요즘 참 날이 길어지고 있다라는것을 절감하고 있는 시기인데, 썬드로이드라는 해와 달의 시간을 관리하는 프로그램을 소개합니다.
아침에 산행을 간혹 하고, 동해바다에 여행을 가서 해뜨는 시간등을 알기에 좋은 프로그램이며,
일출, 일몰외에 월출, 월몰 시간도 잘표시되는 프로그램인데,
유료인 Pro버전과 무료버전 두가지가 있는데, 마켓에서 Sundroid로 검색하시면 됩니다.

***** New feature: Sun tracker *****
This feature shows the path of the sun through the sky. This has many uses including garden planning, photography and even finding a shady spot to park your car.
The sun's path is shown as a line on a compass disc, where the edge represents the horizon and the center is vertically up. You can view this on a road map, satellite map, or a plain background. Compass rotation is supported on the plain background.
***** New feature: Alarms *****
As well as setting simple notifications for events, you can now set up alarms so you'll never miss a sunrise photo opportunity!

***** About permissions *****
In case you're concerned about permissions, here's what Sundroid needs them for. I'm happy to answer any question you have about security, so please feel free to get in touch.
· Internet access: Used to look up the name and time zone of your location, and for location selection using maps and search. Connects to Google only; there is no usage monitoring. Offline use is supported.
· Coarse and fine location: Allows Sundroid to get your current location (at your request) using GPS or networks.
· Prevent device from sleeping: Allows an alarm to keep sounding until you dismiss it. Otherwise it might be cancelled before you wake.
· Disable keylock: Allows Sundroid to show an alarm when the phone is locked so you can dismiss it without having to unlock the phone yourself. Keylock is re-enabled as soon as the alarm is dismissed.
· Start at boot: Alarms and notifications are cancelled when the phone is turned off, and this permission allows Sundroid to reset them.
· Control vibrator: For alarms and notifications.
가장 마음에 드는 기능은 위젯기능인데, 해와 달의 출몰시간을 위처럼 위젯으로 표시가 가능한데, 등산을 좋아해 야간산행을 자주하시는 분이라면 일몰후에 30분정도후면 날이 어두워져버리는데, 이런 프로그램을 잘 이용하시면 좋을듯 합니다.
프로그램에 들어가면 해와 달에 대해서 아주 정확하고, 다양한 정보등을 제공을 합니다.
중고등학교 지구과학 시간에 배웠던 그래프와 내용들이 아주 자세하게 나오는듯 합니다...^^
GPS 위치를 기반으로 해와 달의 위상을 제공하기도 하고, 위처럼 해뜨는 시각, 달뜨는 시각을 기준으로 알람을 제공하기도 합니다.
뭐 일반인이라면 위처럼 자세한 해와 달의 자료까지는 필요는 없겠지만, 위젯의 기능만으로도 상당히 쓸만한 프로그램이 아닐까 싶은데, 해와 달을 참 좋아하고 관심을 가진분이거나, 일출, 일몰 시간에 민감한 직업을 가지고 계신분이라면 아주 유용한 프로그램이 될수 있을듯 합니다.
