First Release

Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

This application uses your GPS position to display the current Ultraviolet Index. Features: - Uses GPS latitude and longitude. - Display the ultraviolet index value. - Display a scale showing the ultraviolet index position - Display tips and recommendations about the current ultraviolet index value. The 'UV Index' is an international standard measurement of how strong is the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun at a particular place on a particular day. It is a scale primarily used in daily forecasts aimed at the general public. Its purpose is to help people to effectively protect themselves from UV light, of which excessive exposure causes sunburns, eye damage such as cataracts, skin aging, and skin cancer (see the section health effects of ultraviolet light). Public-health organizations recommend that people protect themselves (for example, by applying sunscreen to the skin and wearing a hat) when the UV index is 3 or higher; see the table below for complete recommendations.

UV Index APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the UV Index APK safe?
