1. Waterless
How much have you drunk today? Chances are you don’t remember this exactly. One of the most important heat wave apps is therefore Waterminder. Thanks to this smart app you can be sure that you drink enough during the day. This is actually always important, but certainly crucial with temperatures above thirty degrees.
In the app you register every glass you have drunk, in order to keep track of how much you drink per day. Thanks to an Apple Watch app and widget, registration only takes a few seconds. The app has a clear design and can be linked to Apple’s Health app. Drinking enough is important for your health, so this app can also come in handy after the heat wave.
2. UV Lens
We probably don’t have to tell you that good application is important when you go out into the sun, but which factor do you need based on the sun’s strength and what role does your skin color play in this?
The free app UVLens provides an accessible answer to all these questions. The app shows on a scale of five flames how strongly the sun shines and how long it takes, based on your skin, until you are burned. The app also gives useful tips to stay in the sun longer, such as taking a paracol with you, wearing a cap or hat and more.
You can also set an hourly update of the UV power during this heat wave, so that you are not surprised by an extra intense afternoon during a beach day.
3. Storm alarm
After rain comes sunshine, but this saying also works the other way around. You can count on this period of extreme heat to be concluded with heavy rain and thunderstorms. With the Buienalarm app you know well in advance when the sky will break open, so that you can quickly put your things inside.
4. Carrot Weather
Would you like more information about the weather in addition to rain in the coming period? Then we recommend Carrot Weather. This app is not only a very good and comprehensive weather app, but also has a good dose of sarcastic humor. Add to this the beautiful design and you have an app that is well worth its purchase price.

5. Deliveroo and Home Delivery
We don’t recommend standing with your head over a pan of boiling water this week, so apps like Deliveroo and Thuisbezorgd come in handy. Leave the kitchen alone and have your favorite food for this warm weather delivered to your home. The iPhone apps of these two services both have handy notifications so that you can see exactly how long it takes for the delivery person to ring your doorbell.
