About Sunset and Sunrise Times
Live by the Sun! See not only the Sunrise and Sunset times but also the First and Last Light times for exactly where YOU are right now – not the "closest" city. See exactly how much daylight is left in the day - in a large, simple, easy to read display - so you can plan ahead to the last speck of daylight. Both iPhone and iPad support is included in the price. This IS the app you are looking for!
It shows:
• Sunrise time
• Sunset time
• First Light time (Dawn)
• Last Light time (Twilight end)
• Amount of daylight in the day
• Counts down the amount of daylight left in the day until last light
• At night, counts down the time left until the first light of the new day
• Counts down days, hours and minutes left until the shortest and longest days
• Dates of the equinox and solstice
• See the Sunrise, Sunset, First and Last light times for any day in the future.
• Correctly handles Daylight Savings time.
• Access to your location by the app is completely optional.
• Resizable text using iOS's Large text accessibility feature.
*** What our reviewers said:
"I use it least 3 or 4 times a week and it's nice and accurate. Invaluable for any time-pressed gardener!"
"Handy tool for planning when to fish."
"...Now I can time my walks to finish the walk well before sundown... Highly recommend "
"Simple but effective app. As a photographer I use it all the time."

An indispensable tool for those who don't want to waste a moment of the day - or the night!

• Fully supported on iOS7 and iOS8.
• My most popular request - Access to your device's location is now entirely optional. If you don't want to give the app access to your location, then simply disable location access and manually choose your location on the map. The location you choose will be saved and will be reused the next time you start the app. We still recommend that you allow location access though - this means the app will be more accurate and automatically adjust the sunrise and sunset times depending on where you are.
• Implement iOS8 location security.
• Improved contrast between the background and text making the app easier to read.
• Greater accuracy at extreme latitudes.
• Support for iOS larger text sizes.
• Fit and finish UI improvements - we've cleaned up and modernised some rough edges we spotted on the user interface.
• Other minor bug fixes.
This is the first app I wrote some years ago and I'm really happy to have modernised it for newer devices. The app behind the scenes has been completely rewritten, although I've worked hard to keep the same user interface that is well loved while introducing new features that you've asked for.
Thank you again for your support and constructive feedback. If you have any suggestions please do email us from the support page, and if you love the app please do leave a great review in the app store. Enjoy!
