Leave a Review EPA's SunWise UV Index
Lots of room for improvement
The app has some good information that can give you an accurate baseline, but it certainly has LOTS of room for improvement. Other than your location, there are ZERO personal factors taken into account. That might work well for some people, but I’m a natural redhead with light blue eyes and an extremely pale complexion, living in southern Florida, and I need an app that takes that into account. I read through all the EPA’s UV calculations, which consider wavelength, elevation, angle of the sun, ozone depletion, cloud cover, etc, but then only use some unknown “average” to calculate the sensitivity of human skin. Why bother being so accurate with your locational calculations to then turn around and assume every person is exactly the same? I really wish the EPA would realize that people are also as unique as locations, and that absolutely NEEDS to be taken into account.Show lessVulpecula9
No notifications
Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a way to configure notifications when the UV is about to go over a certain chosen level. Additionally the data appears to sometimes be unavailable.Ktobs
Useful but there are glitches
The app is very useful, especially the hourly forecast, but the daily map has some technical issues. First, one cannot read the scale on the map; second, the dates for the maps change when the orientation of the ipad changes from portrait to landscape; third, the map is rather small and cannot be enlarged on the screen.Show lessrwvr3
Works fine
Rough around the edges but works fine

Doesn’t seem accurate
This consistently shows much higher uv index than my other apps. It may be that this is the only accurate one, but it is more likely that it is inaccurate.dino-myte!
It does well what I need it to do
I have had skin cancer so I now take extra precautions by checking what the projected UV risk will be for the day and prepare myself. It does everything I need. Thanks, EPA!prescottjoe
Stopped working
This a 5 star app and brilliant for UV (and once u know how to use it, can accurately know the weather 5 days in advance much better than any 5 day forecast). That said, it stopped working 3 days ago and doesn’t seem to be coming back.Wally Digital
Dumb
Your weather app gives you the same infostropoliva
Please update!
Please update this for iOS 13/14! Thank you!Nightenticer
No incentives for this app to work
Clearly no one cares to update or make this app functional if it’s not for money. Total garbage, doesn’t even works 95% of the times.ExpertGuruMusic0914
