Sunrise

Description

Sunrise shows and optionally reminds you when sunrise, sunset, blue hour (twilight) and golden hour occurs for any location and date (on Earth that is). Calculations are either based on your current location or on a location you select on the built in map. Sunrise will also keep a live tile updated with the time for the next two or three events, i.e. next sunrise at 05:55 and next sunset at 19:48.
