*2024-12-18*

SunSeek has completely changed how I approach sunlight exposure. The app is incredibly intuitive and provides precise, real-time data about sun positioning and UV levels. What I love most is the way it helps me make informed decisions about when and how to spend time outdoors.

The vitamin D tracking feature is a standout. It’s tailored to my location and skin type, giving me a clear picture of how much sunlight I need for optimal health. This has been so helpful, especially during winter months when sunlight is limited.

The app’s slick, easy-to-use interface makes it a breeze to incorporate into daily life. For anyone looking to improve their health or mood through sunlight, SunSeek is a game-changer.

Let’s face it we all need reminders to get us achieve things in our personal lives. This app takes that one step further and really helps me maintain focus on my health and fitness goals.

### 2/5 — Ok app

*2025-03-19, version 2.3.6*

Ok app. Subscription gets pretty expensive after the free trial. Good that you can see the sunlight lux using the app. However it supposedly gives you a recommendation for morning sunlight duration but it’s always 6 mins when it’s sunny and 21 mins when it’s overcast. So just save your money and use those timeframes without an app.

### 3/5 — Solid idea / hidden cost

*2024-12-20*

There was nothing obvious on the website or App Store listing about the cost. I’m not saying there shouldn’t be a cost, but tell me up front. I dislike when I see the cost only once I give my info. I won’t give a car dealership all of my info (and time) and THEN ask how much the vehicle costs. I like the idea (many people are D deficient) and the app looks really good. Three stars.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We understand how important transparency is, and we’ll work on making pricing information more visible upfront in the App Store listing and onboarding process.

We collect basic info to personalize the experience for you, and the premium option is entirely optional—you can always enjoy the free features without subscribing. We’re constantly adding value to make the premium plan worthwhile, but we’ll take your comments to heart to improve.

Thanks again for your support and for helping us make SunSeek better! 🙏☀️

### 4/5 — Great design but overpriced

*2025-01-02*

I like the modern design very much, but the app has far too few features to justify the price.

I find a big disadvantage that, for example, over a period of several minutes only the lux value from the start is recorded and the "development" cannot be taken into account. Especially in the evening hours towards the sunset I notice it.
I also couldn't find out whether the app can take into account whether you are only in the sun with your face, in a T-shirt or topless. Which accordingly exposes more or less skin to solar radiation (for vitamin D production).

The functionality to share the data with, for example, Apple Health in order to be able to provide the values in other apps is also missing.

UPDATE 02.01.25:
Because they included new features got, I will give the App now 4 instead of 2 stars. „Only“ 4 because I still think that it is too expensive.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We’re continuing to add new features each week, and will make the experience better over time.

We’ve now added support for Apple Health, so activities will be synced. 

For vitamin D production we’ve added a slider/picker to identify if the user is fully clothed and limited skin visibility. This will reflect the IU captured from the sun. 

Capturing Lux overtime is a cool idea. We’ll figure out how to implement this in an effective way. 

Thank you for helping us make the best sun app for health ☀️

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Yea this is fire

*2024-12-20*

I’ve known for a while that I need to get more sunlight but using this app has actually given me the motivation needed to maintain that as a habit. Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** So glad to hear the app is helping you! Thank you for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Game Changer

*2024-12-20, version 2.0.6*

I track my sunlight exposure like a data geek. Love that Sunseek makes it fun, easy, and actually helps with my health. Highly recommend for fellow sunlight nerds!

### 5/5 — Choosing to be proactive

*2024-12-19*

I’ve known the benefits of the sunlight for a while, from listening to Huberman’s podcast to that natural feeling of taking a step outside. But with changes in the season and cloudy days, I really realized how much I take it for granted. 

Being proactive and finding this app really made a huge difference! Logging my walks, tracking the amount of sunlight I receive and measuring different amounts of light (inside/outside) really has been making a huge difference.
