Doesn’t work. Either fix it or refund me! ### 5/5 — Nice app *2022-05-03, version 2.32* Perfect for time keeping & sabbath. There anyway option for changing a new day start setting to Dawn instead of midnight?? That’ll be nice! ### 5/5 — Location? *2022-03-14, version 2.32* I enabled use my location and the location chosen is about 10 miles from me. I am wondering if the reason is as another reviewer stated? I appreciate the inclusion of Islamic and Jewish time markers, important for the prayer obligations of both groups. ### 4/5 — The App is aweaone but I wish it had a widget! *2021-12-03, version 2.32* The App is aweaone but I wish it had a widget! ### 1/5 — Crashes... not Hindu friendly *2021-02-28, version 2.32* The app is not Hindu friendly and assumes only Other religions pray at sunrise. The app crashes when you try to add a song as the alarm. ### 5/5 — Can we make this as screen lock or atleast a widget *2020-10-07, version 2.32* Widget please ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-10-01, version 2.32* Poor ### 4/5 — So close to 5 stars *2020-09-21, version 2.32* This would be my fave app ever, if only one thing...more sound alarm options. The one and only alarm sound ( unless you link to a playlist) is nowhere near loud or long enough to get my attention. It seems that would be easy update, if it happens 5 stars all the way!!!! ### 1/5 — Spazzing app *2020-04-30, version 2.11* Scrolls through all future dates. Can’t see anything because it starts with today and freaks out through — well I’ve seen as far as mid 2021 before I gave up on it. Pity. Wanted sunrise/set alarms. ## Frequently asked questions about DayTime ### What does the DayTime app do?
