Yes. You can save or screenshot your scan results and show them to your doctor. This can be a helpful first step in prioritizing which moles need medical attention.
Yes. SkinScreener is an ideal tool for corporate health initiatives and preventive screening programs. It can be integrated into employee wellness strategies to support early detection and awareness.
Unfortunately SkinScreener is currently unavailable for Xiaomi users.
For all other smartphones, the technical requirements for using SkinScreener are iOS operating system version 13.0 or later or Android operating system version 9.0 or later. In order to have a correct risk assessment, a good working smartphone camera and flash is required. To ensure that the camera quality is good enough, a camera test must be performed before you can start scanning.
In the App, you are asked to take a photo of the designated skin area with the camera of your smartphone. The image is then run through our clinically proven neural network. You immediately receive the result. The risk assessment for skin cancer is indicated by an easy to understand 3 color code (low, medium, high risk). Green means low risk, yellow means medium risk, and red means high risk.
SkinScreener’s risk assessment is based on a clinically validated algorithm that was developed and tested in collaboration with the Medical University of Graz. The algorithm works with a neural network that uses artificial intelligence to ensure a risk assessment with an accuracy of 95%.
No. SkinScreener is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis. It supports early detection but cannot replace a physical examination or expert opinion. If the app flags a suspicious spot, consult a dermatologist.
Yes. SkinScreener was developed and clinically tested by a team of dermatologists, physicians, and biomedical engineers. SkinScreener is a Class I medical device and complies with the requirements of European Directive 93/42/EEC. A clinical study conducted at the Medical University of Graz (with more than 600 images from real patients) has proven that SkinScreener has an impressive accuracy rate of 95% in detecting skin cancer. We recommend that you read the instructions for use thoroughly before using the device for the first time.

If your scan result shows a LOW RISK, we advise to monitor the spot on your skin regularly and rescan it at least once a month. If your scan result shows a MEDIUM RISK or HIGH RISK rating, it means you should see your dermatologist as soon as possible and earlier than the recommended dermatological examinations. The specialist will then verify the results by further specialist examinations.
If your scan result shows a HIGH RISK rating, it means you should see your dermatologist as soon as possible. The specialist will then verify the results by further specialist examinations.
A skin lesion is an area of skin that has abnormal growth or appearance compared to the surrounding skin. In medicine, the term “lesion” usually refers to all types of skin changes and skin damage.
We monitored that the incidence of skin cancer has increased steadily worldwide in recent years. Statistically, the probability of developing skin cancer once in a lifetime is about 20%. The earlier skin cancer can be detected, the better are the chances of recovery. This is why we, with all our expertise from medical and technical backgrounds, have developed SkinScreener. We wanted to offer a smart way to determine the personal risk of altered skin areas with an App.

SkinScreener is a Class IIa medical device and complies with the requirements of European Directive 93/42/EEC. To ensure the highest possible technical and medical safety, our team of doctors and technicians is constantly working to secure and further develop our quality management system, which involves high costs. SkinScreener's risk assessment allows you to initiate appropriate medical treatment at an early stage and reduce the progression of skin cancer and its precursors. The first two scans are free, so you can download and test the app. If you want to perform more scans, you can choose a subscription model that best suits your needs.
Since skin spots develop over time, it is important to keep an eye on them. When using SkinScreener, be aware that gradual changes in shape, size, or color can lead to a new risk assessment.
One in five people develop skin cancer. Skin cancer and its preliminary stages are visible and palpable. Therefore, regular self-examinations can help you discover early on where new skin changes have appeared or existing moles have grown. The earlier skin cancer is detected, the higher are the chances of recovery.
