Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I'm Keita Morozumi from design studio brightone, creator of HikariYomi (光読み).
As someone passionate about outdoor photography, capturing the decisive golden hour or the Milky Way often comes down to minutes of preparation. But existing scouting tools often suffer from:
1. Being locked behind expensive recurring monthly subscriptions.
2. Breaking down completely the moment you hike out of cell tower range.
3. Clunky interfaces that ruin your night vision.
That's why I created HikariYomi:
☀️ AR Optical Finder with live solar/lunar ephemeris and golden hour countdowns.
🔭 24mm–135mm DSLR prime lens FOV simulator with 3:2 frame lines.
🗺️ Satellite map shadow casting and 16-day sunset predictions.
🌌 Milky Way Galactic Core elevation tracking + NPF exposure limits.
🔴 Darkroom Crimson night vision HUD theme.
⌚ Apple Watch companion & iOS lock screen widgets.
Everything is 100% offline-first. No accounts. No tracking.
The core tools are free forever, and the Pro suite is a one-time lifetime purchase ($7.99).
I'd be thrilled to hear your thoughts, feedback, and what features you’d like to see next!
