Red Scale
One photo, one number.
Colour is a terrible thing to keep in your head. You look at something today, look again tomorrow, and your eye quietly lies to you. Red Scale replaces the guessing with one steady habit: take a photo, get a number.
A 5 is deep and unmistakable; a 0 is barely there at all. Red Scale was never meant to hand you one dramatic answer — it’s built for the line you can only see across days.
One photo, one number
Red Scale reads how red a liquid looks and places it on a plain 0-to-5 scale. The number means the same thing every time, so “a little darker than last time” stops being a feeling and becomes something you can compare.
The grey-card trick
Phone cameras and room lighting are not honest narrators. Keep a plain grey or white card in the frame and Red Scale uses it as a fixed point — cancelling the colour your lighting added before it ever reads the sample.
Built for the trend
Readings live in folders — one bag, one tube, one container — so every number inside is comparable. Open a folder and you get a clean vertical timeline of stamped photos, newest at the top.
Private by the way it’s built
Everything Red Scale makes stays on your phone. No account, no server of ours holding your pictures, nothing uploaded or synced. When you want to send a reading, you tap share and choose where it goes.
How people use it
Morning and night, same setup
Same container, same lamp, twice a day — and the timeline tells you plainly whether today is climbing, holding, or settling back down.
A week in one folder
Instead of trying to remember Tuesday, you scroll and see the whole arc: steady, spiking, or easing off.
A picture to bring along
One quick shot with the grade burned right onto it, kept next to the date — so when you talk it through with someone later, you have the photo and the number.
A reading you can trust
Lighting and your phone’s camera always have a little say, so a grade is a confident estimate rather than an exact figure. The way to keep it honest is refreshingly boring: shoot in similar light each time, keep the grey card in frame, and compare readings inside the same folder. Do that, and the trend you’re watching is real.
