### 3/5 — Kind of ridiculous

*2020-07-30, version 1.1*

Silly, it isn’t that realistic as it just guesses and makes melanomas “wherever” ok your face. Yeah, this is not a good idea, no sun protection, and I always wear spf 30-75 daily but the predictions for none on your face are kind of random and not realistic.

### 2/5 — Not realistic

*2020-01-14, version 1.1*

This app just applies a standard “mask” on top of a photo and does not take into account the person’s personal features (freckles, present lines and wrinkles, spots, anatomy, etc.).

Also, I think that in some ways, the results are exaggerated. I have been wearing sunscreen daily for 12 years now (started at age 15 and will soon be 28) and not only have my previous freckles and spots almost all disappeared, my skin has also barely aged. (And this despite a childhood of living in tropical countries and several sunburns.) Many people tell me I look like I’m in my early 20s, and when I had a VISIA scan last year, my skin age was estimated at 21 years old and that was before I started using retinol and occasional laser treatments.

If I continue my current skin habits, I highly doubt I will look like the pictures produced by this app (including the ones with protection). Also based on how my other family members look (who never wear sunscreen except when sunbathing), I know what’s in store and not even they look like these pictures. (Yes, they’re obviously sun-damaged, but not in the “typical” way shown in the Sunface images.)

But my biggest gripe is the lack of realistic photo editing. My forehead and under eye area are my “weak points”, but this photo app doesn’t take that into account.

### 2/5 — Well... this was weird

*2019-12-27, version 1.1*

Instead of just normal photos the person ( me ) looked wherever I tapped on the screen. And if I tapped on myself, it would.. how do I explain this... Attack me or launch at me? Or she ( me ) would put a sad face on. I don’t feel comfortable with this app even if my fav YouTuber used it. Although even though I am pretty young it showed wrinkles.

### 2/5 — Eye opening

*2019-07-27, version 1.1*

Gee whiz!  Going to my dermatologist since melanoma runs in the family!

### 5/5 — Well, that just convinced me I don’t need a tan.

*2019-06-22, version 1.1*

And to put on some sunscreen.

### 2/5 — Creepy

*2019-06-16, version 1.1*

Just.. wear your suncsreen people...

### 3/5 — Lol

*2018-08-24, version 1.1*

I’m thirteen years old and I got this app to mess around, I don’t think that my face is will be wrinkled in ten years. It’s fun to use though

### 5/5 — Creepy

*2018-07-27, version 1.1*

Really creepy.  Sunscreen,  people.

### 1/5 — Unrealistisch übertrieben!

*2018-04-21, version 1.1*

Schaut euch doch die Rentner an , die 40 Jahre gesonnt haben , die sehen noch nicht mal so aus , in der App reichen ja schon 5 Jahre aus ,um extrem geschädigt aus zu sehen .  Ich gehe seit 15 Jahren im Sommer immer ins freie und genieße mein Leben ohne Chemie auf der Haut  und im Winter auch mal ins Solarium und sehe keineswegs so aus .

### 3/5 — Nichts für Menschen mit Glatze.

*2018-04-16, version 1.1*

Leider erkennt der Algorithmus keine androgenetische Alopezie. Gerade Menschen mit Glatze haben hier ein erhöhtes Risiko für NMSC. Kann man da bei der App nachbessern?

### 1/5 — Trash app

*2022-12-24, version 1.1*

Trash app that make no sense it makes your face looks different in purpose even you add 15 years and younger with or without protection and if you put the lightest shade it will make you look like a granny even as a 10 years old or younger. Don’t waste your time on this app.

### 1/5 — This app is misleading

*2020-09-29, version 1.1*

While it’s important to inform people about the risks of sun exposure this app misleads people by giving every individual the same result.

### 1/5 — Background sighing

*2020-08-14, version 1.1*

I really like the idea of teaching about sun damage, but the man in the background sighing and coughing while I looked at potential Sun damage was way too creepy for me! Deleted.

### 1/5 — Sighing and coughing?!?!?!

*2020-07-05*

Great idea for an app and very informative.  But whilst I tried to read the important, life-saving information I was treated to a variety of sighing, ahem-ing and other ‘hurry up’ sounds !!! Totally inappropriate and it doesn’t fit with the serious message of the app.

