We have friends whose religious beliefs prohibit activity outside of the home after sunset on certain days. This app helps us maintain an awareness of the time they have available for socializing without inadvertently imposing on their beliefs.
Data incorrect

I wanted to love this app. I love it's elegant simplicity . I also really like that it shows dusk too- most apps like this don't. It didn't try to be a Swiss Army knife - focus on one thing…BUT that said it has to do that one thing perfectly. I recently discovered it was off by about 25 mins for my location! That's pretty significant since I use it for bike rides. I hoping for a fix but until then it's of no use. I wrote developer on this as well.
Won't work

Does not work

Just shows a message that says could not load information. Should be removed from the repository so it doesn't waste peoples time. It also asks for location information all the time not just when it's running with no explanation.
DEADWARE! Delete from App Store!

This nonfunctional app hasn't been updated in two years. In just the last month alone, I probably downloaded at least half a dozen apps for my brand-new iPhone 6S Plus that turned out, upon installation, to either not load, or not function. Apple should remove records in the App Store database 90 days after the first reviewer notices that any app no longer works. A "Report as Not Functioning" checkbox in the App Store Reviews section might help expedite this process. Otherwise, nonworking apps continue to waste time for Apple's customers around the world. If the developer doesn't respond after six months, Apple should then release the source code as public domain so that others can take the simple steps required to fix outdated but nevertheless useful applications. If I turn out to be wrong about this particular app, I will revise my review. Nevertheless, as an Apple Developer Connection member myself since 2001, I don't have much patience left for other developers who fail to update their apps, or even their App Store database records.
