Eclipse Soundscapes still works.  We're in the path tomorrow and when I 
opened the app just now there's a running countdown, as well as a map 
that gives haptic feedback.  I remember using it back when we had a 
total eclipse in 2017.

Totality by Big Kid Science 

Your Solar Eclipse Companion 







A total solar eclipse is among the most awe-inspiring events in 
nature, but few people have had the opportunity to experience one. 
Totality by Big Kid Science, a FREE educational app now owned by the 
nonprofit American Astronomical Society, aims to help change that by 
helping you learn about eclipses and find your way to upcoming 
eclipses around the world, including the 2023 annular and 2024 total 
eclipses that will pass across North America. Totality, your 
solar-eclipse companion, is sponsored by the nonprofit American 
Astronomical Society. Its awesome features include: • An interactive 
map that shows exactly what you’ll see at any location in the world 
for upcoming annular and total solar eclipses, as well as a review of 
recent past eclipses. (Maps based on eclipse code graciously provided 
by Xavier Jubier.) • Using your phone's GPS, the app will tell you 
what you'll see for these eclipses at your current location, as well 
as showing you the nearest locations where you can witness annularity 
or totality. • The app offers navigation tools to help you find your 
best route to the path of totality. • The Learn screen offers options 
that will help you learn how to view a solar eclipse safely, help you 
understand the science behind eclipses, and much more. It even 
includes a set of classroom activities. • The Shop screen offers 
fantastic books about space and science (including a children’s book 
designed to accompany the app), eclipse glasses for safe viewing 
(which you can use to look at the Sun at any time, not just during an 
eclipse), and links to some of our favorite space education 
nonprofits. And it's all absolutely free, including no ads, brought 
to you as a public service by Big Kid Science and the American 
Astronomical Society. Totality by Big Kid Science is now available in 
English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese (determined by the language 
setting on your device). Privacy Policy:

I remember there used to be an app where a blind person could get something out 
of something like tomorrow's solar eclipse. Does anyone remember what that app
