## What is Compass AI Food Scanner?

Know what's in your food before it goes in your cart. Compass AI scans a product's barcode or ingredient label and gives it a clear purity score from 0 to 100 with a letter grade, plus a plain-English breakdown of exactly why it scored that way.

HOW SCORING WORKS
Scores come from a transparent, rules-based review of the ingredient list. Compass looks for things like added sugars, artificial dyes, preservatives, seed oils, natural-flavor ambiguity and ultra-processing, and it rewards simple, recognizable ingredients. The same product always gets the same score, and every point added or taken away is shown on the result screen.

SCAN ANYTHING
- Scan a barcode with your camera, or photograph an ingredient label.
- Product data comes from Open Food Facts and USDA FoodData Central.
- Recall information comes from the FDA's openFDA service.
- For bottled water, any specific concern is shown only when it is backed by a named source, such as an FDA recall or a Consumer Reports test, with the source and year shown. If no test data exists, Compass says so instead of implying the water was tested.

EXPLANATIONS THAT STAY ON YOUR DEVICE
On supported devices, Compass uses Apple's on-device intelligence to explain a score in everyday language. The explanation is generated on your device and does not change the score.

SHOPPING LISTS AND LIVE ACTIVITY
Build shopping lists with a score on every item. Start a shopping trip and follow your list's progress on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island with a Live Activity.

SCAN HISTORY
Every product you scan is saved so you can look back at it any time.

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
Open the app and start scanning. Signing in with Apple or email is optional, and you can delete your account from inside the app at any time.

Compass AI provides general information about ingredients and is not medical or nutritional advice. Talk to a qualified professional about your dietary needs.
