Patients say the APP is ESSENTIAL to their treatment

The UV Tactus mobile app is your key to more comprehensive and convenient phototherapy treatment.  

  • Simplified routine. While the UV Tactus device is what actually provides the medical treatment, the APP simplifies your phototherapy routine, and helps you follow the treatment instructions correctly every time. This means you can perform each phototherapy session with confidence and ease.
  • Better organisation. Patients say they feel calmer and better organised when they receive reminders and have a clear overview of their sessions and progress in the APP. Many note that it helps them stay on schedule — which is essential for effective treatment.  
  • Dose clarity. With the UV Tactus app, your phototherapy sessions and dose adjustments are shown clearly on the screen in the app, following the rules from the UV Tactus Instructions for Use or your doctor. With older phototherapy devices, you might need to write things down and do the maths yourself. 

A breakthrough in home phototherapy treatment

UV Tactus – the only medical home phototherapy device with a companion mobile app for patient convenience.

Unlike outdated analogue devices that leave treatment to guesswork, the app works hand in hand with the advanced UV Tactus phototherapy device to deliver precise, convenient and personalised care.

F.A.Q.

The UV Tactus app not only sends reminders to ensure no session is missed, but also acts as your personal phototherapy assistant and helps with dose calculations, treatment plan tracking and documentation. Unlike older phototherapy devices, it eliminates the need for manual logs and calculations. With its built-in calendar, you can easily track when and for which body part sessions are scheduled, how many you’ve completed, and how many remain. The app allows to follow therapy instructions easily. You just answer a few simple questions how your skin looks and feels and you get a suggestion what dose to input in the device or whether to skip a session that day. You can effortlessly track your progress, upload photos, add notes for specific treatments on certain days, and securely share updates with your doctor. This makes light therapy simple, effective, and stress-free from the comfort of your home.

The UV Tactus app helps you follow the official treatment protocol — the same NB-UVB phototherapy protocol used in hospitals and included in the UV Tactus User Instructions. At each session, the app suggests the appropriate light dose based on this protocol, taking into account your skin’s reactions and any missed sessions. This means you can easily manage your therapy without the complex manual calculations required by older devices. Simply follow the app’s guidance, and you’ll be using the dose recommended by the established medical protocol every time. The app is designed to support safe, correct, and effective treatment — always in line with the approved medical guidelines.

Yes, an internet connection is needed to access all the features of the UV Tactus app, but the device itself can be used without connection to the internet. You can complete your treatment sessions, and once you're back online, simply log your treatments in the app. This way, your treatment stays on track, even if you're temporarily without internet access, ensuring continuity and convenience throughout your therapy. 

The UV Tactus app is supported on both iOS and Android operating systems. This allows you to use the app on a wide range of smartphones and tablets. Just make sure your device is running the latest version of the operating system for optimal performance and compatibility. 

The UV Tactus app helps you follow the official NB-UVB treatment protocol — the same protocol used in hospitals and included in the UV Tactus User Instructions. It uses clear rules from your treatment plan and UV Tactus Instructions for Use to show you which dose to enter into the device.  

At each session, the app suggests the appropriate UVB dose according to the approved NB-UVB protocol — or recommends skipping the session if skin redness is still present — taking into account:

  • Your skin’s reaction

  • Protocol-based dose progression rules

  • Any missed or delayed sessions

This removes the need for complex manual dose calculations required by older devices. You simply follow the app’s guidance and apply the dose recommended by the established medical protocol every time. Designed to support safe, correct, and effective treatment, the UV Tactus app keeps phototherapy at home fully aligned with established clinical protocols and guidelines— combining precision, safety, and ease of use from start to finish.

IMPORTANT! In order to receive dose suggestions, and before starting treatment, a treatment plan must be created in the app. This ensures your therapy is personalised, structured, and aligned with medical guidelines from the very first session.

The NB UVB treatment protocol is already built into the app — you simply create your treatment plan for each affected body area in a few clicks. The app allows you to personalise the plan based on your skin type, set your treatment days and number of sessions, and, if advised by your doctor, adjust the starting dose and dose escalation from the default settings.

