Description
Shows which parts of the world are in daylight, which are in twilight, and which are in darkness. The approximate positions of the sun and moon (projected on to the Earth) are also shown.
Various locations around the world can be selected. Takes into account timezones to show the current time in the selected location and also estimates the sunrise and sunset time. The date, time and speed of the simulation can also be changed.
The app also features an Android widget, which allows you put the map on your home screen. For users of Android 4.0+, the widget is resizeable.
Note: The app now supports being moved to the SD Card. If you move the app to SD card, the widget will not be available. This is a limitation of the Android system. To use the widget, the app MUST be installed on your phone's internal storage.
Now also allows you to explore alternative reality scenarios e.g. a change in the Earth's tilt (see "What If" section of Options menu).
Making requests / reporting problems: Sometimes people give low star ratings because their particular location or timezone is not included in the default list. Please don't use the rating system to "punish", instead just email me!

Worked great until today's update...now, widget doesn't work...blank on screen. Go to the app, and it opens fine...just the widget not working. Y'all might want to roll back the update. UPDATE - Thanks for the widget fix!!!

I just installed this, happy to find a daylight map occupying less than 6mb. So far, very impressed; all software should be this slick.

This is a cool app that lets you see the shadow of the earth on itself in real time - changes minute by minute and season to season, so you can see day time and nighttime all over the world - other cool features the exact position where the sun and moon are directly overhead - lets you adjust day and time to see the map other than a live scenario - flags several world cities with optional crosshairs - really cool app

I love this app... It helps me to show others the seasonal affect of the sun. Paid for ad-free hoping I could change default location, but still opens with Londonistan, Englandistan

Update for 2022: FOR OVER SEVEN YEARS I've had this app, and it's STILL a GREAT APP, so Read on! This is the ONLY Day/Night app to have...the display is CLEAR. I use it for Amateur Radio "Grey Line" propagation in real-time, and forecasting. Truly a Pocket Geochron! So a tip of the Telegrapher's Green Visor to the developer, "73", and All the Best from Radio Station W8LV!

I got the paid version. I do not recommend it. The ads disappear and the display gets skewed filling the space from the ads. The map gets stretched and the sun and moon discs become ovals, and it is most annoying. This app irks me now, and I am extremely disappointed. The free version is 5 stars, but the paid version is definitely not.

Generally good. Re Adelaide: statistics for city wrong but map with correct sunrise and sunset. Upgraded to kill ad-vert-s & get user loc. But time zones missing: no Nfld (GMT-3.5/-2.5) or N.C. Chile (despite Santiago) (GMT-4/-3) among others. Here it is the mid-2022 and none of the bugs I mentioned have been eliminated. When you are in Nfld, the time zone magically appears, otherwise, not available: strange. Apparently, I only got Nfld when I visited. The tablet I left behind doesn't have it

For once there is app content that is ideal for viewing in portrait mode (the day-night line is rather vertical at most inhabited latitudes) and guess what; this app is fixed in landscape mode. And what's wrong with a simple Patterson map projection, instead of this squeezed stuff?
