Forget about adding a survey as your product feature, focus on getting a widget for Android. That seems like a no brainer, and one that other reviewers have already given feedback on.

Great app and love the simple UI. Doesn't seem to have a widget unfortunately, and even with location set to Brisbane I'm not getting any live data 😕

This app worked really well for a week. Now it gives the message 'an error has occurred' but the 'close' button does nothing but recycle the same message. Meanwhile the screen judders and the graphics boxes flash on and off. Erasing cache and storage, uninstalling and reinstalling and restarting the phone have no effect. UPDATE: I had a speedy response from admin - thank you! - and when I checked the app next morning it was working perfectly. Fingers crossed that whatever it was is fixed! Edited

it just tells you the current uv index, no value for the next hours. so it's pretty useless.

Hi Aurelien, thanks for reaching out. The app shows the current UV level for your location and the daily sun-protection window, to help assess daily UV risk and so our users know when sun protection is recommended. We will pass your feedback on for future consideration.
