SunRise/SunSet Cal (SunCal) App Reviews
Disapointed
Just USA…. It would be much better if there were all the countries of the world. I’m waiting for an update.
NO Canadian options DO NOT BUY
Do not buy this app - no CXanadian options, complete waste of money.
I installed this yesterday. I put in the nearest town, about 8 miles away. Today, I noticed the sunrise time was off by more than 5 minutes. I also checked it for another close town--same thing. Now I have my calendar filled with bogus times, and cant find a way to remove them.
Originally purchased this app a while back … Original release had same problems and here again I see that I must purchase a new version that has not improved. Too bad for all concerned.
The range of times given for both sunrise and sunset is a half hour, making it useless to accurately predict anything. I don’t even think it is adjusted for daylight savings time.
I have an app on my phone that gives me sunrise/sunset times within a minute, but it rounds up or down so some days the number of minutes of daylight stays the same even though I know they are varying. I was looking for something that would be more precise and I thought I had found it with this app. I was sorely disappointed. First, it installs on the calendar by adding the words "sunrise" and "sunset" to every single day of the calendar (I thought it would put in the actual times). You have to click on the word to open up a pop-up window that gives a 30-MINUTE range. I.e., sunrise today will be between 7:30 and 8:00 am? What the heck? Why on earth would anyone find it useful to know that???? Surely you can look out the window and see that it happens sometime between those times? I would love to just uninstall this and get my money back but dont know if theres a way to do that.
Ordinarily I wouldn’t complain about spending 99¢, but this app is currently useless. I live in a small town, 10K people more or less depending on how you count it, and the app can’t find my town on the server. The problem is probably that clicking on the info button takes you to a website that can’t be found by Safari. Going back to the app store and clicking on the developer website or the support website takes you to a financial services website. BTW: just tried to find a “small" town in here in Michigan called Detroit. It also generated an error data can’t be found on service message. Change the first line of this review to “totally useless”. Apple should take this app off the store and return everybody’s money. I will see if that can happen.
