Hello to Bill Tschumy and team,
SS6 Pro Android Event Times (sunrise, sunset, moonrise... etc.) are off by several minutes compared to SS5 Android, SS5 and SS6 iOS.
My Phone is a Samsung Galaxy s8 running Android version 8.0.0.
I have ss5 pro and ss6 pro both on my samsung phone and both 5 and 6 on an iPad also an older Mac OS version on a desktop. These all agree on events
All daily event times are off by 4-5 minutes. I have carefully checked Location Settings to be sure latitude and longitude are all exactly the same.
Just curious ... Not a show stopper by any means

Just curious as Sky Safari has always been more accurate than other resources.

  Hi John, 

  Please provide side-by-side screenshots of the events in question.

  Thanks!

  The events with the wrong time on ss6 are sunrise, sunset, dawn start and the others on the Date & Time screen.

  SS5 screen shots have white background times

  Sorry about the size here.

  Hi John, 

  1. Compared to other sources, which apps are giving an incorrect reading for sunrise and sunset, etc?
  2. And what is your location for all these apps?

  Thanks!
