No Apple health integration

I like the idea of this but the app is not very good and it doesn’t export the data to Apple health so I can’t incorporate it with all of the other health data I track about myself. Eventually my sensor broke and I didn’t bother buying another. I thought maybe I’d get a new one so I checked a year later and saw there’s still no Apple health support so I’m just done with them. If they’re not going to invest in continuing development of their product then I’m not sticking around.

Loved it but… Changing to a 1 Star

Original: Love the app and the data it provides. Would give it 5 stars if it connected to the Apple Health app and didn't need to have the app opened to update the dynamic island data.

Update: Bought a second sensor because the first got water under the face. Thought it was something I did so I didn't complain... One week after getting my replacement, my wife and I spent the day in the pool and both sensors stopped working and had water under the face. Beyond disappointed. Don't waste your money on this product if you live even a mildly active life and want to track your UV exposure…

Love it but…

Love the app and the data it provides. Would give it 5 stars if it connected to the Apple Health app and didn't need to have the app opened to update the dynamic island data.

Never guessing about skin aging or vitamin D again!

This app is incredible and absolutely exceeded my expectation. The notification are great, so is the learning section. I always know when I’m getting sufficient sunlight and never have to guess if I’m getting too much sunlight or not. Especially if the outdoor uv is high but I’m in a shaded area, the sensor is so precise. Sunscreen reminders are good and also projection of total if exposure through the day is super helpful. Everything I didn’t know I wanted.

Weiterhin keine Hintergrundaktualisierung

Nach dem Update wird nun zwar er Wert in der Island angezeigt, aber die Daten sind eingefroren und werden nur aktualisiert wenn die App aktiv in den Vordergrund geholt wird. Nachwievor keine Pushbenachrichtigung. Damit erhöht man sein Sonnenbrandrisiko mit dieser App+Sensor, da man ja erwartet eine Warnung zu bekommen. Die wird aber erst verschickt wenn man die App öffnet. Wenn Push und Hintergrundaktualisierung klappt sind es 5*. Aktuell leider eine Themaverfehlung. Und nochetwas: in der Island und der Live-Aktivität wird die Tagesdosis nach kurzer Schattenpause von 65% resettet auf 0% Prozent und bleibt dann auch bei 0%, obwohl in der App der Wert dann auf 69% zulegt. Sorry, aber mit so einer schlechten Umsetzung verursacht ihr mehr Sonnenbrand als ihr vermeiden wollt. Ich hoffe auf baldige Besserung.
