The Sun section in a city’s Information sheet shows calculated sunrise, sunset, and day length for the selected date. These values use the saved city’s coordinates and time zone.
Steps
- Open a saved city.
- Find the Sun section.
- Read sunrise and sunset as local times for that city.
- Read Day Length as the interval between the calculated sunrise and sunset.
Before you finish

- Select a date and time on World Clock before opening details to explore another moment. Tap Now to return to today.
- The section also shows approximate golden-hour and blue-hour windows, plus solar altitude and azimuth when available. These lighting windows are estimates based on sunrise and sunset.
- At polar latitudes, Polar Day or Polar Night may replace sunrise and sunset times.
- Sky Path shows the sun and moon positions for the selected moment.
- Choose More → Settings → Time Format to use Follow System, 24-Hour Time, or 12-Hour Time. This also changes the format of sunrise and sunset times.
