How to Digitize Your Closet in 30 Minutes (Step-by-Step Guide)
โฑ๏ธ Time Required: 30 minutes
๐ฑ What You'll Need: iPhone with DGCloset app
Why Digitize Your Closet?
In today's fast-paced world, managing a physical wardrobe can be overwhelming. You buy new clothes, forget what you already own, and end up with duplicates taking up valuable space. That's where digitizing your closet comes in.
A digital closet gives you a complete visual inventory of everything you own, making it easier to plan outfits, avoid duplicate purchases, and maximize your wardrobe potential.
โจ What You'll Need
- ๐ฑ Your smartphone (iPhone recommended for DGCloset app)
- ๐ก Good lighting (natural light works best)
- ๐จ A clean background (white wall or plain floor)
- โฐ 30 minutes of uninterrupted time
- ๐ฒ The DGCloset app (download from App Store)
๐ฑ Step 1: Download DGCloset (2 minutes)
Start by downloading the DGCloset app from the App Store. The app is free and designed specifically for iPhone users who want to organize their wardrobe with AI-powered technology.
Once downloaded, create your account and complete the quick onboarding process. This takes less than 2 minutes and helps personalize your experience.
๐๏ธ Step 2: Organize by Category (5 minutes)
Before you start photographing, gather your clothes by category. This makes the process faster and helps the AI categorize items correctly. We recommend this order:
- ๐ Tops: T-shirts, blouses, sweaters, hoodies
- ๐ Bottoms: Jeans, pants, skirts, shorts
- ๐ Dresses: Casual, formal, seasonal
- ๐งฅ Outerwear: Jackets, coats, blazers
- ๐ Shoes: Sneakers, boots, heels, sandals
- ๐ Accessories: Bags, belts, scarves, jewelry
๐ธ Step 3: Photograph Each Item (15 minutes)
Here's where the magic happens. Using DGCloset's built-in camera feature, photograph each item against a clean background. The app uses AI to automatically:
- โจ Remove the background for a clean, professional look
- ๐ท๏ธ Detect the item category (shirt, pants, dress, etc.)
- ๐จ Identify colors and patterns
- ๐ Suggest tags and metadata
๐ก Pro tip: Lay items flat or hang them on a hanger for best results. The AI works best with clear, well-lit photos where the entire item is visible.
๐ค Step 4: Let AI Do the Work (5 minutes)
Once you've uploaded your items, DGCloset's AI takes over:
- ๐ท๏ธ Automatically categorizes each piece
- ๐จ Tags items by color, season, and style
- โจ Suggests outfit combinations
- ๐ฑ Creates a virtual closet you can browse anytime
You can review and adjust any AI suggestions, but in most cases, the system is remarkably accurate.
๐ Step 5: Start Planning Outfits (3 minutes)
Now that your closet is digitized, you can:
๐ก Tips for Success

Natural light from a window works best. Avoid harsh overhead lighting that creates shadows.

Whenever you buy something new, photograph it immediately and add it to your digital closet. This keeps your inventory accurate.
๐๏ธ Regular Decluttering
Use DGCloset's analytics to see which items you never wear. If you haven't worn something in 6+ months, consider donating it.
