Know if it's safe to be outside right now — at a glance. UV Alert gives you a clear, GPS-accurate read on the sun over your head and a simple answer to the only question that matters when you step out the door: is it safe now, or time to protect your skin? Built for people who actually go outside — parents, runners, commuters, anyone who cares about their skin. Not tanners. This app is sun-safety and skin-protection only. WHAT YOU GET — ALL FREE • "Safe now?" verdict — the current UV level plus a clear go-or-protect answer, built to check outdoors in one glance. No number buried behind a paywall. • GPS-accurate UV that refreshes on your real location — no more seeing a town hours away. • Free home-screen widget that stays up to date — the exact feature other top apps lock behind a subscription. • Sunscreen reapply timer with reminder pings — start it when you apply, and we'll nudge you for the every-two-hours reapply so you never forget. • Morning high-UV notification that matches the in-app curve exactly — no more "6 vs 8" mismatch alerts. • Today's hourly UV curve — plan around peak hours, tuned for extreme year-round UV. WHY WE BUILT IT Most UV apps paywall the two features people want most — the widget and the reapply reminder — or bury the number behind ads and upsells. We flipped it. The basics are free, funded by light ads, with no subscription and no clutter. MADE FOR THAILAND, WORKS WORLDWIDE Thailand lives under extreme UV (index 11–14) nearly all year, yet the number is buried in the built-in weather app with no reapply reminder and no morning warning. UV Alert is Thai-first and English-ready, with the widget + reapply + alert bundle no other app owns here. Your device language is used automatically. SUN-SAFETY ONLY We help you protect your skin — never tan it. No tanning tools, no medical or health claims, no vitamin-D tracking bloat. Just clear, honest UV information and a reminder to reapply. FREE, HONEST, NO SUBSCRIPTION Light ads keep it free. The features you use every day are never paywalled.
