SkinLately vs SKŌR
The short answer
This SKOR app review is written by a competitor, so take it with the appropriate suspicion and check the dated source at the bottom. SKŌR (spelled with the bar) is the closest product in our table to what we are building: it saves every scan and lets you put any two of them side by side, and it ties habit logging to how the score moved. It also scans the body, which we do not do at all.

The "what it reads" row uses SKŌR's own wording rather than ours. The vocabulary an app picks is one of the more informative things about it, and it is vocabulary we do not use ourselves.
What SKŌR does better
Side-by-side comparison of any two past scans, and habit logging tied to score movement — the closest thing in the group to what we are building.
Side-by-side comparison of any two past scans is the feature we most wish we had shipped first, and habit logging tied to score movement is the right shape for this problem — it is the difference between a number and an experiment. If you want that today rather than when an unreleased iPhone app arrives, this is the honest recommendation.
Where we went the other way
- Face and body versus face only. Their reading covers posture, muscle tone, symmetry and composition alongside the face. Ours stops at the face on purpose: the further a camera-based score ranges over a body, the harder it is to keep the wording away from judging how someone looks.
- Any two scans versus your own Day 1. Both of us compare you only with yourself, which is the thing we care most about in this category. Theirs lets you pick the two ends; ours anchors on Day 1 by default so the comparison is not chosen after you have seen the results.
- Scan any time versus a daily check-in. Theirs is scan-when-you-like with every scan kept. Ours is a ten-second daily habit with a streak, because the failure mode we designed against is not sampling rate, it is people stopping.
What we could not verify. Their prices are published in pounds and we print them in pounds. Converting them would put a number on this page that nobody is actually charged, and a converted price is exactly the kind of small invention that makes the rest of a comparison table untrustworthy.
Where SkinLately is worse
It is not released, and SKŌR is something you can install today. Ours is an iPhone app in development with no App Store listing. We also publish no figure for how far our own reading moves when nothing has changed — that study is still collecting — and we journal nothing, name nothing, and recommend nothing, all of which are features somewhere else in this table.
Frequently asked
Does SKŌR recommend products?
Not according to the source we checked — the table records it as no, on the same basis as ours. That puts the two of us in the same half of this category: measurement without a shelf to sell you.
Is SKŌR available now?
Yes, on iPhone, with Android announced. Ours is not released. That is the difference that matters most today and no feature table changes it.
Whose measurement is more consistent?
Neither of us has published a figure for how far a reading moves when nothing has changed, so anyone answering that is guessing. Ours is being collected in the open and the method was published first.
Is this SKŌR comparison neutral?
No, and pretending otherwise would be the dishonest version. It is written by a competitor. What we can offer instead of neutrality we do not have is checkable facts: every row above came from a source SKŌR controls, read on 2026-08-15 and linked at the bottom of this page, and every gap says "not verified" instead of being filled in. There are no affiliate links here and nobody paid to be included. The full table puts all 8 apps on the same rows.

We cite, we do not endorse. None of the sources below has any relationship with SkinLately, and none of them has reviewed this page.
- SKŌR's own listing or site, read on 2026-08-15 — every fact in the table above comes from it. joinskor.com
