Abstract: Healthy homes play an important role in maintaining the physical, mental, and social health of their residents. Inadequate housing environmental conditions, such as poor ventilation, minimal lighting, and high humidity, contribute to an increased risk of diseases such as ISPA, tuberculosis, and dengue fever. Apart from that, high housing density also impacts the mental and physical health of residents. The use of digital technology in the form of web-based applications has become an innovative solution for assessing and improving the health of the home environment. This research develops an application RumahQ Healthy Islami, which aims to help people objectively assess the condition of their home, record family illnesses, and provide education about the importance of a healthy home. This application is equipped with education, assessment, and assessment results features that allow users to obtain information, carry out home evaluations, and understand the necessary repair steps. Based on tests on 50 respondents, the majority of houses were rated as "fairly healthy" (54%), but 30% of houses were still in the "less healthy" category. The most commonly reported health problem was ARI (24%), which reflects the importance of improving the quality of the home environment. This application is designed to reach various groups of society, with the majority of respondents coming from secondary education levels (high school and junior high school) and lower middle income. This application is also capable of generating data that can be used for further analysis to support environmental health policies. The conclusion of this research shows that the application RumahQ Healthy Islamic succeeded in becoming a practical, educational, and relevant digital solution to support household health. Suggestions submitted include developing IoT-based features, interactive forums, and integrating applications with health services to increase their benefits and effectiveness. In addition, collaboration with government programs and stakeholders is needed to expand the reach of applications, especially in areas with limited internet access. With continuous innovation, this application can become a strategic tool in improving the health of the home environment and supporting the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs).
