AfterhuePlan the next three evenings
The Outlook shows sunsets and sunrises for the next three days as score ranges with a confidence level, because days further out change more. Saved places let you check a cabin, a beach or a friend's city. Free covers tomorrow's band and one place, and Pro covers the rest.
Coming soon to iPhone
What does the 3-day outlook show?
Each day is a row with the date, the band and a score range, the sunset or sunrise time, and a confidence level. Tap a row to see the reasons for that day. Days beyond tonight show a range such as Glowing 52-68 so the app does not claim precision it does not have.
A switch at the top moves between Sunsets and Sunrises.
What is free and what is Pro?
Free users see tomorrow's band. Days after that, and the Sunrises view, need Pro. Tonight's full score and reasons are free for everyone.
| Free | Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Tonight's score and reasons | Yes | Yes |
| Tomorrow | Band only | Full |
| Day 3 | Locked | Full |
| Sunrise forecasts | Locked | Yes |
| Saved places | 1 | Up to 10 |
How do saved places work?
Tap the place name at the top of Tonight to open the list. Use my location adds your current position, and Add a place searches a city. Each row shows the current band and the sunset time. You can rename or delete a place from its menu. Places are stored as city names, nothing else.
Do I have to share my location?
No. You can choose a city and never grant location access. If you do allow it, Afterhue asks only while you use the app, reads one approximate position, and rounds it to about 1 km.
Why use more than one place?
Sunset conditions change over short distances: a coast and an inland town can get different skies on the same evening. With Pro you can switch between places and turn on Glow alerts for each, so the notification for the beach house does not depend on where you happen to be standing.
How do I read a day row?
A row shows the date, the band with its score range, the sunset time in amber and a confidence label. For example: Sun, Oct 4, Glowing, sunset 7:14 PM, confidence medium. Tap the row to expand it and see the reasons chips for that day. Days you cannot see yet show Pro in place of the band.
How does the outlook change as the day gets closer?
Each time the app fetches a forecast, the rows update. Ranges depend on confidence: a lower-confidence day gets a wider range around its score. When tonight's band changes during the day, the Tonight screen says so. This is the honest side of forecasting: a range that moves is better than a single number that quietly flips.
Where is the weather credit?
Apple requires attribution for WeatherKit data. Afterhue shows the Apple Weather mark and a link to the data sources on Tonight, in the Outlook and on the How the score works page, and the share cards that show a score carry the credit too.
Can I use it when I travel?
Yes. Add the city you are visiting as a place, or use my location once you arrive, and the sunset time, golden-hour window and score are calculated for that spot, in its own time zone. On the free plan you can swap your one place as you travel. With Pro you can keep a home spot, a weekend spot and a trip spot side by side, and set alerts for each.
Frequently asked questions
How many places can I save?
One on the free plan and up to 10 with Pro.
Why are later days shown as ranges?
Forecasts are less certain further ahead, so the app shows a range and a confidence level.
Does the outlook work offline?
Sun times do. The score needs a forecast, so offline Afterhue shows the last score it fetched and says when it was from.
Are sunrises included?
Yes, with Pro, both in the outlook and as optional alerts.
