About this app

Before clocks divided hours into digital numbers, humanity looked to the gnomon—a simple vertical pillar casting light and shadow upon the earth to understand the turning of the year.

Gnomon brings this ancient cosmological instrument to modern iOS. Built for mindfulness, astronomical curiosity, and quiet reflection, it reveals the 24 Solar Terms and 72 micro-seasons through the purity of light.

KEY FEATURES

• Pure Astronomical Precision: Powered by an offline, deterministic VSOP87 planetary engine. Pinpoints the exact cosmic instant the Sun crosses every 15° celestial longitude—shared simultaneously worldwide, translated to your local meridian.

• Living Solar-Noon Gnomon: Watch the noon shadow lengthen toward the December Solstice and shrink toward the June Solstice. Scrub through the year with smooth gestures to witness Earth’s tilt reflected in pure geometry.…

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
