About

UVDose

Know your actual sun exposure, not a guess. UVDose turns your Apple Watch's daylight time and Australia's live ARPANSA UV index into a real erythemal dose, the same measurement dermatologists use, tracked automatically through the day. No manual logging of when you went outside. No forecast standing in for what actually happened. WHAT YOU GET Live dose ring See your running UV dose for today as a percentage of your personal safe threshold, set from a quick Fitzpatrick skin-type quiz during onboarding. Smart sunscreen reminders Get nudged to reapply based on your real exposure, not a fixed timer. Log sunscreen with one tap from your iPhone, your Apple Watch complication, or straight from the notification. History and burn tracking A 7-day dose chart, a monthly calendar view, and a lifetime ledger. Log a burn once and UVDose recalibrates your threshold so future alerts fire earlier. Mole Monitor Photograph moles against a body map, with guided framing so follow-up photos line up with the first. UVDose reminds you every 3 or 6 months and shows side-by-side comparisons over time. Free for 2 moles, unlimited on Plus. Share with your doctor One tap builds a PDF summary, mole photo history first and dose context after, then opens your own Mail app to send it. Nothing uploads to UVDose servers. Your data stays on your device. Apple Watch built in Your Watch does more than track daylight. It shows the same dose ring as a complication and mirrors every reminder, so you never have to reach for your phone mid-hike. PRICING (AUD) Free: live UV, daily dose ring, 3 nudges a day, Mole Monitor for 2 moles. Plus (AUD $19.99/yr or AUD $2.99/mo): unlimited Mole Monitor, full nudge engine, history, heatmaps, and the doctor summary export. Summer Pass (AUD $9.99): 90 days of full Plus, no auto-renewal, built for the months you actually need it. Lifetime (AUD $49.99): pay once, unlocked for good. Family (AUD $39.99/yr): share Plus across up to 6 people. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://uvdose.com.au/privacy.html UVDose is a wellness and education app. It gives educational estimates from daylight time and local UV index, not a medical measurement. Talk to your doctor about your skin.
