United StatesLSTclock is an iOS/iPadOS/watchOS app to display the local sidereal time (LST) at the selected location(s). On iOS/iPadOS, it can also calculate the LST and the Julian Date for arbitrary date/time. The app contents (location list) can be synced between iPhone and paired Apple Watch(es).
Extreme minimalism
The app works but I can’t seem to get the Lock Screen widget to show the LST. It shows a time when selecting the widget as a preview, but not on the active Lock Screen widget itself. I’ve tried all the privacy/notification settings I could find, updated iOS and reinstalled. The app doesn’t show up in some lists where other app settings would appear.
United States“Local” sidereal time
In relationship to my actual location, it’s not showing me accurate side real time. It’s showing me side real time for Switzerland, but I’m not in Switzerland. I have my location on, but it’s not telling me what my local sidereal time is
United StatesSmall bugs but unique in function
There seems to be a bug in how the Watch app enumerates complications, and took a few restarts and resets before I could get everything just right, but this app is unique in that you can get sidereal time with just your longitude and display it on the watch face.
United StatesGreat sidereal time app
This is perfectly done, simple UI and is overall nearly exactly what I was looking for. My only request would be to have watch complications show the LST in clock format, not decimal (e.g. 17:37, not 17.6), if possible. Even just showing minutes would be fine.

No Night mode, I.e dim red light
United StatesEssential
Essential app for amateur astronomers. It is simple and to the point. Thank you so much.
