The app
A daily read on the sun, a live map of scored terraces, and the exact hour each one is at its best.
A one-glance read on the day and your sunniest picks — the moment you open it.
Every terrace, scored 0–100 for sun and colour-coded, updated by the minute.
See exactly when a terrace is sunny, the best time to go, and Chase the Sun from there.
The flagship
The sun moves — so should you. Zonnie builds a short walking route timed to keep you in the light: start sunny, hop on as the shade arrives, finish at a golden-hour spot. One tap shares it to the group chat.
What Zonnie does
A precise algorithm places the sun in Amsterdam's sky for any date and hour. No approximations.
Amsterdam's 3D LIDAR building heights power the map, so scores reflect the light the city's geometry actually allows.
Open-Meteo feeds real-time Amsterdam weather, so scores reflect the actual sky — not the calendar.
Bars, restaurants and specialty coffee — curated across every Amsterdam neighbourhood.
Is it a terrace day, when's the sun best, and your top sunny spots right now — at a glance.
No account, no analytics, no ad SDKs. Your data stays on your device. Always.
How it works
Use the preset chips — Now, Afternoon, Evening — or drag the scrubber to any exact hour.
Every terrace gets a 0–100 sun score from the sun's angle over Amsterdam, building shadows and live cloud.
Filter by neighbourhood or vibe, tap a terrace for its hourly timeline, or Chase the Sun across the afternoon.
