Tangential to the post’s content (and the app is cool, by the way), but is anybody ever bothered by app/website landing pages that look like they’re AI-generated? I’m not even sure most of them are, but current AI models are so effective at creating those icon + feature grids that now every time I see one, my eyebrow raises so high it hits the ceiling.

In this case you are spot on, the landing page is AI generated, just because I've never enjoyed doing front-end web development myself. That plus this app is very deeply rooted in Apple's platforms (Essentially requiring an Apple Watch to be effective), the majority of users are coming from app store search directly, rather than through the landing page.

This is cool! It'd be interesting to correlate this with Vitamin D too.

Thanks! I'm looking into Vitamin D estimation for a future version, the main issue is there are a ton of factors that need to be considered, the main one is simply how much skin you have exposed when you are outdoors. A simple question but it requires a dedicated user to update the app with their wardrobe every day.
