Inconsistent moon time and sun times changing in the middle of day

I’ve noticed that on the current day, the app only tells you the time when the moon has already risen & set yesterday and doesn’t really predict when it will rise/set today. And I’ve also noticed that in the middle of the day, when I revisit the app after checking the sun times, they would be different later on in the day, and sometimes change in the middle of the day, instead of changing exactly at the beginning of every day, and staying consistent.

Completely inaccurate

I had the previous version of this app on my iPod & iPad and it gave very accurate times. I verified this many times. I installed the new version on my phone, and it is completely inaccurate. Comparing the old & new versions side by side shows the new version times (for today, Jan 3/25, in Grande Prairie AB) are 8 minutes early for sunrise & 3 minutes late for sunset! I don’t know why they should be different except for poor design. This is next to useless. I am certainly NOT going to update my older versions. I’m glad I didn’t update already, because you can’t get the old one back. I will be looking for a different app for my phone.

Doesn’t even tell you the moonrise time for the current day. It tells you what it was yesterday. Irrelevant.
