What’s New Version 1.4.1
Fix for an issue where some users experienced crashes.
Description
Meet Burnie: Your personal sun safety companion for smart UV protection.
Did you know that getting sunburnt just once every two years can triple your risk of melanoma skin cancer? Protecting your skin shouldn't be guesswork. Burnie takes the math out of sun safety by calculating exactly when your sunscreen wears off, based entirely on your unique skin tone and real-time local UV levels.
With Burnie in your pocket, you can safely enjoy the outdoors without the worry of sunburns or long-term skin damage.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Set Your Profile: Input your birthday and your precise skin tone using the scientific Monk Skin Tone Scale.
2. Real-Time UV Tracking: Burnie automatically tracks the live UV index exactly where you are.
3. Start Your Countdown: As soon as you apply your sunscreen, tap "I applied sunscreen" to log your SPF and start your personal protection countdown.
4. Smart Reminders: Burnie watches changing UV levels throughout the day and sends a gentle nudge exactly when it is time to reapply.
KEY FEATURES
- Personalized SPF Guidance: Tailored recommendations matching your exact skin profile and skin tone.
- Protection Countdown: A dynamic live timer showing you exactly when it is time to reapply.
- Dashboard: A clean overview featuring your live UV reading, weather forecast, and active countdown.
- Hourly UV Forecasts: Plan your day, walks, or beach trips using the hourly UV chart.
- Beautiful, Clean Design: A minimalist interface built for effortless daily use.
Don’t leave your skin health to chance. Download Burnie today, start your countdown, and make sure you stay safe in the sun!

Hey, it's Burnie! This update makes me a lot smarter about your skin.
The biggest change: I now figure out your skin type with three quick questions, based on the scale dermatologists use. That makes my burn time estimates fit you even better. You can also import your details straight from Apple Health for a faster setup.
What else is new:
- I gave the products tab a full makeover: swipe through sunscreens one by one and save your favorites.
- Scan the barcode on a sunscreen bottle and I'll look it up for you (Netherlands and Belgium).
- Forgot to start the timer on time? You can now adjust the start time afterwards.
- You now choose from which UV level I send you a heads-up, right in the settings.
- Invite your friends with the new share sheet. Sun safety is more fun together.
- Plus lots of small fixes and polish behind the scenes.
Go enjoy the sun. I'll keep an eye on the time. Burnie
Build 887262335v1.3.02026-06-22 21:23:28
Hey, it's Burnie! Still working hard to keep you covered this summer.
The biggest change this time around is that your protection timer just got a whole lot smarter! I added a new Activity Selection feature, because what you are doing totally changes how long your sunscreen lasts. You can now tell me if you are keeping it relaxed, going swimming, or sweating it out with some sports, and I will automatically tweak your countdown timer to match.
For my friends in the Netherlands and Belgium, I also added a brand new Products tab! You can now easily browse and grab my top sun protection picks directly via bol.com and Amazon. Just a heads up that these are affiliate links. That means if you pick up your gear through them, I get a small commission that helps keep the app running!
Finally, I had a little fun with this update for everyone hitting up the summer stages. I tucked away a secret easter egg in the app just for you festival goers. I am super curious to see who spots it first, so definitely reach out and let me know if you find it!
Go enjoy the sun. I'll keep an eye on the time.

Hey, it's Burnie! I've been working hard to keep you better protected this summer.
The biggest change: I now show a live countdown timer right on your protection card. You can see the seconds ticking down, so you always know exactly when it's time to reapply. I also got smarter about the calculation - I now look at the full UV forecast for your protection window, not just the current reading. That means the number I show you actually matches the timer that starts.
A few other things I sorted out:
- My Dynamic Island timer now knows when to switch from hours to minutes
- I show temperatures and wind speeds in whatever units your phone uses
- I stopped using "near you" as a place name in your morning reminder - I'll use your real city from now on
- Your lock screen now gets a UV trend indicator from me
Go enjoy the sun. I'll keep an eye on the time.
