### 2/5 — Circadian Is NOT the APP It Used To Be…

*2026-08-11, version 4.0.8*

After using Circadian for several years I can say my satisfaction has dropped completely. It used to work, now it fails on every use. Having to reset the choices after EVERY TIME it is setup! And the “alarms” fail the same way, EVERY TIME!  All the “updates” have destroyed a perfectly good working app. I no longer recommend Circadian for use or purchase.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t update times automatically anymore…

*2026-08-03*

I used to love this app but not really sure what the point is to have an app (that I pay a subscription fee for) to notify me at different times of the day… when I have to go in every day to turn off location services and turn them back on for it to update to the correct times. I may as well just google the info every day. This hasn’t worked properly for a very long time. Contacted the developers early this year and they told me a fix would be in place sometime in March. It is now August and still doesn’t work. I have done every app update. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it. Multiple times. Not renewing my subscription. What a waste of money this year.

### 3/5 — updates??

*2026-04-09, version 4.0.6*

this app would be amazing if I didn’t have to constantly change the location back and forth to where I live so the times are correct, it doesn’t update on its own otherwise and keeps telling me the wrong times which is honestly frustrating

### 2/5 — Times aren’t correct

*2026-03-11, version 4.0.6*

I rely on this app but recently the times have been way off. I’m getting alerts for things like sunrise and sunset - but not at the actual times of those. Maybe it’s a bug or glitch??

### 2/5 — Accuracy Declining

*2026-03-02, version 4.0.6*

I used to love this app but now the times are off for sunrise which makes me think I can’t trust any of the other times and makes the whole app useless. Not sure if this is a bug or if the app no longer has support. Would love to see a fix.

### 4/5 — Sunrise & Sunset Times Off by 25 Minutes

*2026-02-27, version 4.0.6*

The app is great overall, but the times for sunrise and sunset aren’t changing each day and are off now at my location by 26 and 24 minutes, respectively. That is a significant difference, and it needs to be fixed.

### 2/5 — Notifications?

*2026-01-08, version 4.0.5*

All of a sudden the notifications don’t work. I’ve done everything I can think of to get them working again, but none of it has worked.

### 2/5 — Not getting notifications

*2026-01-07, version 4.0.5*

Idk why but all of a sudden this app won’t send me notifications anymore. I tried to keep the app open to see if that was the problem and it’s still having the same issue.

### 2/5 — App increíble

*2025-12-06, version 4.0.1*

App increíble… sonidos de notificaciones insoportables y no configurables para cambiar, en una app pensada para regular tu sistema nervioso. Eso es un chiste.

### 5/5 — My day…

*2025-11-29, version 4.0*

In my estimation, 5 stars is not enough praise for this app. This app keeps me in tune with the solar day even when  I am confined inside. My day is measured by my circadian rhythm. I am reminded to step outside for various levels and action of sunlight which improves my well being for sure. I appreciate it daily.

### 4/5 — The

*2025-10-12, version 3.1.0*

Hi guys.
 Just like

### 5/5 — Incredible app

*2025-10-06, version 3.1.0*

Simple, beautiful, informative. Has really supported me in addressing chronic health issues.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-10-06, version 3.1.0*

I appreciate this app much

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-09-01, version 3.1.0*

I’ve been seeing sunrise and early UVA since starting to use this app. It also reminds and encourages me to limit light after nightfall. I love the support and the connection with the rhythm of the natural
world.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very inaccurate

*2026-04-02, version 4.0.6*

Currently the app shows the sunrise at 06:11 in Brighton , UK , however all other apps indicate the sunrise at 06:32.  And many other inconsistencies.

### 1/5 — Times not accurate

*2026-04-01, version 4.0.6*

I don’t look at Circadian every day, but today I noticed it has the wrong times for sunrise and sunset.  Example: app says sunset is 7:24, while real sunset time is 7:50.

 I double checked the city it is set at and the date and time of day and those are all accurate.

