Sunrise and sunset automations are not working correctly. Is there a way to fix this problem. I have found that an automation to turn on lights does not work at the correct time when using sunset as the automation time. The turn-off time is also not working at sunrise. If the automation uses a specific time it appears to work correctly.

auto light/dark mode not working (sunset to sunrise) Recently i noticed that dark mode (not night shift) didn’t turn on even after 2 hours after sunset. I decided to turn off and on again the “Automatic” switch (Settings > Display & Brightness) and then dark mode finally turned on. It worked as it should previously, but for some reason it stopped working now. “automatic” options are set to “sunset to sunrise”, not “custom schedule” Updated iOS 15.3 to 15.5 All system location services, including “setting time zone” and “system customisation” are on Time zone is set to auto

HomeKit Turn On Settings HomeKit has the option to turn the lights on when you get home. Is it possible to have them do so but only if it’s within an hour or so of sunset? Basically, don’t want them to do so if it’s bright outside, as there’s no reason but would be cool to have if it’s dark out.
