Comments:
This is an excellent app. Highly useful.
Very useful in keeping oneself away of the risings and settings of the planets and especially the moon and sun.
And the time zone didn't change. The sun does not rise at 1pm.
Wish the map view showed the time as well, great app
Just plain information usable for moon photos etc, no fancy views, no astrological bullshit.'