What happened???
If it doesn’t know the correct sunrise and sunset times, how can any of the other times be accurate?

### 1/5 — No choices on notifications

*2026-01-20, version 4.0.5*

This app used to allow a choice of which 3 notifications a day you are allowed. Now the free choices gives you times that make no sense like when to exercise. You cannot get a notification when it’s sunrise or sunset on the free version. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Sunrise / Sunset times inaccurate

*2026-01-02, version 4.0.4*

The sunrise and sunset times have been stuck on the same time for about two weeks. I’ve had this app for over a year and this happens constantly. Please fix it already…

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2025-11-15, version 3.1.0*

I just downloaded this app about 30 minutes ago, loved it so much that I considered purchasing a lifetime subscription, but then the app started crashing and force closing over and over again. I barely got to try it out, and it won’t stop crashing. I will not be purchasing.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2025-08-31, version 3.1.0*

WONT UPDATE TIMEZONE OR LOCATION

### 1/5 — Could not manually enter a location

*2025-06-13, version 3.1.0*

Tried repeatedly to enter location. Do mot o
Want to use the auto location

### 1/5 — Unable to use - location bug

*2024-10-15, version 3.1.0*

Couldn’t get the app to start, so no experience of functionality. Major bug when determining location meant that whilst my location was found, the onboarding experience of the app could not progress. Please fix

### 1/5 — No pasa de la ubicación

*2024-08-23, version 3.1.0*

Hola, la he instalado y cuando llego a la ubicación no me deja continuar.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work that well

*2024-08-20, version 3.1.0*

My alarm goes off after sunset

### 5/5 — Best circadian app!

*2026-05-13, version 4.0.7*

I absolutely love this app! It has completely changed my awareness of light and optimizing my time outdoors for the best benefits. I love the reminders and how they adjust to the correct time when I travel. Plus, it’s easy to use and they have excellent customer service whenever I’ve had a question. Highly recommend this one!!

### 5/5 — Love this

*2026-03-25, version 4.0.6*

Love this app and cannot explain it enough! Knowing the times of everything makes holding my rhythm so easy. Use this everyday!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-03-19, version 4.0.6*

Great customer service! I have sent getting notifications when I first got the app so wrote an email. Got a very speedy response with the exact info to change my settings so I would. 
Being able to have reminders to get out at sunrise, get more light and to optimize sunlight and re establish a healthier circadian rhythm is changing my health and mood. Very much appreciate all the information available as well. Thanks! Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — So Helpful

*2026-03-10, version 4.0.6*

I love this app. It’s so easy to use. My favourite thing is I can set notifications for times like sunrise or uva rise so I remember to go outside to get light in my eyes.

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS APP

*2026-03-08, version 4.0.6*

Such a helpful, easy to use app. As someone trying to be mindful of my circadian rhythm who tries to get natural light exposure at the best times of day, I just love it. All the lighting info for any given day that I need in one place, even laid out in a helpful visual format. Seriously thank you for this app!!  🙌🏼

### 5/5 — Live by the sun cycle

*2026-03-02*

This app is so helpful - not just for tracking the light/dark cycles and sunset/sunrise—but it also explains WHY it’s important to live by our circadian rhythms in simple terms. This app offers notifications that are super customisable—and a beautiful + intuitive visualisation of the precise rhythm of your day, exactly tailored for where you live. It’s also excellent for those who want to catch as many “golden hour” sunrises/sunsets as possible. The yearly subscription is (actually!) quite reasonable, and it’s such a reliable + useful app, I’ve renewed for 4 years in a row.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this beautiful review! 🌞 We’re really glad Circadian is helping you not only track sunrise/sunset and light/dark cycles, but also understand why living by your circadian rhythm matters.

It’s awesome to hear you’re enjoying the customizable notifications and the day visualisation tailored to your location. And wow… renewing for 4 years in a row means a lot to us 🙏 Thanks for all your support!

Mind your rhythm, mind your light ☀️

### 5/5 — You want this App!
