PhotoSignal Help

Guides for setting up locations, creating alerts, using templates, understanding notifications, and getting more from PhotoSignal.

Getting started

Add your first location, create your first alert, and understand the basic PhotoSignal workflow.

Learn how alert conditions, timing windows, templates, and notifications work together.

Learn what upcoming, imminent, and cancellation notifications mean.

Build a fog alert using the Fog possible Smart Check, a useful timing window, and optional local limits.

Build a colour-potential alert using cloud layers, sunrise or sunset timing, and optional horizon context.

Use the Sun-facing Horizon Open Smart Check as sunrise and sunset context without making colour alerts too strict.

Build a moonrise or moonset alert using near-full illumination, the moonrise/moonset Smart Check, and sunrise or sunset timing.
