UV-Index is a simple widget that displays the current UV-Index and it's daily maximum for any location. The widget makes use of GPS coordinates and retrieves the UV-Index using a web service provided by UVIMate Project (https://uvimate.herokuapp.com/uvindex-api). This API provides a convenient way to get the UV-Index including relevant corrections for ozone, cloud coverage and accurate altitude data.</p>

It would be great to remember last location and update it only on manual request. Or to have option to choose how. Looking up gps every time takes away from otherwise great and useful widget.

Great App! If you could have an option to use "Last known position" and then a "update position" button that would be perfect!

I have a Garmin vivoactive 3 which is compatible with this app but for some reason I'm unable to use it because all it says is waiting for GPS then will just return to my watch face after a while

Hi. I have the Android version of that app purcased. Regarding this version for Garmin watch i guess is using the phone GPS instead the watch GPS. I tought that is acquiring the GPS position from the watch then use the data connection from the phone to get the UV index. But if not enable the phone GPS the index is never retrieved.

Nice app. The main think I'd add is to use last known position.

Tolle App, sowohl für die Garmin, als auch für`s Smartphone! Würde mich freuen, wenn auf der Garmin auch der Ozon Wert angezeigt werden könnte.

Thanks for your feedback. The ozone layer thichness is used by the app to calculate the UVI. It’s a major factor for the UVI and can cause changes by more than 20% from day to day with same weather and same location. However, this value has nothing to do with the ozon value measured at the eath surface In contrast to the ozon layer thickness I do not have high quality global data for ground level ozon.

Really useful! Only improvement would be some way of using the phone location or some way of speeding it up. Is the exact GPS location all that important? Like if it was retrieved in the last week use that?

Works nicely. But would be much more useful as a data field.

Agree with another review that says forever retrieving UV index but never shows data. Not very helpful to just say 'need a GPS fix' without providing any additional information on how to do that. Vivoactive3

Installed on 6/20/17 and made sure my watch was up to date and the widget would not work on my vivoactive HR.

Jetzt perfekt - sowohl auf der Chronos als auch auf der Fenix 5x. Vielen Dank für das superschnelle Update !!

Perfekt auf der Fenix 5x. Auf der Fenix Chronos mit der aktuellen 5.80 laufen die Buchstaben ineinander.

Very good idea for aoo. Works great on Fenix 5. If I may suggest - it would be useful to show measurement on the colorful scale (green, yellow, orange, red...) - to make it easier to interprete (using scale described here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_index)
Sorry, no statistics available yet.
