Bought the subscription, to help me keep track of my time in the sun. Thought you could log entries, and later review your logged in data. Not the case. Not sure what this app is good for without this feature, nor why subscriptions are So Expensive when it fails to offer a "Logging Feature" for future Reference. Just gives you information you could otherwise find free on Google with your Location Enabled. Canceled a year subscription within the first month of buying it. Save your Money.

It was cool when it linked with my fitbit. But doesn't anymore. It also crashes constantly so when you're tanning the timer just stops, so you need to rely on another timer or you loose track and burn. You can't do much, unless you go pro. The skin photo doesn't work either. You can't track Vitamin D without Pro and you can't manually put in the UV reading if your city is out of range.

The idea behind this product is great. The execution of it? Terrible. A waste of your time and money. The first problem is that you need to buy a device which is ~$99 CAD. Secondly, you need to buy a pro account for $25 annually. The device shipped late with little communication from the team. Upon receiving the device, I hadn't received my free pro code (which is only for one year, not a lifetime). When I opened the package, the device felt terrible in my hand. Rather than hard, smooth plastic device I had been expecting, it was a very gross velvet texture. I emailed the team for my pro code, which I eventually got. Opening the battery cover to remove the plastic sticker was a nightmare. I could hardly get the back cover to screw off because the clip part kept pushing it down. I tried to follow the instructions in the manual to connect the device, but it seems to me that the instructions are out of date and are actually for an older version of the app. The UX of the app is downright AWFUL. They constantly ask you to "Rate 5 Stars" (sorry, no. You're annoying.) and the "back button" for Samsung doesn't work, it backs you out of the app rather than previous screen. Don't buy it.
