I have an automation to close all the blinds at sunset - but I’ve noticed that it’s not updating the time each day - despite in my smartthings account I can see the sunset time is shifting daily. if I delete the automation and recreate it - it will pick up the new time, but it’s not adjusting it fo…

That one is a years old topic. The issue what you are referring to is a quite new one, and many people faces it. Some heads up what you are facing: [image] Hello Home and Sunrise/Sunset SmartThings (Samsung Connect) I think you may be conflating two issues. In the legac…

[image] jlv: Of course, the reports of Sunset/Sunsize not updating for people starting coming in over 10 days ago. Why is there still silence from SmartThings? Indeed a good question. But you see, that there wasn’t even an Official Announcement regarding the v1, ADT and Nvidia Link devices, j…

The sunrise/sunset issue is a known bug with work ongoing to address it. Not that it makes a difference in this case but I believe the bug is in subscribing to the updated sunrise/sunset times and not with those times updating. With Graham’s help I’ll expand on that below.

The sunrise/sunset times that you see in the IDE when looking at a location are accessible by Groovy SmartApps, predominantly used by Smart Lighting.

In other words, workaround for now is using Smart lighting app for sunrise/sundown automations?

If it works for you, sure. (Even better, then the processing would be local to the hub rather in the SmartThings cloud)

Ok…I am using an automation in the new app and my events consistently fire one hour before they are supposed to. I have the automation set for 30 minutes before sunset and they have been going off early for more than a week (more like months). I’m in line with the other readers…contacting support …

You could hack a workaround by having SmartLighting to turn on and off a virtual switch at the times you want (based upon Sunrise/Sunset and an offset), and then set the Automation to trigger off that switch being on/off.

As of the end of last week sunrise/sunset is rescheduling properly.

Has anyone confirmed New App automations for Sunrise/Sunset are now working properly? Since @Brad_ST proclaimed: [image] Update on SmartThings Classic Shutdown Smart Lighting is a legacy integration that will eventually be deprecated. and since the new outages in Smart App are happening with…
