Hi menion,

I learned that you do not want the app to do to much things automatically  ;) , but what about switching to night mode automatically?
I tested the navigation feature on some longer car rides - cool feature, works perfectly! But I can't switch to night mode while driving, an automatic switch would be fine here.

There are lot's of sources in the web dealing with computing sunrise/sunset times, maybe this one could be used online:

They offer a web service which returns an xml with some useful inormation:

Regards,
