Catch a diabetic foot problem before you can see or feel it
PodiaScan is a no-download web app for an about two-minute daily check for people living with diabetes. You take the temperature of seven spots on each foot — six on the sole, one on the top — and the app compares left with right and warns you — and your clinic — as soon as something changes.
See how a home check works
The home screen is built for large buttons and audio prompts. Tap each spot in order, compare left with right, and get an immediate green-or-red result.
Why temperature?
When tissue inside the foot becomes inflamed, the skin above it warms up — often days before you can see redness or feel soreness, and long before skin breaks down. Because both feet normally sit at a similar temperature, a difference of 2.2 °C between the same spot on each foot is a reliable early warning. That is exactly what PodiaScan measures for you every day.
Your daily two-minute check
1. Scan seven spots on each foot
Hold the thermometer to seven marked spots per foot — six on the sole and one on the top. The app tells you where to go next, in large text and out loud.
2. The app compares left with right
Each spot is matched with the same spot on your other foot. That left-right difference is the earliest warning sign there is.
3. Green means fine, red means call
A difference of 2.2 °C or more turns that spot red and, if you're linked to a clinic, tells them the same day.

Important
PodiaScan supports your foot care — it does not replace it. If you notice broken skin, spreading redness, swelling, discharge or a bad smell, contact your clinic or doctor urgently, whatever the app says.
Common questions
Do I need a special thermometer?⌄
Any handheld infrared skin thermometer. You read the temperature off the thermometer display and record each value in the app.
What if my clinic doesn't use PodiaScan?⌄
You can still use it on your own — it starts with a 14-day trial. Your readings and 90-day history are yours, and you can link a clinic later by entering their registration code.
Is my health data private?⌄
Yes. Your readings are stored in the EU, encrypted in transit and at rest, and only visible to you and the clinic you choose to link with.
How long does a daily check take?⌄
About two minutes. The app guides you through seven spots on each foot with large text and audio prompts.
