Polished and well-supported app, incredibly responsive developer

Due to days of rain/clouds in my location, I haven’t yet been able to test the accuracy of the forecasts, but in anticipation of eventually seeing the sun again, I’ve poked around in the app and really love how it’s laid out. Intuitive and easy to use, with some really excellent features. I love the 4-day forecast option, as well as the notification options. I really like seeing all the times laid out for first and last light, golden hour and blue hour, and of course, sunrise and sunset. It’s a really good-looking app with more functionality than you’re going to find on, say, sunsetwx.com, which is what I’ve used for years. Communication with the developer is super-easy with multiple email links to provide feedback, and I had an opportunity to use this when I couldn’t get “Restore Purchase” to work and enable me to use the app on all my devices. I emailed my feedback and had a friendly, personalized response within hours saying he’d reported the bug and offering a workaround, and asking me to let him know if the workaround didn’t fix my issue (it did). If you have an Apple Watch, the Watch app is just the thing, with really intuitive displays and functionality, by the way. I think I may love the Watch app even more than I do the phone/iPad app. I recognize that no sunset/sunrise prediction can be 100% accurate every time, any more than a weather forecast will be. Those of us chasing light should know the factors that create a great sunrise or sunset and consider this app, or sunsetwx, or any other prediction app to be a “rule of thumb” kind of general guide. This one is polished and offers exceptional functionality across multiple devices, and you can’t beat the responsiveness of the developer! I find the $24.95 lifetime cost of this app (the most economical way to support this developer) to be entirely worth it.

Totally inaccurate

It said 97 percent sunset so me and my friend stopped what we were doing and rushed to get ready for it to only be clouds. This has happened many times so please don’t trust this app it will be either a letdown or you will miss a good sunrise/sunset!!

A functional & beautiful app

I really appreciate apps like this, that do one thing well and in a beautiful way. This app is a great way to stay on top of sunset and try to not miss the most beautiful ones. Thanks to the developer for being so responsive and making such a lovely app.

Stopped working entirely

App fully stopped working (error: location not retrieved) even though the app has full permissions. Have tried restarting etc.

Really takes advantage of visionOS

I was surprised how well this works on Apple Vision Pro, I would think something that deals with taking pictures and knowing about the sunset wouldn’t be a fit here. But it’s actually really well done.
