Features & Capabilities

Sola is a science-based UV index and sun exposure tracker designed to help you enjoy sunlight more safely. Track accumulated UV dose and estimated vitamin D production using current UV forecasts, skin type, existing tan, sunscreen SPF, past exposure, and whether you’ve turned during a session.

With Apple Watch auto-tracking, Apple Health integration, widgets, and Live Activities, Sola makes sun exposure easy to monitor. Get reminders to reapply sunscreen, seek shade, flip for an even tan, or respond to changing UV levels. High-contrast themes keep the app readable outdoors, while safe sun time and Time in Daylight stats help you make more informed decisions. Sola provides informational estimates and is not medical advice.

User Reviews

Users praise Sola for strong health integration (Apple Health/Watch), robust sun-exposure planning, vitamin D tracking, and ease of use, with many noting long-term reliability and helpful developer support. The most recurring concern is pricing: a shift from one-time purchases to subscriptions, with notable price hikes and concerns about value. Overall, the app is highly regarded by those who want a health-focused sun-exposure tool, but some are deterred by ongoing costs.

Comprehensive sun-exposure planning: UV index-based timing, tan timer, skin type, exposed skin, and safety notifications
Vitamin D tracking and rich data/graphs
Easy to use with a responsive, supportive developer and frequent updates
Long-term reliability and usefulness for preventing overexposure and monitoring health

Cons

Pricing and licensing changes: ongoing subscriptions required to access features, price hikes, and past lifetime licenses devalued

I love this app, however there have been several times when I’m in the sun and I either have no signal because I’m paddle boarding or I decide to leave my phone behind. Even though it use to the app doesn’t have a way to put in past sessions so I’m not able to track those sessions.

The only sun tracker app that has enough detail and customization to actually be useful for Vitamin D. I do burn a little sooner than it says, but it's predictable. I just set my threshold a little lower and it works great. I love being able to see the average vitamin D over the last few months so I can catch myself bed rotting. I don't absorb supplements well so I have to do it old school. This app helps me get enough sun without overdoing it.
