Tap 'Location', then tap the circle icon at top right to have the phone determine your location.
Alernatively, tap 'cities' and then type a city name. If the city is in the database it will appear in the list below the search box. Then just tap the city. I'm not sure how complete the database is for southern hemisphere cities, but I had no trouble with 'Sydney'.

Thanks for the reply, we did the city thing and selected Sydney, but it still showed the sun up in sky with mars and venus close by at 21:00.

Might be the Date & Time not set properly. This catches me out every now and then. Make sure it's set to "Now" or whatever time you want to look at.

Cheers,
Greg
