this app has always been super simple and useful for me, but the new maps feature has added so much. I’ve been using it when searching for a new house to figure out where the sun will be during the day. As an avid gardener, this is super useful and exciting when looking at potential houses.. not to mention the reasonable one time purchase prices 🙌🏼

In app purchase price is one of the most reasonable of the sunrise/sunset apps that I looked at. And I'm happy that the app has widgets!I have a few wish list items to make it 5 star. (1) Being able to set a preference for which view the app starts at. Some people might want the calendar table at startup, but I'd prefer to start with the Today view. (2) I use my tablet in portrait mode, so every time I start the app, I have to tap to get rid of the location pane, as it blocks the data pane. A minor annoyance, I know. As it is, I don't toggle locations, so it'd be fine if the location choices were in the settings menu.

The free version only allows for notifications at solar noon, which is not what I wanted. Apple charged me a bit more than $5 just once and now it gives me alarms at sunrise and sunset, which is exactly what I wanted. You can set it to any alarm sound you want, which is nice.

My favorite part about this app is it is very simple and exactly what I need! I like to check the sunrise the night before so I can plan my morning walk before I start my day. There aren’t any ads which I find it hard to come across in an app.
