About
Alpenglow started in 2016 as a passion project born from a simple frustration, looking out of the office window and noticing I had missed the peak of sunset. What began as a personal tool has grown into a trusted forecast app used by over 1.4 million photographers, hikers, and sky enthusiasts worldwide across 8 platforms.
Alpenglow is independently developed by Andrew Yates, a sole developer who combines a love of chasing sunsets with expertise in mobile development. Every feature is crafted with care, informed by real-world sunrise and sunset photography.
