UV Index Widget - Worldwide for Negative User Reviews
✓ BasicQuite basic. Doesn't give any really value beyond what any weather site would give..Version: 1.4
✓ Nit as expectedWon’t give exposure times for forcasted times and this app isn’t eligible for a refund..Version: 9.1
✓ Uv rating inaccurateI tried this app but seeing it's supposed to be important data for health reasons, it's inaccurate for my region... hence it's useless.Version: 1.5
✓ Isaac Emiliani’s24 February 1999.Version: 8.0.2
✓ Fake newsI do like this app concept as it could be very helpful, but the information given is highly inaccurate and many more reputable sources show much higher UV index as this app is saying. Good app within its concept but the content is inaccurate..Version: 7.3.3
✓ Life saver!This app is a life saver for me literally. Having survived a diagnosis of stage 4 Melanoma, I use this app every day to see when it’s safe for me to walk the dog or garden. I know when to cover up thanks to this app. It’s quick, easy and accurate to check our harsh Aussie sun’s UV levels. Thank you!!! Just recently I’ve noticed my iPad and iPhone give different readings. The iPad has the pro version and the iPhone the free. The readings on the iPad are always too low compared to the phone. Weird. That’s the only reason for the 3 stars, otherwise it would be 5. I rely on this app so much..Version: 9.0.1
✓ You have to pay not to allow gps accessYou have to pay to use the app without gps access. 4.99 so I can type my location in otherwise I can’t see the UV index..Version: 8.0.2
✓ Some good, some less goodIn this update, I like the possibility to switch cloud cover on or off. On the other hand, I miss the weather forecast for the day in the widget. Also, there is something weird with the way notifications work: say I set a threshold of 5, I get notified when the UV level reaches 6 on the way up, and 5 on the way down….Version: 9.1
✓ Free widget now pro only. Shame 👎🏻The widgets were free in iOS 13 and now you have to pay to get the same widget in iOS14. No, thank you. Deleted..Version: 6.6
✓ Not exact readingsUnfortunately it does correspond with the actual UV readings. Close though. Especially for Oshawa, Ontario, Canada..Version: 1.3
✓ UV inaccurate for my areaWidget states it's 5 in my area, weather app says 2 and it feels like 2. A bit disappointing!.Version: 1.5
✓ Why allow download?Doesn’t work unless you purchase premium… How can a 80° full sunshine day, display 0 for a UV? That makes no sense… Oh it’s because you Have to purchase the premium or upgrade. Why allow the app to download to begin with instead of just charging up front and being honest? Thanks for the waste of time. Have a nice day..Version: 8.0.1
✓ RubbishDon’t even bother..Version: 7.3.3
✓ In app purchase!Maybe I’m tired of downloading an app for free and finding out all you get is a pretty icon on your screen. The app (without a paid upgrade) shows the UV for the day when you open app. I haven’t tested if it does it while I’m in Nepal next month. If it does I’ll update my review, but I’m not holding out much hope..Version: 2.4
✓ Without subscription payment app is uselessI was really interested to try out this app, from a couple of quick review reads it sounded like exactly what I was chasing. After installing, I completed the skin profile questionnaire and setup, but have quickly realized the app is functionally useless without a paid subscription..Version: 10.0
✓ Need auto-update functionThis app is perfect for my childcare centre. We use it to constantly show children the UV here in Australian, and keep them safe. However, I would love if the app updated the UV automatically ever 1-5 minutes when left open. Currently we have to tap the screen to update the UV, which isn’t perfect. Perhaps an option to apply for educational or childcare purposes with different functionality? We just love the UV display but only want that!.Version: 9.0
✓ Great when it worksI love this app, and use it to help know when I need to be more careful with my time in the sun. However, I’m noticing large periods where it doesn’t work. It isn’t showing the UVI, I’m not getting the alerts I requested for the UVI going above or below the requested alert level, and it’s incredibly infuriating. I work outdoors, and I have a housemate who’s sensitive to the UVI, and we both rely on those alerts as well as the app actually telling us what the UVI is. Right now, as I type this, it’s saying the UVI is 0 with a peak UVI of 0, bug when I go to the forecast it says the peak is 6. This needs to be fixed..Version: 7.2
