Shortcuts based on sunrise/sunset don't work

I had the same problem.
There was one tick in the system preferences location services:
Location-based services must be ticked on.

That cured the whole problem

That makes sense. How else would it know when “4 hours before sunrise” is?

Good morning
I jumped into the string because I have a similar station
I have tried to set up a reminder in my automation to execute one hour before sunset but it doesn’t execute
All my location services are on, including the weather one
If I were to replace that with a specific time, the action executes I’m running 16.5.1. Ios
I would be grateful if you can give some inputs based on your past experience

Hi
I’m sorry but I noticed you had a solution so am jumping in
I have a problem with shortcuts and automation executing at sunrise or sunset, if I replace it with a specific time, it executes if I run it manually it executes
I’ve activated location based services for
Siri
Weather
Shortcuts
Still my sunrise sunset action does not execute

I have an update

The shortcuts are working

Spent the entire morning with the Apple support team

They asked me to reset everything which I did and the shortcuts started to work

Thank you everyone for your help
