Hi There's some inconsistencies between different calendars available for use, I am yet to find one that consistently provides the correct results

for now please change the calendar type in display settings to Islamic (civil), it should fix your issue for now (at the end of Ramadan, you may need to change it back again)

App uses pre-calculated calendars, and so is not aware of moon sighting of the real world. and it does not use any website to find out so, as a user, you can't rely on the app's calendar to know when Ramadan starts or ends exactly (for Eid Al-Fitr) It's possible that some calendars types that I have included in app align with it perfectly some years, but you shouldn't rely on that

I'll show a notice some days before Ramadan starts, and another before it Ends, in future versions to let users know about this
