Shadow Line is an interactive globe viewer for Sailfish OS that shows the real-time day/night terminator across Earth. See at a glance where the sun is shining and where darkness has fallen.

Features:

  • Real-time day/night shading — the terminator line updates continuously
  • Add locations from a built-in list of world capitals or enter custom coordinates (including GPS)
  • Sunrise and sunset times for each saved location, refreshed every minute
  • Tap a location to fly the globe to it; drag to spin freely
  • Cover page shows a mini globe with a countdown to the next sunrise or sunset for a pinned location
  • Polar day and polar night detection
  • Solar calculations based on the NOAA Solar Calculator algorithm (±1 minute accuracy)

Looks very pretty, and very convenient to look at multiple clocks! However, there is something seriously wrong with rendering of the globe. Moving it around is very jittery, and the app easily skyrockets to 100% CPU or more (multiple cores I guess). It seems like there is some intense computation (which itself can probably be optimized) being done on GUI thread. The app also crashed, then managed to crash the system UI somehow after restarting it.

Love the design, though, and will definitely replace the worldclocks app with this once it doesn't eat the CPU! This is on the Jolla Phone 2026.
