Review summary

Users praise the app for its clean, fast, and simple interface that quickly shows sunrise and sunset times, with moon rise/set data and a helpful location map. It is free and privacy-friendly. However, several reviews report instability: frequent black screens or data not loading, and some cases of the app failing after iOS updates or requiring an update to function. A key limitation is not being able to view times for other cities or countries. Some users would like a calendar view, but the core timing feature remains appreciated.

Pros

Simple, fast, and intuitive interface that opens quickly and shows the information you need.
Free to use and privacy-friendly.
Accurate, location-based sunrise and sunset times with a helpful map feature.
Moon rise/set times included as an extra feature.
Long-running, trusted tool used by many for years.

Cons

Frequent black screen or data not loading, preventing use.
App stops working after iOS updates or requires an update to function.
Cannot view sunrise and sunset for other cities or countries; location scope is limited.

2026-04-30	Va*****	My favorite and most useful free app, Thank you so much for it. Hopefully it will always be there because Apple doesn’t like free apps because they don’t make any commissions out of it.

2026-03-08	^^*****	Beautiful and clean. Free and doesn’t invade your privacy. Unfortunately I couldn’t figure out how to set up alarms for a remote location (not where I currently am/the phone currently is). So I couldn’t use this app.

2026-03-05	KT*****	I, for one thinks this is a great app. I don’t need to know when sunrise or set is anywhere else. For me, it works great

2026-02-22	Gd*****	This app is what a good app should be. Open it and there is the information you want to see! It can’t get simpler. I configured it once to go directly to my current location at the current date using cellular data. If you want a different date, roll to that date. If you want a different location, drag the pin. I just read if you want the moon just shake the phone. I have not tested that. Maybe it has other features. I most often want to know the sunset to know how much time I have left to be where I want to be at that time. I love this app and recommend it if you want speed and simplicity.
