SunshinePal

Why Sunshine Matters

In our modern lives, we spend so much time indoors that we often forget our connection to the sun. Yet, sunlight is essential for our circadian rhythm, vitamin D production, and overall mental well-being.

SunshinePal was created to help you bridge that gap. By using the sensors in your Apple Watch, it effortlessly tracks your time in daylight, giving you a clear picture of your daily habits.

It's not about baking in the sun; it's about finding that healthy balance. A morning walk, a lunch break outside, or just a few moments of fresh air can make a world of difference.

Let SunshinePal be your gentle reminder to step outside, breathe, and soak in the light.

🔒 Privacy First
