About UVcheck Android App

The ultraviolet index or UV Index is an international standard measurement of the strength of sunburn-producing ultraviolet (UV) radiation at a particular place and time. The purpose of the UV Index is to help people effectively protect themselves from UV radiation, which has health benefits in moderation but in excess causes sunburn, skin aging, DNA damage, skin cancer and eye damage such as cataracts.
So there is always a need to find value of UV index before you step out of indoors. This is the very purpose of UVcheck. This application helps users in finding out the UV index in a geographic locality.
