Ratings and reviews

They put a big red marker over the moon widget unless I give location access, then when I thought "no way I'm doing that" & tried to go back it now is saying "needs internet to grant consent" why on earth does a moon phase app need internet access?? There is zero chance I'm giving an app the network permission because it isn't something that requires a connection of any sort to the internet! Shame, I've been using this app for nearly a decade now for the widget. Maybe I make a FOSS version.

The features are very good. I would love to see the addition of co-longitude and also add the moon age day with hours. How about adding lunar liberation with a graphical component. I know some of that is quite a bit. I still have more to learn about the app. Looking for further updates. Do you have an easy way to capture a moment and share it as an image would be helpful with observing with students I teach.... Thank you for adding the Share feature. I am really liking the app.

I've had the app for some time now and have come to rely on the "rise" and "set" times feature in order to prepare my photography equipment. Unfortunately, that feature has stopped working! Both the rise and set windows have large, red, exclamation Mark's on them. Tried unstalling/reinstalling...still the same!? I cannot find any way to reset this feature. With the rise and set times working, this is a 5 star app! Thanks to the developers for correcting the above mentioned problem!! 5 STARS!!!
