What You'll See
Moments after uploading your photo, you will see a Room Preview with details about your scan.
Room Preview typically includes:
- The room name and image number (example: Bathroom, image 1).
- Date taken.
- Who performed the scan.
- A Room Score for that specific space.
Understanding Your Room Score
Room scores are weighted by their importance to your safety.
- High-risk, daily-use rooms (like a bathroom) start with a maximum score of 100.
- Lower-risk areas start with a lower maximum score because they have a smaller impact on your fall risk.
When safety issues or independence barriers are identified, points are deducted based on:
- Impact level (High, Medium, Low).
- The type of risk involved.
Higher impact issues deduct more points because they represent greater safety risk.
Your Room Score reflects the current safety condition of that space. You may see categories such as:
- Safety Issues: Immediate risks that could increase fall danger.
- Independence Barriers: Features that may make daily movement harder over time.
- Engagement Opportunities: Improvements that support long-term accessibility.
Each category shows the number of items identified. Items are clearly labeled and visually marked by Impact Level so you can quickly see what matters most first.
How to Read a Recommendation
Recommendations are organized with the most meaningful changes clearly labeled so you can prioritize with confidence. Each item expands into a detailed view when you tap on it.
Inside a recommendation, you may see:
- The title of the issue (for example, "Remove or Secure Bath Mat").
- The Impact Level (High, Medium, or Low).
- The Effort/Cost estimate.
The Concern
This explains why the item was flagged and how it may affect safety or independence.

High Impact: The most important safety upgrades to consider first. Changes that significantly reduce fall risk or improve safety.
Medium Impact: Improvements that meaningfully increase comfort or stability.
