About this app
FlatSky Observatory transforme le ciel, les marées et les positions soleil/lune en observatoire mobile sombre, technique et satirique. L'app propose deux lectures réversibles des mêmes données. En mode Globies, l'affichage reste dans une lecture sphérique classique : globe, heure locale du port, soleil, lune, jour/nuit et marées. En mode Flat, la même base de données est relue dans une mise en scène terre plate volontairement absurde : disque, dôme, mur de glace, projecteur solaire et miroir lunaire. Les valeurs ne changent pas ; seuls les labels, la narration et la visualisation basculent. Fonctions actuelles : - sélection de ports internationaux ; - heure locale et fuseau horaire par port ; - positions soleil/lune calculées localement ; - lever, coucher et durée du jour ; - phase lunaire, illumination et âge lunaire ; - marées avec sources affichées quand disponibles ; - mode Glob…

What you can learn from FlatSky: Sun, Moon, Tides
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 6 screenshots above are FlatSky: Sun, Moon, Tides's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: FlatSky: Sun, Moon, Tides runs a dark set with one background colour (#0C243C) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #445C74, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