### 1/5 — • Biased & Rigged •

*2020-05-24, version 1.1*

When I first used this app on my face, I was shocked to learn that my skin would look so horrible after even just 5-10 years. However, I used a clear, unedited picture of my 2 month old nephew and was entirely shocked to see that if he used “no sun protection,” at 5 years old, this child would have complete age spots and significant wrinkles. Pure ludicrous.

Tan safe, moisturize, limit exposure, build up to a healthy tan. Avoid burning. Oh...and don’t trust any old app online.

### 1/5 — Not accurate for anyone under 40

*2020-05-21, version 1.1*

Entirely inaccurate. I’m 24, and the 20 year setting made me look older than my 90 year old grandmother. My mother’s in her 50’s and the 5 year setting made me look like her. I can see how maybe this would be more accurate if it was used on someone 40 or over, but for young people it’s just completely inaccurate. If your goal is to scare teenage girls with terrible, premature impressions of their aging faces, congrats, you’ve made the perfect app.

### 1/5 — Datenschutz?

*2019-08-02, version 1.1*

In vielen Aspekten ziemlich schlampig, technisch schlecht gemachte App. Nur allgemein gehaltene, insgesamt nichtssagende Ratschläge, „jeden Tag Sonnenschutz“, das weiß man auch ohne App. Und wann man auf „Datenschutz“ klickt, kommt eine Seite mit dem Titel „Education Against Tobacco Privacy“. Was genau hat das mit Sonnenschutz zu tun?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Show real sun damage

*2019-06-19, version 1.1*

I took a picture of my leg and it showed the exact same damage that was on my face and the exact spots. This app is crap and false.

### 1/5 — Really?

*2019-06-02, version 1.1*

Useless app.

### 1/5 — Kinda stupid

*2018-09-20*

I decided to see how well this app reflects reality so I grabbed a 10 year old photo of myself, noting that I don’t ever use sunscreen and it’s ages photo looks nothing at all like me (my skin doesn’t show any signs of sun related damage).

### 5/5 — Sehr gute App

*2022-06-15, version 1.1*

Zeigt, wie wichtig es ist Sonnenschutz zu tragen! Die App ist einfach zu bedienen und übersichtlich.

### 5/5 — So fun and so enlightening!

*2022-05-20, version 1.1*

Makes you want to one and by the strong as possible sunscreen and slather it on!

### 5/5 — WEAR SPF EVERYDAY

*2020-07-25, version 1.1*

Even though the app might be inaccurate WEARING SUNSCREEN EVERYDAY IS COMPLETELY NECESSARY IT WILL BENEFIT YOU AND SAVE YOU FROM FUTURE SKIN ISSUES THAT YOU COULD EASILY AVOID BY WEARING SUNSCREEN

### 5/5 — Tolle App mit guten Funktionen

*2020-04-13, version 1.1*

Ob leicht gebräunt oder total verfärbt und matschig ! Die App macht was sie soll ob du verschönert wirst oder einfach nur gucken willst wie du aussiehst wenn du 5 Jahre min Stopp in der Sonne lagst. Eine lustige App :)

### 5/5 — Interessant

*2020-04-07, version 1.1*

Die App ist sehr interessant und hat mich zum nachdenken bewegt. Außerdem macht es sehr viel Spaß das ganze mit seinen Freunden und Familie auszuprobieren. Läuft dazu flüssig und funktioniert ohne Probleme.

### 5/5 — Super App

*2020-04-02, version 1.1*

Dies ist eine interessante App, um die Auswirkungen der Sonne ohme Schutz zu sehen. Es ist sehr einfach zu bedienen und zeigt sofort die Auswirkungen

### 5/5 — Übersichtlich und schnell

*2020-03-31, version 1.1*

Funktioniert einwandfrei und es macht mega Spaß.

### 5/5 — Gefällt mir

*2020-03-31, version 1.1*

Mir gefällt die app & es ist interessant zu sehen wie man dort aussieht. Übersichtlich ist die App auch.

### 5/5 — Unglaublich

*2020-03-24, version 1.1*

Gut dass ich jetzt weis wie wichtig Sonnencreme ist

### 5/5 — Sehr hilfreich

*2020-03-21, version 1.1*

Es ist sehr interessant die Auswirken von Sonne oder Solarium mal auf dem eigenen Gesicht zu sehen. Die App ist super designed und die Ergebnisse sehen erschreckend echt aus.
