Once worked perfectly... not any more: broken app
In ios8, the app cannot read the iPhone time. Always position itself on the sunrise time. So in the evening you cannot navigate through the night because the app think you are in daytime. For the same reason you cannot get the current coordinates by shaking the iPhone because the app always position itself at sunrise time. Too bad because it was the better app of its kind a few years ago. Now there are better apps and this one doesn't even work anymore.

Essential
Great app that gives me sun/moon rise/set info I need wherever I am, even in locations without cell or wifi connectivity. I've relied on this app for many years to plan virtually all of my photography shoots.
Doesn't work.....:(
Sorry, but can't find ANY location on my iPhone 6 with latest system upgrade. Really disappointed. Hopefully they can get this corrected.
Can't find my location, so semi-worthless
I was excited to see this app, but it cannot find my location. I don't want to constantly have to type in my gps coordinates manually to get this to work. Very disappointing.
Ok. But
Appears to work well, but why does it need to know my location when I am not using it?
Beautiful, incredible, worth every penny!
You can tell an artistic person designed the GUi for this app because it's just absolutely beautiful.
Reminds me of some of the cutting edge App design during the renaissance of the Macintosh desktop publishing era prior to OSX. It Seems like Most current day GUI design in iOS looks like something out of a Fisher-Price design studio, But not this app!
At only 4.5 MB,the coding for this app also is incredible; heck, you'll even be able to fit this baby on a 16 MB iPhone!!
Great job!
Keep up the good work! Your creativity glorifies the designer/coder,The Branch of Jesse, of your DNA, big time!🏁🌌🎆🌅

Compass does not point north
- nice interface, but the compass does not point north (just up)
Used for years
I have used this app for many years and it works very well for the information about where the sun and moon will be for photography just about anywhere in the world. You don't need to be on line so that's great for remote locations. Has just about all the major cities preloaded and is easy to add new cities or locations by using you phone service to locate you. Or by you adding the Lat and Lon and creating a custom name and location.

Updated design?
:-/
It is just letterboxed differently now. It looks VERY MUCH like an iOS 6 or previous app. Plus it has me as in New York, and it’s not easy to find how to have it choose where I am.
I’m unsure why this was JUST updated to something that runs on iOS 5 and later. 6 could easily be the minimum bar in this day and age.

Good tool for photographers and astronomers
This works really well, and allows sun and moon predictions with ease. Two suggestions for improvement though:
1. It would be nice to see the sun and moon together in a different mode, to gauge how close they are in the sky.
2. I'd also like to be able to see the sun and moon together on the screen when they are below the horizon. Basically I want the thing to work more like a full orrery :)
This app is nicely complemented by Sun Seeker, which shows a map view with sun beam direction overlaid. I recommend getting both of them.
