Not worth it

It just over exposes your skin and turns up the contrast

A Joke

Not worth it. Just a joke. Not of any professional usefulness

Worthless

This app is worthless. Don't waste your money. It's like it just takes a picture and makes it greyscale. I don't believe it shows sun damage at all.

Not a UV camera at all

Not just a BW filter

People who are saying this is just a black and white filter are wrong. The dev team is basically cycling through all the pixels in the image and finding edges in pixels values then flagging them as distinctive features. BW filter would have made my skin white on the plains of my face not dark or spotted. This app indeed is picking up on the differences between my skin pixels and it actually did show me the most damaged part of my head and shoulders (décolletage) as extremely damaged. In the original image it showed up clear and flawless.
