What would you like to see?

While the ability to automatically set the dark/light mode depending on sunrise/sunset is nice, the ability to just input custom times would be very helpful.

Example: Add another option for "custom time" instead of just "location" and let the user input their own time.

I agree because while I like the sunset to be automatic to help not being awakened too late from the screen light, in the morning it is quite the opposite: I would like to be awakened by it probably earlier, chosen by my work schedule.

Currently the way the event scheduling is decided is not in a specialized class and is exploded accross the whole main (Applet) one, which makes it difficult to maintain, especially in order to implement reliably anything else related such as the feature discussed here.

So it would be quite some work and I won't have the time for this kind of overhaul before April or May.

Interesting, and thanks for the info, @guillaume-mueller . I came here to request the same feature. I agree with you. Sunset time is fine with me, but enabling the light theme at 7 a.m. is too early for me. I just click the applet to revert it back to dark more, but I wish we could set a custom time.
