## Description

The **UV Index** Chrome extension is a simple and accurate tool designed to display the current ultraviolet (UV) index for your exact location. By using your device's GPS coordinates, it fetches real-time UV intensity data based on international standards, helping you understand the strength of sunburn-producing ultraviolet radiation near you. 

This extension is free and requires only location permission to operate, running smoothly on tablets and smartphones with Android 6 or newer. It provides instant UV index updates along with sun protection recommendations, making it a must-have for anyone looking to protect their skin from harmful UV exposure. The color-coded Sun icon visually reflects the UV intensity, and the app keeps your device's screen on for continuous monitoring.
