My mileage varies too. I suppose it depends on what city/country you have entered in the search.

@jkanarek Perhaps you could share what your search input is, so that someone can cross check?

Currently it only triggers for capital cities. We're going to increase the triggering internally.

@moollaza, why was this listed as tolerated? I just switched to using DuckDuckGo and love the sunset-sunrise functionality of google. The capital cities limitation is quite a large one.

@iambibhas, has there been any thought about changing the functionality to try to the grab lat/long from an api for the location entered and then using a method similar to the SunInfo Goodie?

Hmm yeah not even working for big cities. On Wed, Jul 5, 2017 at 4:44 AM Gusgus01 notifications@github.com wrote:

I would love to work making this better. I regularly need to add the city to my search in order to provide my actual city.

Is there a preferred method of making this more compatible?
