The Eclipse App App-Analysen für 15. August

On August 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse will cross Greenland, Iceland, and Spain, and for a few quiet minutes the sky will go dark. The Eclipse App is your companion for the whole day: an interactive map of the path of totality, a rehearsal so you know what's coming, and a live countdown that guides you second by second, from first contact to the moment your eclipse glasses come off. ▶ YOUR ECLIPSE See exactly what the eclipse looks like from your location: whether you'll see totality, how long it lasts, how much of the Sun is covered, and when every phase begins and ends, down to the second. Outside the path? You'll see your partial eclipse times too. Preview your sky in advance, and turn on Day-of Alerts so nothing sneaks up on you. ▶ THE MAP Explore the path of totality from Greenland across Iceland to Spain. Tap any spot on the eclipse map to see its timing, how long totality lasts there, and how far it sits from the path. Comparing two towns? The map makes the tradeoffs easy to see. ▶ SUN POSITION In 2026, the eclipse hangs low in the sky in many places. See exactly how high the Sun will sit from your spot, and get a heads-up when hills, buildings, or trees might block the view. You can check historical cloud trends while you're at it. ▶ REHEARSAL Practice eclipse day before it arrives, at your own pace. Walk through every phase from first contact to last, learn when glasses go on and come off, and try the camera and recorder ahead of time, so the real day feels familiar instead of frantic. ▶ LIVE COUNTDOWN When the day comes, the eclipse countdown guides you in real time: what's happening, what to watch for, and exactly when it's safe to take your glasses off. An optional spoken audio guide keeps you hands-free. The totality countdown also stays live in your notifications, so a glance is all it takes. ▶ SNAP AND RECORD Take a photo without leaving the countdown. Scene mode captures the strange light around you, and Sun mode helps you aim and expose for the Sun itself. Or tap Record, put your phone down, and capture the sound of totality: the hush, the gasps, the cheers. ▶ RELIVE Afterward, press play. Your photos and recordings play back on the eclipse's own timeline, just as they happened. It's the closest thing to standing back under the Moon's shadow. ▶ GOOD TO KNOW - Completely free. No account, no subscriptions. - Available in nine languages: English, Spanish, Catalan, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Icelandic, and Japanese. - Useful anywhere in Europe and beyond: even far from totality, you can see how much of the Sun will be covered where you are. A note on safety: outside of totality, only look at the Sun through certified eclipse glasses or solar filters. The app tells you when, and proper glasses do the protecting. A total solar eclipse is brief, and it doesn't wait. We built this app so you can spend those minutes looking up. theeclipse.app/privacy theeclipse.app/terms
