MyCircadian App
by Sarah Kleiner Wellness
MyCircadian is an app that tells you when solar times happen based on your exact location, and helps you manage safe sun exposure by tracking your sunbathing sessions—considering skin type, cloudiness, how much clothing you’re wearing, the current UV index where you live, etc. I personally like using this app only for the lux meter (it’s recommended that your light environment at night not exceed 10 lux, which is nearly full-blackout, to keep from suppressing melatonin production). And for logging sunbathing sessions (paid version only). Otherwise, I use the Circadian app (a different app) for solar-timing notifications, because MyCircadian's notification customization is quite limited.

Our bodies are wired to thrive when we align with the natural cycles of light and dark. The MyCircadian App helps you effortlessly tap into this power by tracking various circadian signals based on your exact location:
Sunrise, UVA, UVB & Sunset: Know exactly when to soak up those crucial rays of sunlight for maximum energy, hormone production, metabolism & mood.
UVB Exposure & Vitamin D: Get the sunshine your body needs to boost your immune system and mood & avoid the risk of overexposure with the Vitamin D timer.
Lux Meter: Understand & optimize your light environment to ensure healthy metabolism, mood & melatonin production
Moon Phases: Track the phases of the moon to align with the natural ebb and flow of lunar energy.

Sarah made this video that walks people through the app's basics and shows the difference between free and paid.
In short, the paid version of the app offers more custom notifications and more extensive use of the lux meter, which helps you understand how brightness changes indoors vs. outdoors, as well as how bright your indoor environment is at night/upon waking. It’s recommended that brightness be at 10 lux or below when it’s dark out, so as to not decrease your melatonin production, so this feature helps you monitor that.
