## SunSmart Global UV Description
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

## SunSmart Global UV Reviews in Australia

### ****- "Binary"
It would be helpful if there was a graduated scale during the day without having to go to other (less reliable) sources. 

There’s a huge difference between UV at 9am and 1pm a they require different strategies, particularly if not going out for very long in the morning and afternoon. 

Many other apps do this. An all or nothing approach isn’t helpful.
-- deepfried, 2024-12-01

### ****- "Widget please"
Good app, would be even more useful if it allowed to quickly check current/max uv rating with a widget
-- FIlippo Pappalardo, 2024-10-31

### ****- "Good app, just needs a widget"
Thank you for making this app. Please add a widget.
-- Balanced12345, 2024-10-24

### ***** "Working again!"
Previously had errors with locations and reporting, developer has advised the issue has now been resolved and confirmed the app is working correctly again. Great app to use for live data on current UV levels.
-- Ams083, 2024-10-10

### *---- "Doesn’t work at all"
Original version was fantastic.  I used it daily.
This version has zero data for my home.  Nothing.  Nada.
What the hell?
-- shyeraun, 2024-10-07

### ****- "Hmm"
Good when it works, which isn’t very often. The previous version was more reliable.
-- 107370BJ, 2024-10-06

### **--- "Only loads sometimes"
Frequently doesnt load any data for any saved locations evens after force closing the app. No update available. No longer reliable, like the original version
-- FrustrAnon, 2024-10-06

### *---- "Stopped working"
No longer loading any data since update to iOS 18. Uninstalled and reinstalled but still not working. Please fix! It was a useful little app.
-- NoLongerWorking70, 2024-10-05

### *---- "App doesn’t work"
The new version of this app doesn’t load 95% of the time. Such a shame. The old one was great and I never had issues with it. Now I open it and it sits there loading then just gives me an error. I’ve tried closing and opening, and deleting and re-downloading and it still doesn’t work.
-- ThePinkKid, 2024-10-05

### **--- "Disappointed"
Only works sometimes. The old app was much better.
-- Joe the Red, 2024-10-02

### *---- "Bug in the works"
App can’t find Adelaide, constantly says an error has occurred, other towns outside 100k limit seem ok though.
Needs attention
-- Oziroads, 2024-10-01

### *---- "Useless if you’re from a small town"
The old app was great, I never had any issues with it and used it all the time. My local government area has very high rates of melanoma and a very outdoorsy lifestyle so this app was perfect in summer. But the new app doesn’t have my location on it, the closest town is over an hour away so it renders the app useless now. 
Definitely would love to see my town on the app again so I can use it again.
-- Jesskhampson, 2024-09-04

### ***** "So much polish!"
Love the update - especially dark mode, large UV numbers on the Home Screen, and using the GPS to find a location 🙏 ☀️
-- annddyyyyyyy, 2024-07-02

### ***** "Essential for Aussies"
I love this app! So easy to quickly check IV ratings. Have shared with my friends and family.
-- Sort by status update, 2024-07-02

### **--- "Not too useful"
There are other apps more suited if you are more health conscious and not into the wokism of slapping on sunscreens, which can do far more damage than a sensible approach to UV exposure.
-- oztayls, 2024-05-13

### ***-- "Daily notifications no longer working"
I do love this app, but the main feature I need is the daily notifications of UV index. Which no longer works.
-- Brightonstormy, 2024-04-01

### ****- "Live UV index in Canberra always same"
It is interesting that the Live UV index in Canberra always is “Now 3.9 Max 8” even at the night and in the early morning in the mid of March 2024.
-- EndUser24, 2024-03-23

### *---- "Alerts are unreliable."
Compared with prior app, I’m disappointed that the alerts are no longer reliable.  If the main point of this app is to tell you when to wear a hat (etc), the if it doesn’t tell you this, it is pointless?
-- 74 DJ, 2024-03-19

### **--- "Notifications not working for months now"
Love this app but notifications have not been working for months now. I have it set up to notify at a certain time and when protection is required. Neither work. I have to manually go into the app to find out when protection is required. Please fix this. That was a great feature.
-- AuntyLouLou, 2024-03-08

### **--- "Alerts do not work"
Used to be quite good but with the Alerts not working, not so useful.
-- Long time cruiser, 2024-02-26
