Skin Check is a free simple and private skin spot photo tracker designed to help you monitor moles and other skin spots over time. Take a clear photo, choose the body area, and save each spot to your personal tracker. Skin Check helps you keep a visual history, compare new photos with previous ones, and learn about common skin findings through educational articles. The app uses on-device AI-assisted image comparison and simple visual observations to support your tracking routine. Results are educational only and are not a medical diagnosis. KEY FEATURES Track Skin Spots Over Time Save photos of moles and skin spots in one organized place. Each spot has its own history, body location, and latest check date. Photo History Add new photos over time to create a visual timeline. This can help you notice visible changes and discuss them with a dermatologist. Body Location Tracker Choose where each spot is located, such as back, chest, arm, leg, hand, foot, head, neck, or other areas. AI-Assisted Educational Comparison Skin Check compares your photo with precomputed educational skin descriptions and shows the closest educational match. This is not a diagnosis or risk score. Visual Observations The app can highlight basic visual observations such as photo quality, asymmetry-like patterns, border irregularity-like patterns, and color variation-like patterns. Education Library Read easy-to-understand articles about common moles, atypical moles, the ABCDE rule, seborrheic keratosis, cherry angiomas, and warning signs to discuss with a dermatologist. Private On-Device Processing Photos are processed on your device. Your skin tracking history stays on your device unless you choose to share it. Premium Access Unlock unlimited photo tracking, AI-assisted checks, photo history, and ongoing monitoring features. IMPORTANT MEDICAL NOTICE Skin Check is not a medical device and does not diagnose melanoma, skin cancer, or any disease. The app provides educational information and photo tracking tools only.
