PhotoSignal

PhotoSignal is a custom weather alert app for landscape and seascape photographers. It helps photographers monitor saved locations for promising weather, tide, moon, and sky conditions, then sends alerts when those conditions may line up. Instead of repeatedly checking several weather apps, tide charts, moon calendars, and cloud forecasts, users can define the signals they care about and let PhotoSignal watch the forecast for them. Alert rules can include simple forecast conditions such as cloud cover, high clouds, wave height, wind, rain, visibility, humidity, and more. PhotoSignal also includes photography-focused smart checks for patterns such as fog potential, frost change, rain clearing, full moon timing, and moonrise or moonset near key light windows. The app is designed to be transparent. It avoids black-box “sunset scores” and fake certainty, showing the underlying signals so photographers can make their own decisions. Advanced sky context features can analyse nearby cloud and horizon conditions by direction, helping identify situations where light may break through or where the broader sky pattern matters more than the local point forecast. PhotoSignal sends upcoming, imminent, and cancellation notifications, making it useful for planning sunrise, sunset, fog, storm, seascape, tide, and moon-related photography opportunities. It is built for photographers who want to spend less time checking forecasts manually and more time arriving when the scene has a chance to work.
