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 a information panel.

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

Force close errors? The most common cause of the app crashing is the phone running out of memory, especially when zooming in. Some developments are planned to use memory more efficiently to help avoid this problem. In the meantime, if your phone has limited memory, try closing other apps, or is possible avoid zooming in too much!

Hammerfest Norway
Will you please add Hammerfest, Norway to the cities on Daylight World Map?
Thank You

Thanks for the suggestion. Even though I am sure Hammerfest is a wonderful place, in general I tend to only add cities that are quite large or have some other significance, e.g a capital.  I grant you it's in an interesting place though. I presume you must be one of Hammerfest's 10,287 inhabitants :)

Hi. Just one question. How can I arch the night zone to cover more realistically around the globe instead of a dull semi-square feature. But other than that, very nice for Nexus 7 Android Tablet. Thank you.

Hi Jimmy,
The day and night zones are already represented realistically, the shape depends on the time of year.

Question
I just downloaded this app and it is great. Wondering if there is any way to add time zones to map display? Thanks!

There is no way to do this currently. The easiest solution would be to have a base map which shows timezones. I'll keep an eye out.

Mr
How do I put the world sun map on my android tablets home screen

posted 2013-11-05 by David Haas

It should be listed along with all your other home screen widgets. If it's not there, make sure you haven't enabled "move to SD card". Home screen widgets won't work from the SD card.

upgrade
Where can I get the pro version?

Hi Dennis,

If you downloaded it from Google Play or from Amazon Appstore, you can upgrade to the Pro version from within the app.

Should be available via the "i" button.
