UV-Tracker und App

Really cool product! I would love to see a clear version where the internals are more visible. I think a clear expoxy would look awesome and make it more durable feeling.
Only complaint is it counts time while driving as sun exposure,y inderstanding is modern vehicle glass blocks UV light so this maybe shouldnt count as sun exposure.

Great product

The app design is a bit clunky. It doesn't render well on my phone. The educational information is not well integrated into the user experience, and some things are not clear about the interface including recording when you use sunscreen. The device seems to work well a big step up from the my skin tracker from L'Oreal in terms of accuracy and ease of use. It comes with two clips. Supposedly one is more flexible for thicker items and one is more rigid for thinner items. It's not clear which clip is which though; they look identical and don't feel much different in terms of rigidity. I keep mine attached to my walking shoes.

I love this little device! It’s great you don’t have to charge it, and it helps me get some natural vitamin d without risking damage to my skin!

As someone who regularly uses fitness trackers, smart rings, and other health-focused technology, I’m always looking for tools that offer actionable insights and promote better habits. I wanted a way to track my daily sun exposure, not just for vitamin D, but also to build more awareness around my outdoor time.

While I considered getting an Apple Watch for this purpose, I didn’t want to add another bulky device to my wrist since I already rely on a Garmin smartwatch for my fitness tracking. After researching alternatives, I came across the Sun-a-wear UV sensor, and I’m glad I gave it a try.

This device goes beyond what most wearables offer. One of its standout features is personalized recommendations based on your skin tone, a major plus that even the Apple Watch doesn’t currently provide. It has helped me realize how little sun exposure I get most days, and I now make a conscious effort to spend time outside every morning. The real-time UV alerts and reminders to apply sunscreen or seek shade are also extremely helpful, although I haven't yet reached those thresholds myself.

Initially, I wore the sensor on my shirt collar and hat, but the company generously included a free wristband with my purchase. I now wear it on my non-dominant wrist during the daytime. Impressively, the sensor can distinguish between being indoors, outdoors, and even in the shade, adding another level of accuracy to its readings.

The only feature I’d love to see added is the ability to sync UV exposure data with Apple Health, specifically total time in sunlight and UV exposure scores. For now, I log that information manually, which is manageable but would be much more convenient with native app integration.

I also reached out to the support team with a feature request and found them responsive and helpful, which adds to my confidence in the product and the company behind it.

Keep up the great work, Sun-a-wear team! I’m excited to see what new features and integrations you bring to the app. There's so much potential here especially for health tech enthusiasts and biohackers like myself.
