagline are now centred above the moon's figures. - The footer names everything MoonApp is built on, with a link to each source and licence, and adds the Stormberry icon row and a privacy line you can test by going offline. - Footer links open in another app; the app still has no internet permission. Full release log: https://github.com/StormberryAS/MoonApp/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
  • Oct 23, 2026 1.0.4
    1.0.4 makes alarms harder to lose and corrects the moon calendar. - With notifications off or turned down, an alarm still rings; open MoonApp to stop it. - On Android 12 with exact alarms off, alarms now ring through a notification instead of not at all. - A second alarm no longer leaves the first one ringing. - The next new and full moon are dated in the place's own time zone, and a transit alarm rings once.
