Access Closet: Get Dressed

Getting dressed should be a choice, not a battle.

Access Closet turns a person's own real clothes into a simple, visual way to choose and communicate what they want to wear each day. Photograph the clothes they actually own and they appear as clear, tappable pictures, no reading required. Built from the ground up for accessibility, Access Closet is designed for people with cognitive or physical disability, and for the carers, support workers, family members and occupational therapists who support them.

HOW IT WORKS Add clothes in seconds. Take a photo or choose one from your library, and Access Closet lifts the item cleanly from its background so it looks like a real piece of clothing in the wardrobe. It even suggests the right category for you. Tap to get dressed. Tap any item and it drops onto the dressing area in natural body order - hats up high, shoes down low. Drag to fine-tune, or flick a piece away to take it off. No fiddly menus. Plan ahead. Keep up to four outfits side by side, plan the week in advance, and save favourite outfits to use again. Mornings get calmer when the choice is already made. Share the plan. Send a picture of today's outfit to a support person so everyone knows what the day looks like.
