User Reviews

Users praise Sunrise, Sunset for accurate times on iPhone and Watch, moon data, and clear rise/set visuals with an easy interface. Recurrent issues include watch-related location/time inaccuracies, DST offset timing, intrusive ads, and a misleading claim about Watch complications. Some UI problems on iPad (large fonts) also appear. Overall solid for quick sun/moon info, but watch data reliability and ad experience detract from the best use.
Pros
  • Accurate sunrise and sunset times on iPhone and Apple Watch.
  • Moon information is included in the app.
  • Clear sun/moon direction visuals at rise and set.
  • Simple, easy-to-use interface.
  • Helpful for planning sunsets or sunset photography (shows exactly where the sun will set).
Cons
  • Watch location/time zone data is inaccurate and does not update properly.
  • Times are off during daylight saving time or due to time zone offsets.
  • Ads are intrusive with no option to remove ads.
  • Watch complications are not actually supported as described in the app listing.
  • iPad UI has font size/display issues with no available font-size setting.
