Bug Description

When selecting your location, the city of Munich in Bavaria/Germany is recognized as "Munic" - that is not the correct spelling in English. Alternatively, the German international spelling would be Muenchen, and the German spelling München.

This is mildly frustrating only insofar as it takes a while to find the recognized spelling for the place, which you need in order to set the time zone correctly.
