On these hot days when the sun is beating down, an app like SunBurnBot for iOS comes in handy. Its creator Ignacio told us that he had launched it with a single objective: to serve as a calculator to find out how long your sunscreen will last.
The way to use it couldn’t be simpler: download the app, indicate your skin type in a color chart, the protection factor of the sunscreen you’re going to use.
The UV index value of the sun at that time must also be entered. This data can be consulted in applications such as The Weather and is simply a number between 0 (sinister darkness) and 15 (surface of a burning sun); a day when the sun hits well maybe at 4 or 5 but may be higher in the hours when the sun hits more directly.
The result provided by the app is the minutes that the cream will protect you from ultraviolet radiation, it’s as simple as that. If you want more complications for the UV index issue you can connect the app with an OpenWeatherMap account, where the data is updated in real-time, and provide access to your positioning.
