Your golden glow starts here. Golden Hour is the smart tanning companion that helps you build a natural tan safely. It combines real-time UV tracking, AI-powered skin analysis, and dermatologist-backed timers so you always know when to tan, for how long, and when to stop. SCAN YOUR SKIN, GET A PLAN Take a selfie and Golden Hour instantly detects your skin tone and Fitzpatrick type. Set your goal shade, and the app builds a personalized tanning plan with a realistic timeline — no guesswork. REAL-TIME UV FORECAST See today's hourly UV index for your exact location. Golden Hour highlights your ideal tanning window and warns you when conditions are too intense. A beautiful live chart shows UV levels from sunrise to sunset. SAFE SESSION TIMER Start a guided tanning session with scientifically calculated time limits based on your skin type, current UV, and SPF. The app reminds you when to flip for an even tan and alerts you before you overdo it. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Check in daily with a photo to watch your tan develop over time. See before-and-after comparisons, a tone progression timeline, and a progress score that tracks how close you are to your goal shade. VITAMIN D MONITOR Estimate your vitamin D intake during each session. Track your daily accumulation toward the recommended 600 IU goal. SPF GUIDANCE Get personalized sunscreen recommendations based on real-time UV and your skin sensitivity. Quickly set your SPF level and see exactly how it extends your safe exposure time. STATS & STREAKS Stay motivated with session streaks, lifetime statistics, weekly overviews, and a 30-day progress chart. Share your glow-up with friends using built-in progress cards.
