Mostly good

I like this app a lot because it reminds me to wear sunscreen and highlights the importance of wearing spf to prevent skin cancer and premature aging. My only suggestion is that dark circles shouldn’t be categorized as a problem associated with aging. Dark circles are caused by a variety of factors and for me that is seasonal allergies. The dark circles list make my age 28 when I’m in fact 21. I also have freckles but that is more of a genetic thing or can be attributed to my skin type.

Doesn’t work

I enabled the sun tracker to track my vitamin D and it doesn’t even work after paying for the subscription. It doesn’t even track anything it just freezes even with the UVI at 7 it says I’ve gotten 0 Vitamin D after 25 minutes in the sun. I’ve reinstalled the app, checked my IOS version, and restarted my iPhone and it still does not work. Broken app. I regret paying for the subscription and would like my money back. There is a free app called Dminder and it actually works. Edit: Day 2 of trying to track and it still doesn’t work. It tried to work in the middle of the night when the sun wasn’t out. Won’t work during the day when the sun actually shines. Edit: Over a week later and the app still doesn’t work. Edit: still doesn’t work

Love this app, but sad about the pro cost

Love this app! I am fair skinned and exposure conscious because wrinkles are bad in my family and I love this app. I love how it tracks your exposure, alerts you for various things as you ask it to, analyzes your sunscreen, AND SKIN via selfie.. which even if it’s not accurate it’s hella fun to use. My friend and I love to take different pictures and compare our skin age ha :). My only wish is that the free version offered what the pro version offers because you really miss out on the useful & super fun features just using the free version and although I love this app, have been using the free version for over a year now, after doing the PRO version trial and seeing what I had been missing I don’t think I can go back to using the free version. :( AND UNFORTUNATELY at $3.99 a month even if I wasn’t going through changing jobs right now and money wasn’t tight I just honestly think $4 a month is a lot. So I plan on keeping the free version of app installed on my phone, but will be on the hunt for a competitor app offering the same features seen in the Pro but for free or cheaper. :/

Latest version does nothing without $$

Need $149 device to track exposure & Vit D.
Free Version does nothing. No timer no exposure. No Vit D estimate.
Latest update eliminates any usefulness of this app with paying for pro.
Free App used to let one track exposure and supplements.
Cannot even get a timer and turn notifications in current version.
Only use it occasionally so $25 a years is a no go.
Deleting app after this review.
On a side not why does the App Store keep my deleted and obsolete apps? I want them gone permanent.
