Welcome to the forum. Can you please add your location?
It might give us some ideas on why you think that the moon cycles displayed on this forum is the wrong way. :D

Mission accomplished! ;) You have added the location. Well done!
Regarding the moon... I have no clue really if it is right or wrong... But you made me curious now. :D

Haven't checked on the moon, but it is possible that you're correct.

To be honest, I'm only concerned with how much of it is casting light, and not which side is waxing or waning.

On the moon phase thingie there is a little button that lets you change which hemisphere your in. This swaps the moon over.

With regard to the iPad, apple iOS dorsnt do flash which is used for the moon phase thingie
