"My .02 is the melanoma app is not going to do anything."

I agree with you 100% that such an app has no utility in the real world, and I agree with the reasons that you give.

But isn't there also the possibility it could actually do significant harm?

For example, by lulling people into a false sense of security, where because they have been re-assured that lesions that are visible to them are not malignant by the reults from the phone app, they skip the thorough medical that would have revealed the melanoma between the toes or under the hairline?

That's one of the reasons that I think that the phone app is a rather desperate and poorly though out gimmick.

Another is that I doubt that the resolution on a phone picture will be sufficient to distinguish between, say, BCC and melanoma - or even between a freckle and a tumor.

If HDVY's other technologies are all that they claim, I fail to see why they would make such a big thing of a rather dubious application.
