Always crashes

Seems like it could be a helpful app, but doesn’t appear to ever receive updates. Frequently crashes which for a paid app is frustrating

Does not work

I have this app on 2 up-to-date devices & 1 older one with previous IOS. It does NOT WORK properly on any of them. Cancelled my subscription today as I am not getting what I pay for. I was complaining to a younger family member about my app that doesn’t work & she immediately asked if it was sky candy!! She’s a samsung user & said it’s well known amongst her social set of all different types of phones etc that sky candy is no good. This app has so much potential it’s a shame that the developer can’t fix the multitude of problems. Even the contact/help is greyed out & doesn’t work! My advice to anyone thinking of taking out a subscription……DON’T. You’ll just be disappointed - as I was.

Love it when it works

Any news on if we’re getting closer to a resolution? Love using this app but the only way I can use it now is uninstall and install it just to use it once before it crashes 😟

Don’t waste your money

App continuously shuts down, email to support ignored. It’s terribly inaccurate, 3 sunsets this last week were absolute stunners and it predicted them at around the 20% mark, same with 2 sunrises. Just use their free app, don’t waste your money on the paid app, so not worth it. I’m cancelling my sub so I don’t get charged when it comes up for renewal.

App no longer works on IOS 15.1

Such a great app have been using it for a long time. Unfortunately it no longer works on my iphone. If I delete and reinstall it’ll work once but then freezes and stops functioning until I delete it again and reinstall again.

Not working having just paid for it

Having just paid for an annual subscription for this, it is is disappointing to find that it is not working, despite several deletions and Re installations

Still not working on IOS

Unable to open app. Deleted and re-downloaded. Worked briefly, unable to restore premium account and now not opening again.

Still not working after update?

iPhone 13 pro max iOS 15.2 - sadly it is still not loading past the first logo screen. Can see the change log message but it stops there.

Still doesn’t work!

I’m on IOS 15.1.1 and just did your update but it still doesn’t work. Very disappointing.

After iPhone update

… doesn’t work. Comes up with orange screen and that’s it.
