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

You won’t be able to see the eclipse from everywhere so it seems pointless for anyone anywhere it can’t record anything useful 🤷🏻♂️
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.
Is it really such a great idea to point your smartphone camera at the sun? Won’t this damage the ccd?

Yes, which is why you need to use a solar filter.
Don’t know if you’re joking, but just to be safe: no need for a filter
edit: apparently I was wrong
“When shooting still images or video of a solar eclipse, one rule is paramount: special-purpose solar filters must always remain on cameras and telescopes during the partial phases (including the annular phase of an annular eclipse).”
It’s a good way to fry your camera. If you’re taking a single shot, you’re fine. But if you’re recording continuously, you can damage your phone’s sensor.
$50, and it’s yours.
Needs is a strong word.
Oh I’m going to do this. I’ll have 97% at my little cabin, and my husband is going to drive a little bit east to film the totality. We were planning to film anyway, so we might as well share it with NASA.
