## What is ShouldISunscreen?

ShouldISunscreen gives you a simple, honest answer: should you wear sunscreen right now?

Using real-time UV index data and your skin tone, the app calculates personalized burn times and sunscreen recommendations specific to you. Because someone with very fair skin needs protection at UV 2, while someone with darker skin may not need it until UV 6 or 7.

FEATURES

- Real-time UV index for your current location
- Personalized sunscreen recommendations based on Fitzpatrick skin type
- Estimated burn time without sunscreen
- Clear sky peak UV forecast so you can plan your day
- Home screen widget showing current UV and sunscreen advice
- Live location search to check UV anywhere
- Set a default city for when location access is off

PRIVACY FIRST

Your location is rounded to ~10 km before any network request leaves your device. There are no analytics, no tracking, no cookies, and no ads. UV data comes from Open-Meteo, an open-source weather API.

FREE AND OPEN

No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No API keys. Just a useful app that answers a simple question.
