The Google play store says only 500+ downloads, we've got to pump up those numbers

I get "This app is not available for any of your devices". Maybe I'm behind the times.

Odd, my phone is far from a flagship but it is only a year old.

You won't be able to see the eclipse from everywhere so it seems pointless for anyone anywhere it can't record anything useful 🤷đŸģ‍♂ī¸

I'd love to do this; but I'm in California and it looks like it's only gonna be visible near the east coast.

It's going on a curve from Texas through the middle of the country and then out through Maine, it's just that more of the population lives on the coasts. I've just given it a review, though, to hopefully bring some visibility!
