The Eclipse App has been developed by The Eclipse Company in partnership with the Planetary Society and Bill Nye as a digital tool for consumers to make the most of their eclipse viewing experience.
The app is available for both Android and iOS devices, and will offer customized countdowns for totality alongside a listing of events, the best viewing sites and parks where onlookers can maximize their experience. The app is thus perfect for science aficionados or curious consumers of all kinds to download as a way to prepare for the rare event.
The Eclipse App also features location-based functionalities to let users know exactly when they can expect to experience partial or totality, while also incorporating weather forecasts into the mix.
