### 5/5 — Simple but useful

*2012-01-08*

This app is in an easy read format which does exactly what it says it will do, tell you the uv rating at time of looking at app.  Excellent as it saves getting caught in high uv unawares. I constantly use this app. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Crashes since last update

*2017-04-29, version 1.7*

Doesn't work anymore! Zero stars.

### 1/5 — DONOT GET THIS APP

*2014-04-16*

DONOT Get This App. It crashes when you open it. It doesn't load.

### 1/5 — No good to me

*2012-11-15, version 1.3.7*

I could only view capital cities listed, and couldn't add my hometown. This app was no use to me and when I found I couldn't use it, I deleted it.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work!

### 1/5 — Thumbs down.

*2010-11-05, version 0*

Do not like this at all. Much prefer the free app Oz Uv which takes your actual location into account.

### 3/5 — Needs more..

*2012-01-17, version 1.3.7*

Helpful with UV index but it means nothing to the average person... Should be an indication of average burn rate and other useful info.

### 4/5 — Easier than visiting the ARPANSA website

*2021-01-04*

This app saves having to go to the real time UV website

### 4/5 — Old, But Useful.

*2014-01-20*

I checked the readings against ARPANSA website, which shows real time UV, and it matches exactly (as hoped and expected).  Basically, it relieves you from visually checking and gives you the UV number NOW. OK for $1.

### 4/5 — A necessity in Australia!

*2012-05-22, version 1.3.7*

I use this everyday I know I will be outdoors so to protect myself accordingly and am becoming good at predicting it!

### 4/5 — Good App

*2012-01-07, version 1.3.7*

Excellent app!!

### 5/5 — Oz uv

*2013-09-10, version 1.3.7*

Great for people on the move for when we need to be sun smart

### 5/5 — Best App Ever!

*2013-09-09*

Great App especially when you have young children to look out for in the sun. Will give you minute by minute update. Only App I've ever paid for & worth every cent.

### 5/5 — Happy chappy

*2012-12-31, version 1.3.7*

Great app for the UV conscious, everyone should use this app

### 5/5 — UV app

*2012-12-21*

Best app ever, I am no longer afraid of going outside, I just check your app first.

### 5/5 — Usefull app

*2012-06-30*

Great use daily ride too work need to check uv and dress according too level very usefull clear indications perfect

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2012-04-07*

A great app which I check multiple times a day. My son has albinism and we need to be sure he is only outside at the safest times. Love the real time graph function. Would be great if Hobart were added though....

### 5/5 — Useful

*2012-03-27, version 1.3.7*

Excellent, especially if your fair skinned.

### 5/5 — Excellent site

*2012-03-17*

More location options or auto location would be great.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-01-23*

Does what it says. Very usefull and a bit scary to witness Australia's very high UV levels compared to Europe's average.

A good upgrade idea: the app should have an alarm that triggers when it reaches a certain treshold set by the user.

### 5/5 — Fabulous App

*2012-01-17*

I use it out on Yard Duty to show students the current UV reading. It would be even better if it could be location or major regional area specific in location choice. Have recommended this App to several parents!!!
