Press kit
Everything needed to write about MySun accurately, including the lines we would rather you did not have to paraphrase.
Boilerplate
MySun turns the live UV index into a personal Tan Time. It combines local conditions with a person's skin type and the SPF and clothing selected for that session, then follows the live tanning session across iPhone widgets, Live Activities, Control Center, Siri and a full Apple Watch app. Sessions, daily check ins and progress photos stay on the device. MySun has no ads and no cross app tracking.
Positioning
MySun is deliberately not a "safe tanning" app. It states plainly that a tan is a response to UV injury, that no exposure level is risk free, and that its vitamin D figures are rough model estimates rather than intake or a blood level. Protection guidance and vitamin D estimates are kept structurally separate so that one can never be used to argue for loosening the other.