✓ Not accurateThe app looks good, however the figures are not accurate compared to other weather apps that gets updates several times a day, often this app shows a high reading of 7 based on a prediction probably few days before when actually the weather changed and the UV index is actually 4 after updates, i check several apps few times a day and can see the UV index changes, whilst this all keeps the same UV prediction fixed and not changing with weather updates.Version: 2.0
✓ Keeps crashingGreat app but it keeps crashing every time I open it. It’s very annoying as I have the pro version. Contact me if you want more details..Version: 5.5
✓ Haven’t even had the chance to try itI genuinely think, at full working capacity, this app would be my godsend. I love the idea of an hourly forecast and push notifications for a customizable UV Index. And as a UX designer, it’s my opinion that this UI looks clean and intuitive, which I highly appreciate. However, the app doesn’t seem to recognize that I started my 3 day trial. The app store shows I’m subscribed, but the app is still blocking me from accessing premium options. I’d love to try out this app and base my rating off of my actual experience with it after this is resolved. Edit: It actually seems to be very inaccurate. The app said it was UV 6 when it was actually UV 8. That’s a large disparity. I think I’ll stick to the default weather app on my phone, unfortunately..Version: 5.1
✓ JxxDoesn’t work. Graph shows a peak but index shows 0..Version: 7.4
✓ No forecast means limited usefulnessIn the "forecast" tab, it only shows me today's data when I look at it at night. but that's now old data - not a forecast. it's the same problem with the spinner UI in the UVI tab - it spins backward to earlier on the day. that's useless old info..Version: 8.0.1
✓ Needs workI love the concept of this app but it is highly inaccurate for my area. This entire hot and sunny week it has given a UV rating of 5.5 or so at peak times and warned of sunburn in 30 minutes. Today, it has been gloomy with a very heavy (and loud) thunderstorm all day. It is currently putting out a rating of 6.3, saying risk of sunburn in 20 minutes, and the weather forecast says “clear skies”. I know there is definitely still UV to be wary of on cloudy days but “clear skies” and a rating of 6.3 is definitely wrong and gives me the impression that this app cannot actually help me understand the UV risk - which was the whole point of downloading it and paying for premium access. I hope I can get my money back, I only downloaded it this week. I will check back in the future and see if it would be worth a try again. I believe it can be good, it just needs work on data sourcing.Version: 8.0.1
✓ FuRubbish apps.Version: 7.2
✓ Misleading screenshots in App StoreApp Store shots appeared to show a graph with when UV levels got to extreme - app doesn't actually seem to do this. The in app purchases ($1.49) change nothing at all in my app..Version: 1.4
✓ I have just download the app and it has a really old fashioned designI wish you could add logo design and in general a more attractive design This app looks very old fashioned And the design for Apple Watch is truly ugly The menu has too big letters and the drawings of the circle interface with rainbow circle is so simple and at the same time old fashioned . It looks like an app for old people.Version: 9.0.1
✓ Broken nowWell.... Idk. I'm a redhead with pale skin so I wanted a good uv app. At first it was awesome, and my favorite uv app... But now it no longer works on my phone!! It always says the uv is 0 and I know that is definitely wrong. It just doesn't work anymore. I know it's broken because it still works on my iPad... But I don't want to have to bring my iPad everywhere just to check the uv. It was great on my phone/ watch but oh well. Can you please fix this?.Version: 6.7.1
✓ Not an actual iOS 14 widgetSorry.Version: 6.5.2
✓ Not currently working keeps crashingNormal works fine in the UK but not here in New Zealand.Version: 4.1.2
✓ Not very accurateToday it’s mostly cloudy, no way can the UV be a 6.8! The weather network says uv is low right now, I trust it more than this app..Version: 2.7
