PrimeHour
Photography trip planner to plan every shot around the light
PrimeHour is a photography trip planner for iOS. Drop in your dates and destinations — every shot is scored by sun, moon, and weather, then built into a schedule so you're set up before the prime hour hits.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm the solo maker behind PrimeHour. 👋
It started from a simple frustration: I kept driving hours to a spot and getting flat midday light, or showing up "an hour before sunset" and missing the actual window. Weather apps tell you if it'll rain, nothing told me when the light would actually be good, here, on this date.
So I built it. It began as just golden/blue hour times, but I quickly realized times alone don't help (a golden hour under heavy cloud is still a wasted trip). So it became a 0–100 light score with sun angle, clouds, and forecast combined, the reason for the number, not a black box. The hard parts weren't the math; they were making a score feel trustworthy at a glance, wrangling timezones/offline/high-latitude edge cases, and reining in the AI so its gear + settings tips are actually accurate.
Free to plan unlimited trips; Pro adds the AI planning + full forecast.
Where are you shooting next? Drop a spot and a date and PrimeHour will tell you the best window! 🌅
How does the scoring actually factor in weather forecasts that are more than a few days out, especially for remote locations where conditions can shift quickly? Curious if that affects reliability.
