## What is UV Alarm?

Know before you burn.
 
UV-Alarm monitors the UV index at your location and sends you a push notification the moment it exceeds your personal threshold. One tap tells you whether you need sunscreen — no scrolling through weather apps, no guessing.
 
▸ Real-time UV index with color-coded risk level
▸ Push notification when your threshold is reached
▸ Hourly forecast chart so you can plan your day
▸ Morning briefing with today's peak UV and time
▸ Home Screen, Lock Screen and Apple Watch widgets
▸ Personalized threshold based on your skin sensitivity
▸ Works worldwide — from your backyard to the equator
 
WHY UV-ALARM?
 
Most weather apps bury the UV index three screens deep. UV-Alarm puts it front and center. Set your personal limit once, and the app does the rest — quietly checking in the background and alerting you only when it matters.
 
DESIGNED FOR YOUR SKIN
 
Choose your skin type and UV-Alarm automatically suggests the right alert threshold. Fair skin gets warned earlier, darker skin later. Simple, personal, effective.
 
ALWAYS VISIBLE
 
Add a widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen and see the current UV level at a glance — with the hourly trend and today's peak. On Apple Watch, a complication keeps the UV index on your wrist all day.
 
YOUR LOCATION, YOUR RULES
 
The app uses your current GPS location by default. Heading on vacation? Search any city worldwide and check the UV forecast before you pack.
 
PRIVACY FIRST
 
Your location is processed on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no server. Just you and the sun.
 
One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads. Ever.
