It would be nice to have the shadow length added as a notification or alarm when it is, for example, equal to the height of the object. Otherwise, thanks for the excellent work. I'm enjoying this app.

I think more interesting would be a display of the sun's elevation.

I agree: Shadow length depends on the surface, too. Also shadow length will be a proportion anyway, so if you have the elevation in degrees (°), isn't the shadow length L = object height divided by tangens of the elevation? (For the object being right up and the shadow surface being perpendicular to the object casting the shadow)
