Can others use the toilet where UrinDx-Lite has been set up? 🚻

Managing a Shared Bathroom

We understand that others may need to use the bathroom where UrinDx-Lite (pronounced ur-in-dex) is installed. There is no need to remove the device from the toilet for other users.

Step 1: Establishing Your Baseline

To begin, you will manually click "Capture Sample" in your Starling app. This allows the device to learn your unique spectral fingerprint. This can take a few weeks.

Step 2: Enabling Automatic Capture

Once we have learned your baseline, we can enable the "Automatic Capture" feature. This allows the device to automatically record your samples when it recognizes you are using it.

⚠️ The 10-Foot Rule

During the Automatic Capture phase, please ensure your smartphone is at least 10 feet away from the bathroom when other people are using the toilet.

  • Why? This prevents the device from mistakenly identifying you as the user when someone else's sample is processed.

Step 3: Confirming Your Samples

We’ve added a verification step to ensure only your samples count toward your results.

  1. Navigate to the Home page of the app.

  2. Review the sample confirmation window.

  3. If the sample was not taken by you, simply select "Not Me."
