Forgot to mention. I'm not sure if you are already using this but the Navy has a nice pearl script you can POST to and retrieve a good bit of Sun/Moon data. They have to forms one allows you to enter the city name and state to get the data (not all cities are listed) the other allows you to specify lat/lon and a few other fields to get that sun/moon data for anyplace in the world.
The forms are below: For City Name/State only: http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/astronomical-applications/data-services/rs-one -day-us For the more advanced form: http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/astronomical-applications/data-services/rs-one -day-world Let me know if you have any issues using these forms.

He's already showing that in his app, from the sound of things, and is probably doing OK with that aspect. The issue at hand is how (and maybe whether) to work around a user having set their phone to a different zone than the one they're actually in. Nobody says this is affecting the absolute (UTC) time of sunrise/sunset in the calculations, it's purely about display.
