## What is PlateCompass?

PlateCompass turns a photo into a straight answer about the food in front of
you. Point the camera at a meal, a menu, a nutrition label, or a barcode and get
a clear verdict, the cholesterol-relevant reasoning behind it, and one
achievable swap — without tracking a single calorie.

FEATURES
• Check a meal, menu, nutrition label, or barcode with the camera
• Ask plain-language questions like "burrito or poke bowl?"
• An LDL-specific verdict with the reasoning, input detail, and evidence behind it
• One practical swap or addition instead of a lecture
• Every legible dish grouped by likely LDL impact from a single menu photo
• Packaged foods read from the label, or looked up by barcode
• A history of recent checks, kept on your device and clearable at any time
• English and Canadian French

WHAT IT LOOKS AT
Guidance focuses on what actually moves LDL cholesterol: saturated and trans
fat, soluble fibre, whole grains, plant proteins, and unsaturated-fat
substitutions. Sodium and added sugars appear as broader heart-health context.

PRIVACY
No account and no sign-up. A photo or question is sent for analysis and is not
intentionally retained after the result comes back. Saved checks stay on your
device and never include the photos.

PlateCompass offers general educational food guidance. It is not medical advice,
diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for your doctor, dietitian,
or pharmacist.

Free includes 3 checks every 7 days, and the app shows how many are left before
you reach the limit. Plate Compass Pro removes the limit with a weekly, monthly,
or yearly auto-renewing subscription.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The
subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24
hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal
within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel
your subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase.
