Two days out

Its wrong by a few days?

Sorry to give it only one star, but it’s wrong

Sad, but true, the app is telling me the moon will be full on Monday, September 12, 2022 when it’s actually 100% full tonight, Saturday, September 10, 2022. Kind of defeats the purpose…

I like it

It shows moon rise and moon set, sun rise and sun set, easy to change to the next day, between the two apps I have installed, this one is my favourite and to go to app to check the moon rise time when I want to go and watch it.

App has wrong moon times 😳

I’ve had this app for years, and have just realised tonight, on the night of the harvest moon, that this app is giving the wrong times for the moon. It’s telling me that the full moon isn’t for another 2 days, when it’s actually tonight. So basically this app has failed to deliver on its whole purpose.

Okay but it has issues.

This app is okay, but it has issues. For instance, every month when the Moon is at 1st quartet, the rise and set times are not displayed.
