Description by Cancer Council Vic.(from Google Play)
Protect yourself when the UV is at damaging levels with the SunSmart Global UV app.
Powered by world leading health, radiation and weather organisations, the app provides worldwide UV levels and clear guidance as to when sun protection is and is not required.
Travelling and spending time outdoors is one of life’s great joys. Knowing when sun protection is recommended wherever you are in the world gives you confidence to enjoy the sun safely, minimizing the risk of skin damage which can lead to cancer.
The SunSmart Global UV app takes the guesswork out of being safe in the sun with daily sun protection times sent to your phone along with simple advice for protecting your skin.
***What are sun protection times?*** Sun protection times are linked to the UV Index and are advised when the UV is forecast to be 3 and above. This is consistent with the WHO UV Index guidance and has been determined as the level at which damage to the skin is likely to occur more quickly.
The app will advise you that sun protection is required during specific times when the UV is forecast to be 3 and above so that you can adequately protect your skin.
***How is it different to other UV apps?*** The UV app has the backing of world-leading health and meteorological organisations making it a trusted and reliable source of advice.
Unlike other apps, the SunSmart Global UV app is designed to simply inform users when sun protection is required and when it is not.
***What are the key features?*** - Daily UV levels for the local area including sun protection times - 5-day forecast including UV and weather forecast - Access to the forecast UV and sun protection times anywhere in the world

Great at alerting my family to UV times. Have it set to remind me at 8am and again 20 minutes before sun protection required, so we can either finish up what we are doing or apply sunscreen. Installed it I. My 9yo's tablet, and she will often tell me when sun protection is required. Would be great if you could put into the app what time you applied your sunscreen, and it would tell you when it was working, and when to reapply. For those of us with ADHD time blindness...

Really good app and it's fast. Only thing I would wish for is a widget that shows the current UV and max UV for the day, indicating whether sun protection is required. The notification system is pretty good too though.

The only app that does what I need: I can FINALLY schedule a notification about the highest predicted UV index today.

Kosovo is not listed as a country, that means cannot select my location to use the app. Other locations for some cities are completely wrong and showing false information, hopefully this is not done intentionally. 👎

Gives vastly different UV levels than the same location on your website. The app says 1.9 in Brisbane and the website says 4. The app consistently reports much lower levels, which is actually dangerous. Yesterday the UV in Brisbane was 8 on the website and 4.8 on the app. It was the afternoon, and it was obviously going to be 8. How do you get such a fundamental thing wrong? Which is it? Now it's 12 on the website and 1.8 on the app?

Does not work in the USA. All locations I searched have "no data available"
