Finger and face camera scans — two ways to check in with Qorviva
Qorviva uses one consistent, unhurried process for both camera check-ins: a 3-second preparation followed by a 15-second capture. Finger PPG uses the rear camera and flash with a fingertip; Face rPPG uses the front camera and detects subtle colour changes in the face. Each result clearly separates the estimated pulse from signal quality and confidence so users can follow like-for-like personal trends.
What this covers
Place a fingertip lightly over the rear camera and flash. After a 3-second preparation, Qorviva uses one 15-second optical capture to estimate pulse and report signal quality and confidence.
Why it matters
Keep the face comfortably positioned inside the guide. After a 3-second preparation, Qorviva uses one 15-second front-camera capture to estimate pulse and report signal quality and confidence.

Turn information into a routine you can follow.

Face rPPG scan
Keep the face comfortably positioned inside the guide. After a 3-second preparation, Qorviva uses one 15-second front-camera capture to estimate pulse and report signal quality and confidence.
One consistent scan process
Finger and face scans use the same 3-second preparation and 15-second reading. Qorviva does not switch users between conflicting quick and deep camera timings.
Red, amber and green guidance
Live quality guidance helps the user adjust calmly before and during the reading. Qorviva shows result confidence and offers a single clear retry when the signal is unusable.
Saved to your personal history
Completed scan results can be timestamped and stored in the signed-in account so users can compare like-for-like readings over time.
Wellness estimate, not diagnosis
Camera readings can be affected by device hardware, movement, lighting, positioning and circulation. They are not a diagnosis or substitute for a validated clinical device.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers before you begin
What is Qorviva Finger PPG?
Finger PPG uses the phone’s rear camera and flash while the fingertip lightly covers the lens area. A 3-second preparation is followed by one 15-second capture used to estimate pulse and report signal quality and confidence.
What is Qorviva Face rPPG?
Face rPPG uses the front camera and analyses subtle changes in facial colour across video frames. A 3-second preparation is followed by one 15-second capture used to estimate pulse and report signal quality and confidence.
What can the scans show?
The short camera scan can show an estimated pulse, signal quality and confidence for personal trend awareness. HRV, breathing, recovery and other advanced metrics require a compatible validated device or approved partner source and are not inferred from this 15-second camera capture.
Is the first scan free?
Create a free account to receive one successful finger-camera pulse estimate, with signal quality and confidence. No card details are needed. Failed or poor-quality captures do not use the allowance. Your saved free result remains available when you return.
Does creating an account start the five-day trial?
No. Account creation and the free scan do not start a subscription or trial. Eligible new subscribers may choose a separate five-day Plus trial after reviewing a plan and completing secure payment setup. The chosen plan is charged after the trial unless cancelled before it ends.
Are camera scans medical tests?
No. They are wellness estimates for trend awareness and general health organisation. They do not diagnose conditions and should not replace validated medical devices, professional assessment or emergency care.
