Version History Solstice 3.2 is now available in Arabic, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish. The charts have a new sky. Its colours are derived from the sun's altitude and the way the atmosphere scatters light, rather than from a fixed set of gradients, so sunrise, sunset, and twilight are closer to the sky outside. Time Travel has a redesigned control bar on macOS and visionOS. The globe in "About solstices and equinoxes" is now a true 3D model on iPhone, iPad, and Mac as well as Vision Pro. This update also fixes default locations reappearing after you delete them, location permission on macOS, and solar event dates for regions that use a non-Gregorian calendar. 3.2 Aug 9 Solstice 3.1.1 updates the classic chart for a more accurate depiction of the sun’s path throughout the year by charting the sun’s altitude instead of its position relative to sunrise/sunset. 3.1.1 Mar 6 Widgets and Apple Watch complications have been completely re-written in Solstice 3.1 to improve reliability and performance.

Solstice version 1.4.3
Updated At: 2022-01-09
Changes: Jan 9, 2022 Version 1.4.3
Version 1.4.3 of Solstice fixes a bug which prevented the Countdown widget from updating at appropriate times.
Despite its familiar appearance, version 1.4 of Solstice is chock-full of improvements and new features.
**Onboarding and Location**
- The onboarding screen has been redesigned to allow new users to choose to use the app without turning on location access
- Additionally, you can now use the app after revoking location access. It will continue to use your last cached location, or you can enter a location manually. Note that on watchOS, location access is always required.
**Notifications**
- You can now schedule notifications at a time relative to sunrise/sunset. For example, “15 minutes before sunrise”.
**Widgets**
- The countdown widget has a new design that cycles between different sky colours throughout the day.
- Widgets have been updated to handle large dynamic type sizes
**Bug Fixes**
- The app has previously marked the June and December solstices by their dates alone, rather than their exact times. This has been fixed in this version, counting down to the exact time of the next/previous solstice.
- The Apple Watch complications did not reliably update to show the most recent data. This has been fixed.
- General performance and reliability improvements.
