About this app

Home screen widget that display an image of the earth indicating the sun shade on the globe. The app shows data for sunrise and sunset for the current location or any selected location.

When adding a widget, a default view is selected. By checking the option "Follow position", the projection will be selected to follow your current position. The current position is marked with a red dot. A location may be selected by tapping the globe, which then is marked by a violet dot. Tapping outside the globe again selects the current location.

By default, the widget occupies two by two cells on the home screen. Press and hold the widget to enable resizing.

After installation it is possible to add a widget to the home screen (tap and hold).

Ratings and reviews

It's a cool, simple app. I would like to be able to fully spin the globe in all directions, I live far south and can not put my cityright at the centre of the globe. Also, for some reason, I can not place the time bar widget on my phone (Samsung A53, using Nova Launcher). I assume it's a bug.

This app is irritating. It turns how it wants and not how you want it to turn. It's really annoying. The shade is tilted instead of the earth. Half star.

Just what I was looking for. Clean, visually pleasing and uncluttered. Nicely implemented, paid for premium.

What's new

Possibility to save configuration in the app, previously only possible for widget. Minor other improvements.
