1. 5/5Love it!

   Myself and my kids are all very fair skinned. I can’t tell if or when we need to apply sunscreen, just by looking outside. Sometimes the rays are strong, even when it looks cloudy, or not that bright out. That’s where this app comes in. It tells me how strong the rays are, hourly, and estimates how long it would take us to burn. I love this app!!! It’s cheap too! Only $2.99 per year. I use it all the time! First I check my weather app for rain, then I use this app to check the rays. I highly recommend this app. To the owners/creators, please don’t drastically increase the subscription cost.

2. 1/5YOU NEED TO READ

   so don’t get me wrong i love this app but every time i go somewhere and i want to now the UV it says somewhere that i was before and not my location so i have to delete the app and get it back ( minus a star )and i live in XXX and it said that i was in XX witch i’m very far from that place( minus a star )so it’s not accurate at all, sometimes and on my other weather app that’s very accurate and, trustworthy said the UV was like 7 and this app said it was 10 ( minus a star )so i was very confused. the widget is so hideous ( minus a star )so developer please make new widgets and it says the max UV is 10 and it’s not so (minus a star) and a lot of the stuff it pro and your basically paying for the hole app and the stuff that’s free is like the UV and 3 days of the UV and the widget that’s plain white with the UV on it and your location and whatever this thing is it’s like this 🔅\76 i love this app but it needs A LOT OF IMPROVEMENT i’m giving it a 1 star but would give it a 0

3. 5/5no words but AMAZING

   I don’t usually review apps but I think this one deserves it! This app is so simple and easy to use I love it so much! I set it as a widget on my home screen and it looks so good with my background. It has the weather, degrees, and UV. I’ve been traveling a lot recently and it switches for each city you are in without having to adjust any setting— convenient! I love using this app to track the perfect times to tan and how much sunscreen I need. The hourly is the best for that! Thanks so much for making this!!

4. 5/5Best UV exposure app I could find

   … and I tried several on the App Store. The user interface is more professionally done, and not many others have sunburn and vitamin D info. I would love a watch app! Also, it would be amazing if you could get sunburn and vitamin D info for the predicted UV index (not just the current one). EDIT: noticed that there already is a watch app! I’ve been using it daily for the last two weeks, and it has been very smooth.

5. 5/5Who woulda thunk . . .

   that I would find an app that tells me the UV index so useful? But I use it all the time. This app gives you the UV index forecast hour by hour. It also gives you the UV index forecast for the coming days. It even, with a touch of the screen, lets you know how long it will take you to get your daily vitamin D at a given UV index and how long it will take you to get a sunburn at that same UV index. Well worth the paltry yearly subscription price, IMO.
