### 4/5 — Great app, not working

*2025-09-21, version 1.2.3*

I’ve had this app for many years and it’s always worked well. I don’t think it’s been updated for a very long time, though. I recently deleted and reinstalled on my iPhone and I can no longer access the settings. When I try, the app shuts down. It’s a shame because this was the best sun & moon app. Another good basic OG app that’s died.

### 1/5 — Total failure

*2024-12-25, version 1.2.3*

This app does not work as it implies. It did not work for me past the date page. His web site is worse. What it does is ropes you in to use calendar app then forces you to use other advertisers to complete the form. The whole website is filled with advertisers. It was hard to know what was real or an advertiser site to help you complete the form.   Hope you don’t step on his surprises.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-07-02, version 1.2.3*

Shows for San Diego but I’m in Oklahoma City, every time I tap location or settings the app shuts down. Would have done better to get one of the free apps because this one is useless to me

### 5/5 — Grateful Website User

*2023-12-04, version 1.2.3*

I’ve been using your website for years and it has been such a profound help in my life. I will gladly support your app! Thank you for your work!

### 5/5 — Great

*2023-09-23, version 1.2.3*

I am using this app on daily basis. There are few things to improve but still I have to rate this app 5 stars

### 2/5 — Doug

*2023-07-17, version 1.2.3*

This app is not working. you try to go to settings and it just throws you back out of the app. I can’t change locations I’m in Trenton New Jersey and it’s showing me San Diego California. I love everything about the app. It’s simple and has just a basic things that I need without you wanna see it’s just not working.

### 5/5 — It’s my go-to!

*2022-07-21, version 1.2.3*

I’m an Outreach Astronomer for a science institute observatory, and a soccer referee; both jobs benefit greatly from this app!

### 1/5 — Rip Off

*2022-04-26, version 1.2.3*

Was to download to iCal. Want my money back.

### 2/5 — App crashes on print

*2021-11-29, version 1.2.3*

I bought this app for the ability to print the calendars but when I attempt to do just that the app immediately crashes.

### 5/5 — Writer’s friend

*2020-07-11, version 1.2.3*

I had to write a scene for a city in the evening and had to determine how dark it was, or in this case, it wasn’t. Had to move the time of events later to match when it would be dark.
