UV neko was built to remove that one extra step. Open it, and the UV index where you are appears at once — as a number, and as a cat's face. ■ A cat's face shows the strength The UV index is grouped into five levels (Low / Moderate / High / Very high / Extreme), each with a cat wearing a different expression. You don't have to read the number to get it. Prefer sun and moon instead of the cat? Switch any time in Settings. ■ What's coming, at a glance ・ Today and tomorrow on one chart. Scroll sideways and the two run on together ・ What time today peaks, and how high it gets ・ Around what time it starts coming down ・ At night, the morning view: “rises again around 7 AM tomorrow” Before you hang the laundry. Before the park with the kids. When you're deciding what time to reapply. ■ Save the places you check often Alongside your current location, you can save places and switch between them — where you work, where you are travelling, where your family lives. Tap the place name at the top and the list opens, each place with its current index. Places in other time zones are shown in their own local time. If you have not allowed location access, or your location cannot be found indoors, the app shows a saved place instead. One saved place on the free version, up to five with Pro. ■ Keep a sun care record (free) Tap "Going out" and your time outdoors starts adding up. Log the time you had a hat or a parasol on, and the times you applied sunscreen. The day's UV curve and your time outdoors sit one above the other, so you can see whether you were out during the strong hours. The last seven days stack up too. It counts what you did — nothing more. ■ Home Screen widget (UV neko Pro) The small size shows the current index and the peak time. The medium size adds the next six hours as a chart. No need to open the app at all. ■ About UV neko Pro ・ Home Screen widgets (small and medium) ・ No ads ・ 5 saved locations (1 on the free version) Monthly and yearly plans are available.

Your location is used only to request the UV forecast for that spot, and is never sent to our own servers. UV neko displays a forecast. It is not a measuring instrument. Actual ultraviolet levels change with weather, altitude, reflection from the ground and other conditions. ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.3.2 — 2026-09-07 ■ Fixed ・The numbers on the chart are easier to read 　Hourly UV values, the hour labels and the "now" marker now stand out clearly against the light background. ・More breathing room on the main screen 　The heading, the cat and the big number no longer sit so close together. ■ Added ・Portuguese (Brazil) ### 1.3.1 — 2026-09-04 • The sun and moon are redrawn, with clearer faces. • Fixed the hat and sunglasses sitting too low on the Sun & Moon theme. The hat and parasol are larger now. • Reshaped the face cover. • Fixed gear rows showing up in today's breakdown before you had gone outside at all. • "Share Usage Data" now has its own screen, so you can read what is sent before you switch it. ### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-30 • A sun care record, free for everyone. Tap "Going out" and your time outdoors adds up. Log a hat or a parasol, and the times you applied sunscreen. See today's breakdown and the last seven days. • A cat now walks along the foot of the chart while you are outside, and curls up asleep at "now" when you come back in. • The Apple Weather mark moved to the top bar. ### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-28 • You can now save locations and switch between them and your current location. Check the ultraviolet index where you work or where you are travelling, right away (1 saved location on the free version, up to 5 with Pro). • When your current location isn't available, the app shows a saved location instead, so you are never left at a dead end. • Locations in other time zones are shown in their own local time. • The cat and the sun now move. The stronger the ultraviolet, the faster the light around the number streams outward. ### 1.1.1 — 2026-08-26 • The Apple Weather badge at the bottom of the screen now opens only when you tap the badge itself. Tapping the empty space next to it could previously open an external page. • When your location isn't available right away, the app now tries once more. You should see "Couldn't get your current location" less often indoors or just after launching. • If you use the app in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, you can now reopen the ad consent settings from Settings. ## More apps by Ryuiti Kogika - [MapForMe: Places to Visit](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/mapforme-places-to-visit/id6789819858) All apps by Ryuiti Kogika: https://appshunter.io/developer/6787002488 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
