EDINBURGH – How would you like a smartphone app that offers a personalized sun protection strategy based on location and skin type?
At the 15th World Congress on Cancers of the Skin, Nina Goad, head of communications for the British Association of Dermatologists, discussed an app that does just that: the World UV App. The app, developed by the British Association of Dermatologists, provides daily UV forecasts based on an individual’s location via a smartphone or tablet. In addition, the app fine-tunes UV risk according to skin type.
In a video interview at the meeting, Ms. Goad discussed the app’s development and how patients can use it to improve their approach to sun protection.
