Sunrise and sunset are wrong

[surfboomerang]

@Airo The watch does show when the sun rises. It just doesn’t show you when it’s sunny in your location. Only the weather widget forecast comes close to that.

@surfboomerang I understood the point… Here there are big mountains, so we see the sun later than is shown in the widget.

@Airo I have the same issue as you. Sun disappears much earlier than sunset because of our mountains, I don’t know of any app or watch that will tell you sun visibility.

there is a website i discoverd some time ago :
https://shademap.app/

Reading the tone of some people in this thread i refrain myself to share, but, for others i do

@Airo Ah ok, never thought of that one. I live in a region where the nearest mountain is hundreds of kilometers away

@Brad_Olwin I use the app Peak Finder. It shows you exactly where and what time the sun arrives, according to your position . It show you also the name and high of the mountains around you. That is very useful for me.
Maybe one day, the watch, could bring these informations from somewhere ?

@Mff73 cal topo and other mapping platforms can be used for this. Good point.

@Airo
You can ask them to use Suunto API for some suunto+ feature, but I guess it wont be easy to implement, since it would probably need to use preloaded data (if it’s not a real time calculation)

@Airo I use Peak Finder as well but not used that feature. Thanks!
