My Sunset

When I first came across this app, I looked at it as a backup or confirmation to TPE and considered it to be more as a curiosity than a serious app. When TPE began to give me spotty results this year I decided to give MySunset a second look. All I can say I I wish I had done so much earlier. I live in the DC area and it’s batted 1.000 for me this year. It’s been so good, I’ve traveled as far as Gettysburg or Fredericksburg (70 or so miles) based on its predictions (80% or higher) and I’m 1000% satisfied with the results. It has been simply outstanding! The map is buggy and inconsistent and the colors change when you zoom in and out. (I have no idea…) Yes, highly irritating but I’ve learned to ignore it completely when I realized how good the tabulated data are. If you’re into sunrises and sunsets I can’t recommend this app enough. Wish I could post photos. Give it a try!

For every day use it’s been really accurate. The map/predictions change frequently so I always double check if I am really looking to get some color. All in all I’m really grateful for this tool!

I like the concept of this app - it saves me from having to check the SunsetWx website every day. However, map navigation is laggy, it will only zoom out to a certain point (can't see my entire state, let alone a whole region), and for some reason I keep getting prompted for my iTunes password when using this app (I am logged into iTunes and no other app does this). I did pay for both in-app upgrades before testing the app (my fault), but I expect more from such a relatively expensive app. A nice feature addition would be a customizable range for the notifications. For example, if I don't mind a short drive, it would be nice to know that there's a much better sunset 30 miles away.