Yes — and for many patients, phototherapy at home is a game-changer. Home UVB therapy removes the need for frequent clinic visits and inconvenient appointment times, allowing treatment to start as soon as a flare-up appears — without waiting in queues. Because it fits more easily into daily routines, home treatment often improves adherence, which is closely linked to better treatment outcomes.

However, for phototherapy at home to be safe and effective, certain prerequisites must be in place:

  • A confirmed medical diagnosis that responds well to UVB phototherapy, such as psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo and others.
  • Use of a certified medical device

  • Accurate dosing (dosimetry)

  • Correct adherence to established NB-UVB treatment protocols

Without these safeguards, both effectiveness and safety may be compromised. If you have never used phototherapy before, or if your condition changes, medical advice is strongly recommended. Patients continue treatment independently once a plan is established, with periodic medical follow-up if needed.

Important! Not all light treatments can be done at home. Excimer laser and excimer light therapies must be performed in a clinical setting and are not suitable for home use.

How UV Tactus Enables Successful Phototherapy at Home:

  • UV Tactus is a CE-marked medical device designed specifically for safe and effective home NB-UVB therapy. It uses 16 high-performance LEDs to deliver the same narrowband UVB light used in dermatology clinics, combined with a professional-grade integrated dosimeter for precise dose control.
  • The UV Tactus app guides patients through the approved NB-UVB treatment protocol, calculates the correct dose for each session, advises when to skip treatment if skin redness persists, and generates treatment reports that can be shared with a doctor.

Together, this ensures medical light therapy is carried out correctly, safely, and consistently at home — with clinic-level precision and confidence.

Key takeaway: When done properly with the right medical device, treatment at home gives you freedom, control, and continuity of care.

Yes — UV Tactus can replace regular in-clinic sessions, but it does not replace the role of a doctor.

  • UV Tactus is a CE-marked medical device designed for safe and effective home NB-UVB (311 nm) therapy. It uses 16 high-performance LEDs to deliver the same narrowband UVB light used in hospitals and dermatology clinics, together with a professional-grade integrated dosimeter to ensure precise dose control.
  • The UV Tactus app supports patients in following the approved NB-UVB treatment protocol. It suggests the appropriate dose for each session, advises when to pause treatment if skin redness persists, and generates treatment reports that can be shared with a doctor.

Together, this allows the treatment to be carried out correctly, safely, and consistently at home, with clinic-level precision and effectiveness, without the need for frequent travel to a treatment centre. For many patients, UV Tactus effectively reduces the need for repeated clinic visits, offering greater convenience, continuity, and control, while remaining part of a medically guided care pathway.

Medical involvement remains essential:

  • A doctor should confirm the diagnosis and assess whether UVB therapy is appropriate

  • A doctor may adjust or review the treatment plan when required (the treatment protocol, based on international dermatology guidelines, is included in the UV Tactus Instructions for Use and integrated into the app)

  • Periodic medical follow-up is recommended, particularly if symptoms change

Important note: The UV Tactus mobile app is not a medical device. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not control the UV Tactus device. The app is an optional digital support tool for UV Tactus users, designed to help apply the prescribed treatment plan and follow the UV Tactus Instructions for Use more easily and consistently.

Psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo are well-established indications for NB-UVB phototherapy and respond very well to this treatment. When NB-UVB is recommended for a patient, home therapy is a wise and practical choice— particularly for vitiligo, where treatment often needs to continue over many months.

Phototherapy at home is safe and effective when done properly, with the right medical device and guidance.

UV Tactus: built-in safety and effectiveness through the app:

  • Uses established NB-UVB treatment protocols applied in dermatology clinics

  • Guides each session based on your skin reaction and adherence

  • Automatically calculates dose and helps track and follow treatment:

Precise dose control through UV Tactus device:

  • UV Tactus is a certified medical device delivering the same NB UVB type of light as in hospital or clinic.

  • It includes an integrated medical-grade dosimeter and measures UVB dose in millijoules (mJ) — not just time

  • Ensures each session delivers the exact prescribed energy, improving safety and consistency

In summary: The UV Tactus device and app work together to create a controlled, responsive system that mirrors clinic-based light therapy — allowing patients with psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo to treat safely, confidently, and consistently at home, even during long-term treatment.
