UV Index Widget - Worldwide14.1 - App Store

UV Index Widget - Worldwide brings one of the most useful pieces of weather data, the UV Index, front and center. Use this app to track your UV exposure, help plan your day outside, and avoid burning. Perfect for planning your tanning routine.

UV Index Widget - Worldwide is a convenient app that lets you monitor the Sun’s radiation levels anywhere on Earth. It shows the current UV Index, today’s peak forecast, and a 7-day UV forecast. You can add the UV Index to your Home Screen via widgets, receive alerts when UV Index reaches specific levels, and automatically log the data to your Apple Health app.

The app instantly displays your current UV Index (UVI) in an easy-to-understand format. Just tap and hold to view today's highest UVI reading. You can also check the sunrise and sunset times, along with the moment when the UV Index peaks.

7-day hour-by-hour forecast:
The Forecast tab provides an hour-by-hour UVI prediction for the next 7 days.

My Skin:
In the My Skin section, select your skin type for tailored safety tips and recommendations. You can also monitor your sun exposure and receive alerts when there’s a high risk of sunburn. Additionally, the app tracks your Vitamin D production from sunlight and automatically syncs the data to your Apple Health app.

Places:
In the Places tab, you can select any location around the world to see its current UV radiation and a 7-day forecast. It's a great tool for checking the UV levels at your travel destination before you head out.

Widget:
The app offers a variety of Home Screen widgets and Lock Screen Widgets, designed for both your iPhone and Apple Watch. Choose from multiple options to customize your experience on the Home Screen, Today view and Apple Watch.

Notifications:
The app alerts you when the UV Index exceeds your specified threshold, sending a notification whenever your area's UV levels surpass that mark. It also warns you when you're at high risk of sunburn and reminds you to reapply sunscreen.

Apple Health app:
The app automatically logs your location's hourly UV Index and the vitamin D generated from sun exposure into the Apple Health app. Open Apple Health to review your UV exposure history and vitamin D data.

Apple Watch:
Monitor the UV Index directly from your watch. Tap and hold to view today's peak UVI, just like in the iOS app. The watch app also features a My Skin section and a 7-day hourly forecast. Additionally, you can always check the UVI right on your favorite watch face using the included UVI complications.

The app will work anywhere in the world, and is a perfect companion whether you are at home or travelling.

The UV Index scale used in this app conforms with international guidelines for UVI reporting established by the World Health Organization.

Version History Made for iPhone Duo
Open it and UV Index uses the whole display: the UV dial with today's weather, bars, sun protection and tomorrow beside it. In book mode the sun graph and dial fit each page, and closed, everything fits the outer display.

Redesigned My Skin
New cards that show what matters right now. The Sun Exposure card puts your time in the sun, your vitamin D in IU and your burn limit on one bar. While you track, the Safety card counts down to sunburn.

Redesigned Forecast
Clearer cards for today and tomorrow, with color-coded hourly bars, the weather for each hour, and when you'll need sun protection. The coming days are one tap away.

Redesigned Settings
Settings have a new card design that's easier to scan and quicker to find your way around.

Two Columns on Bigger Screens
On iPad, and on iPhone Duo when it's open, My Skin, Forecast and Settings spread across two columns. The UV view adapts smoothly as you resize windows in Split View and Stage Manager.

Version 14.0
Ask Siri, Spotlight, and bigger widgets

ASK SIRI ABOUT THE SUN
Say "What's the UV index in UV Index app" and Siri answers with your live UV on a tappable card. Always end with "in UV Index app", or iPhone will answer from its own weather data instead.

More questions Siri understands:
"What's today's peak UV in UV Index app"
"How long can I stay in the sun with UV Index app"
"UV Index weekly summary" — Siri reads back your logged sun time, sessions, and vitamin D
"Search for Oslo in UV Index app" — jumps straight to that forecast
Start or stop sun tracking by voice, or tap Start Tracking right on the Siri card

Not sure what to say? Open Settings and tap "What can I ask?" in the Siri section. Tap any phrase to see other ways to say it, or press and hold to copy it.

YOUR PLACES IN SPOTLIGHT
Swipe down on your Home Screen and type a city you've viewed — tap "UV Index in Oslo" to open its forecast instantly. Your logged Sun Sessions are searchable too.

NEW EXTRA-LARGE WIDGET
Our biggest widget yet: a full-page UV dashboard with the UV wheel, sun times, hourly forecast, and safety advice at a glance. iPhone with iOS 27.

NEW CONTROL CENTER WIDGET

TRACK FROM ANY TAB
Start and stop sun exposure tracking from the new bar above the tab bar, with a live burn countdown and progress always within reach. iPhone with iOS 26.

SHORTCUTS
Build automations with UV level, peak time, time-to-burn, weekly sun exposure, and sun tracking.

UPGRADED APPLE WATCH APP
The watch app now uses Apple's modern single-app watchOS format. Because the complication moved into that app, watchOS may drop it from your watch face — add it back once and it works as before.
