Daylight World Map for Android

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, and the date and time can be changed. For the currently selected location and the current date and time, information such as the number of daylight hours and sunrise/sunset times are shown in an information panel.

The map can also be animated to show the passage of light and shadow across the surface of the Earth over time. The speed can be selected using the "Time Step" control.

The program makes some approximations; do not rely on the results to be totally accurate, they are intended as a guide only.

Time zone for Las Vegas is incorrect
Las Vegas is in the Pacific time zone.  Your app has it in Mountain time.  Please correct this.  Thanks.

Setting location
At the top of the screen, it says Washington DC. I have set a user location of Redmond Oregon. How do I get Redmond to replace the Wash DC at the top of the screen? I am a registered user.
Thanks!

changing location
it doesnt look like I can save the location. The default seems to be London England.

The app remembers the last selected location. If you have had set it "phone location" (i.e. GPS), but GPS has been disabled on your device, then it falls back to selecting London.
