Fixed display issue with newer iPhones.

User reviews

Nice but please improve it.

I like this application. I’m using it on daily basis. I think, it would be even better if 24 hrs clock would have some digits, eg. Straight up (12:00), straight down (24:00), straight left (6:00) and right (18:00), or something like that. It would be much easier to determine the time, which the clock hand shows.

Simple and reliable

I’ve been using this app without issue since the iPhone 4S days, and continue to use it to this day. It has not changed, it has never had a single glitch or issue and it has been absolutely reliable for well over 10 years of continued use. Kudos to the dev for not “fixing” something that isn’t broken.

Simple & Elegant

How Apps should be, simple, elegant, no fuss or noise. Beautifully executed it is 15 years old now and still works, thank you so much.

Sometimes the oldest apps are the best

I’ve had this app for over 14 years. It just works. It’s simple. No useless AI. It delivers. It shows you civil, nautical, and astronomical times.

M. Casgrain, merci beaucoup pour une application très formidable.

Great App

As a river user, canoe and kayak, I use this app to know they daylight times throughout the year. I have been using it for over 5 years and it is very reliable.
