I'm in the US Eastern TZ (GMT -5) and while it is able to use the GPS to locate me and show me local data, it appears to assume that my clock is still set to GMT, so it does an unnecessary timezone adjustment. i.e. here it is 11:30 a.m. but the app tells me that it's 6:30 and that sunrise is in another 55 minutes from now. Which would be very handy if I were in the UK & planning to travel to the US east coast. Less handy since I'm here already.<br><br>Perhaps there is a toggle where one can tell it one's "home zone" and then view time-adjusted data for the rest of the world, but I couldn't find anywhere in the UI to do any sort of persistent settings such as that.