✓ Does not updateBoth the Home Screen widget and the app itself are not updating. The widget can be out of date for days (!!!) and when I open the app it will show me old, but different data. Then there’s almost invisible loading indicator in bottom right corner that will spin for up to a minute before actually showing something relevant. The location doesn’t seem to update well either - I’d be hours in a different town, and it would still show the previous one..Version: 6.8
✓ Don’t waste your timeBought this app and then paid for the premium option to get the UV bars which cost me $10 and did absolutely nothing. 🤬😡😤🖕.Version: 5.2.1
✓ SunburntGood but be very careful overtrusting the “risk of sunburn” time in the app. I went out sunbathing for the first time this year and saw the app say risk of sunburn in 1 hour 10 minutes”. I stayed out for at most 45 mins and still got minor sunburn. It’s still a good app to show how strong the UV is, but probably a good idea to at least halve the limit if it’s your first time getting exposed in a while….Version: 8.0.1
✓ Actinic KeratosisNot very accurate. I control my outdoor activities based on the UV numbers. Your numbers and the weather networks are not even close..Version: 2.1
✓ Good in the U.K.I found the UV data to be sensible (and most probably fairly accurate) in the U.K. but when used in other countries the data seems wildly inaccurate (e.g. UB index of 8.9 during a hurricane- unlikely!).Version: 3.0
✓ Innaccurate work of fictionHad uv index at 4 at night and went higher as night went on - how is this possible?, stated my suburb was overcast when it was clear blue skies. Was way off the government agency in Australia that measures UV. For something that is to assist people making healthy sun choices the uv index needs to be super accurate and timely..Version: 4.2
✓ UV Index is not accurateI used the paid version of the app and it shows the UV index at 5 while the weather app on my iPhone and Accuweather both show 10 and 11 respectively. I just went for a walk and even though it’s 73, I felt my skin scorching, so I’m more inclined to believe the other two apps. This app has one job and it failed. I don’t generally write 1 star reviews but this being potentially used as a health app, I believe inaccurate information presents a public hazard..Version: 5.2
✓ Waste of time & incorrectCharges for widgets when most apps don’t, can get better elsewhere and the UV rating is usually incorrect by a lot. Was saying my area was only 7 when it was UV 11 which is shown on multiple different sites.Version: 6.7.1
✓ Widget won’t workUnfortunately I bought a subscription thinking I would get to use the widget option on my home screen but no matter what I try I can’t add the feature to my phone. It was the only reason I got it so a little disappointed. A cool app if the features worked.Version: 8.0.1
✓ Stopped workingIt was fine but since iOS 12.3.1 and t doesn’t work for me.Version: 5.1.9
✓ Not accurate for MelbourneThe app doesn’t give accurate readings for Melbourne Australia. And it Costs $7.49Aud.Version: 10.0
✓ Difficult to predict based on their wheelI downloaded 5 similar apps to test them all out, and I gravitated towards this one first because of the nice graphic. However, the rotating wheel, rotates in the wrong direction, and instead of showing you how the UV index increases throughout the day and decreases towards the evening, it is more binary, and will only show you first thing in the morning, midday, and late in the evening. That’s no good for me. I need to know during the daytime when it’s okay for me to be outside, but this app can’t tell you. Instead of going from green to Orange to read to purple, it can only go from yellow to purple and nowhere in between on those days when it is extreme. And in Sydney during the summer every day is extreme. It would’ve been nice if they allowed feedback from within the app, but obviously they are not interested, so I am better off forgetting this and moving onto the next app..Version: 4.2
✓ Basic function goodTime font it too small, too much unused space between histogram bars.Version: 10.0
✓ Complication fails to updateLove this app but after updating to Apple Watch 7 the complication fails to update on the watch face. This seems to be a reoccurring problem every time I update hardware..Version: 7.3.3
✓ CrashesRecently the app won’t open on iPhone or Apple Watch with out quitting immediately. Really frustrating..Version: 5.1.3
✓ Doesn’t read UVUses location services to provide data. You can get that from weather websites. It does not read UV. Disappointed..Version: 6.4.1
