Spacing Consistency Check
Measure rendered desktop and mobile composition, including readable body size, line height, line length, first-viewport density, and competing action purposes.

Consistent spacing makes relationships easier to perceive and reduces visual noise. FreeScan checks deterministic style evidence rather than rating aesthetic taste.
Passing evidence
Readable body copy, constrained prose lines, one clear above-fold action purpose, and a balanced first viewport on desktop and mobileCommon failing evidence
Sub-14px mobile body copy, cramped line-height, overlong prose lines, or more than three competing first-viewport actionsPossible false positives
- Dense application screens can legitimately expose more controls than a marketing page.
- Intentional asymmetry can support a clear composition.
How to fix it safely
- Increase undersized body text and cramped line-height.
- Constrain long prose measures.
- Reduce competing first-viewport action purposes.
- Use shared layout components for repeated relationships.
How to verify the fix
- Review the scanner's rendered desktop and mobile evidence.
- Compare repeated cards, sections, and form groups side by side at both breakpoints.
